Morrissey College of Arts & Sciences
The total defeat of Japan and Germany in 1945 resulted in a prolonged time of military occupation of both countries by the United States and other powers. These early years of "starting over" on the behest of the victors proved crucial in the making not only of postwar Japan and Germany and their respective regions, Asia and Europe, but also of the United States. Students learn to become comparative historians as they study occupied Germany and Japan side by side, from demilitarization and democratization to the making of Americas most committed allies at the opening stage of the cold war.
