Research Abstract |
With the start of the American occupation of Japan, control of the censorship apparatus shifted to GHQ/SCAP(General Headquarters/Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers), which regulated public expressions in Japan from1945through1949.A Closer examination of the Prange Collection and others reveals another dimension to the Occupation period. They show that responses to censorship were not at all uniform, and that multiple intertwining factors underlined the discourse of the Occupation period : the thoughts of writers, the policies and actions of the publishers and editors, and the decisions of the censors.
