- In Architects of Occupation, Dayna L. Barnes describes an informal policy network of presidents, bureaucrats, think tanks, media experts and Congressmen who shaped postwar planning in Japan. The study draws on wide range of sources, including government reports, records, letters, memoirs, diaries, and manuscripts written by policymakers to trace the rise and spread of ideas across the policy network. This careful and complex research brought together data from thirteen archives spread across three continents. The resulting book contributes a new facet to the substantial literature on the occupation and tells a surprising new story about World War II.
