Opis

This book explores the contemporary ‘boom’ in Japanese media representations of the recent past. Hidaka provides a comprehensive account of an under researched contemporary Japanese media phenomenon by exploring why this nostalgia has been sparked at this particular historical juncture and how that period is represented in the Japanese media today.
