Abstract

As a result, readers may be left wondering whether it was the fusion of Asianism and nationalism that Smith presents so fully, rather than Japan's wartime façade of Asianism, that explains its post-war diminution. Throughout the book, and especially in the Conclusion, Smith connects more recent expressions of Asianism by Chinese intellectuals and government leaders to the history that he has detailed, but without expressing the similarities between current China-centric and past Japan-centric regionalisms. In the final chapter, Smith looks at the wartime propaganda of the only avowedly Asianist regime in China, that of the Wang Jingwei government. [Extracted from the article]
