CJR ANNOUNCEMENTS

In the Meiji at 150 Podcast, host Professor Tristan Grunow (UBC, Department of History) interviews specialists of Japanese history, literature, art, and culture located on campus or who come to UBC for public events. Topics covered will range from the position of the Meiji Restoration and Meiji Period in each scholar's research, to how they view the significance of the Restoration in Japanese and global history, and finally to how they teach the Meiji Period in their classrooms.

In this episode, Dr. Dierkes analyzes how the Meiji Restoration is presented in history textbooks in Japan.  We compare the historiography of the Restoration in Japanese and Western scholarship, as well as discuss recent issues surrounding textbooks in both Japan and the United States.
