  Following the end of WWII in Asia, the Allied powers repatriated over six million Japanese nationals from colonies and battlefields throughout Asia. This title analyzes how the human remnants of empire served as sites of negotiation in the process of the jettisoning of the colonial project and in the creation of the national identities in Japan.
