{"product_id":"us-occupation-of-okinawa-hideko-yoshimoto-9781925608885","title":"U.S. Occupation of Okinawa: A Soft Power Theory Approach","description":"Throughout twenty-seven years of military occupation, US public affairs activities aimed to persuade the local Okinawan public that the US administration of Okinawa should be maintained. The US maintains military bases around the globe while advocating democratic ideals, including freedom of the press. Yet, while declaring the occupation of Okinawa necessary for the defence of democracy, the US military administration vigorously repressed freedoms of speech, assembly, the media, and self-determination. This landmark study explores and uncovers the labyrinthine manipulations and mechanisms established to continue to defend the hard deployment of military forces through the soft power techniques of public relations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hideko Yoshimoto\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1925608883\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781925608885\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Trans Pacific Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 6.10w x 0.70d","brand":"Hideko Yoshimoto","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48519648510207,"sku":"9781925608885","price":84.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_448aab63-d85f-47f8-bf47-8a2dc61b0b4b.jpg?v=1778738009","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/us-occupation-of-okinawa-hideko-yoshimoto-9781925608885","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
