杰出的日本近现代史学家John Dower将目光投向了第二次世界大战刚结束后的时期。这项全新研究借鉴了海量的日本文献史料，阐明了惨重的战败以及随之而来逾六年的美军占领，如何以战胜国与战败国皆始料未及的方式影响了日本社会的各个阶层。《Embracing Defeat》的伟大成就，在于生动刻画了日本人迎接“从头再来”挑战的无数种方式——从关乎昭和天皇命运的高层政治操弄，到

我大部分内容都是从约翰·道尔（John Dower）的《拥抱战败：第二次世界大战后的日本》（Embracing Defeat: Japan in the Wake of World War II）里读到的。这是一本大部头，涵盖了占领时期的很多方面，不仅限于经济，但我发现它引人入胜而且非常好读。现在看稍微有点过时了，毕竟……
The book where I read most of this from is Embracing Defeat: Japan in the Wake of World War II by John Dower. It's a big book, and covers a lot about occupation, not just economics, but I found it engrossing and quite readable. It's a little out of date now, being…
约翰·道尔的《拥抱战败》（Embracing Defeat）。日本在二战中战败的历史人尽皆知，但鲜为人知的是，日本是如何从一个准政教合一的军事独裁国家，转变成今天这样的自由民主国家的。……
Embracing Defeat by John Dower. The history of Japan's defeat in World War II is well known, but less known is how Japan transformed from a quasi-theocratic military dictatorship to the liberal democracy it is today.…
《喝出来的历史》（Drink: A Cultural History of Alcohol），我最近在一个帖子里聊过它：https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10146846。在那之前读的是《拥抱战败：第二次世界大战后的日本》（Embracing Defeat: Japan in the Wake of World War II）。我决定读它是因看了一部讲投降后不久那段时期的烂片，然后我意识到自己对那段历史几乎一无所知。……
"Drink: A Cultural History of Alcohol", which I talked about in a thread recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10146846 Before that, it was "Embracing Defeat: Japan in the Wake of World War II". I decided to read it because I saw a kinda not great movie about the period immediately after surrender, and I realized it was something I knew almost nothing about.…
> 我不知道你是戴着什么滤镜看这事的……主要来自读布鲁玛的《创造日本》，以及道尔（Dower）的《无情之战》（War Without Mercy）和《拥抱战败》（Embracing Defeat）。佩里准将到来之前的幕府统治很残暴，这跟日本后来搞帝国主义的诱因没有任何关系。
> I don't know what lens you are looking at this through... Mostly from reading Buruma's Inventing Japan, and Dower's War Without Mercy and Embracing Defeat. The fact that the pre-Perry regime was nasty has no bearing on the causal factors of Japan's later imperialism
……将卖淫和非婚亲密接触均定为非法，报告的强奸案数量激增，表明卖淫和唾手可得的女性压制了强奸事件的发生。> 约翰·道尔在他的《拥抱战败：第二次世界大战后的日本》中，引用了作家金子吉美（Yoshimi Kaneko）的说法，即在美日资助的慰安所营业期间，“日本女性遭受强奸和侵犯的数量大约是每天40起”，……
…both prostitution and fraternization illegal, the number of reported rapes soared, showing that prostitution and the easy availability of women had suppressed incidents of rape. > John Dower, in his Embracing Defeat: Japan in the Wake of World War II, cites author Yoshimi Kaneko's claim that while the U.S./Japanese-sponsored brothels were open “the number of rapes and assaults on Japanese women were around 40 a day,”…
……被摧毁，事情可能会变得非常糟糕，尤其是在日本。我找不到确切的出处，但我记得在 John Dower 的《Embracing Defeat》中读到，1947/1948 年成年人平均卡路里摄入量降至约 1200 千卡。那个时期对日本至今仍有巨大影响，包括通过黑市形成的东京建筑。日本和德国都有强大的军事政府文化，并成为了可靠……
…destroyed, and things could have gone really badly, especially in Japan. I can't find the reference right but I remember reading average adult calorie intake to drop to ~1200 kcals in 1947/1948 in "embracing defeat" by John Dower. That period has a huge influence on Japan to this day, including architecture of Tokyo through black market. Both Japan and Germany had strong military govt culture, and became reliably…
