Previous studies share the assumption that the United States was in a near-monopoly position to shape the postwar development in Japan as well as in the Asia-Pacific region. The book goes on to modify the prevailing view that American hegemony not only eroded under its own weight, but was never absolute in any case. Japan, a former enemy, eventually became America's main regional ally in the Asia-Pacific region.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51931021279520,"sku":"NEW0415947529","price":268.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/pitfall-or-panacea-the-irony-of-us-power-in-occupied-japan-1956-1952-0415947529","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
