US Occupation of Japan Post World War Two

  • Resumen

  • After the surrender of Japan, the work to rebuild Japan and cement the country as one of the most important US allies in the Pacific began. Japan became strategically important after the fall of China to Communism. Japan being a democracy became of the utmost importance.

    The US occupation of Japan lasted from Japan’s surrender on Sept. 2, 1945 until 1952 when the treaty of San Francisco went into effect in April of that year.

    We discuss the creation of a new Japanese constitution and government and demilitarization of Japan.

    We also discuss the aftermath of the atomic bombs being dropped and the experiences of the survivors, who became known as Hibakusha. Their illnesses were feared, and they carried stigmas that came with what will become known as radiation poisoning.

    There is always more to learn!

    -Jimmy & Jean
