Bøker av Paul H. Kratoska

Based on documents drawn from archives in Asia and in the United States and the United Kingdom, this book looks at the Japanese labor policies across the occupied territories of Asia during the war years. It also provides a context for examining Japanese colonialism, and relations between Japan and the territories occupied by its military forces.

Using surviving administrative papers, oral materials, intelligence reports and post-war accounts by Japanese officers, this book presents a picture of life in occupied Malaya and Singapore. First published in 1998, this updated edition incorporates information from newly translated Japanese documents and other recent discoveries.
