In this workshop, Dr. Barbara Molony (Santa Clara), Dr. Sabine Frühstück (UCSB), Dr. Sharalyn Orbaugh (UBC), and Dr. Hillary Maxson (Oregon) present their recent research and discuss the transwar positionality of women and children, resisting the tendency to see 1945 as a breakpoint and to instead analyze longer-term developments in years of both war and peace. This workshop was held on March 9, 2018 as part of the Meiji at 150 Workshop Series, hosted by the Centre for Japanese Research, the Department of History, and the Department of Asian Studies, with the support of the UBC Faculty of Arts.
