Abstract

Chris Suh's book, "The Allure of Empire," explores the complex history of the United States, Japan, and Korea in the early 20th century. Suh challenges the traditional narratives of white empires in Asia and white-only immigration policies by highlighting the complexities of Japanese, Korean, and Philippine interactions over empire and migration. The book examines the formation of the U.S. and Japanese empires, the intersection of U.S. relations with the Japanese empire and anti-Japanese movements at home, and the creation and breakdown of inter-empire cooperation between the United States and Japan. Suh's work sheds light on the interconnectedness of immigration policy and foreign policy in Asia and offers new insights into the Korean experience of colonization and its impact on U.S.-Japanese relations.
