It contributes to the cultural and social history of the occupation of Japan by investigating the intersections of ordering principles like race, class, gender, and sexuality. It also reveals how sex and its regulation were not marginal but key issues in the occupation politics and postwar state- and empire-building, U.S.-Japan relations, and American and Japanese self-imagery. An analysis of the "sanitization of sex" uncovers new spatial formations in the postwar period. The regulation of sexual encounters between occupiers and occupied was closely linked to the disintegration of the Japanese empire and the rise of U.S. hegemony in the Asia-Pacific region during the Cold War era. An analysis of the sanitization of sex thus sheds new light on the configuration of postwar Japan, the process of decolonization, the postcolonial formation of the Asia-Pacific region, and the particularities of postwar U.S. imperialism. Sanitized Sex offers a reading of the intimacies of empires--defeated and victorious."--Provided by publisher. 611 27 $a Allied Occupation of Japan (1945-1952) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01351653 610 27 $a Chosen Kogei Kenkyukai $2 gnd 650 0 $a Prostitutes $x History $z Japan $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Japan $x Social aspects. $y Allied occupation, 1945-1952 $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Sexually transmitted diseases $z Japan $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Sex-oriented businesses $z Japan $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Soldiers $x Sexual behavior $z Japan. 650 0 $a Soldiers $x Sexual behavior $z United States. 650 7 $a Prostitutes $x Legal status, laws, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01079548 650 7 $a Sex-oriented businesses. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114670 650 7 $a Sexually transmitted diseases $x Prevention. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114973 650 7 $a Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01354981 650 7 $a Soldiers $x Sexual behavior. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01125307 651 7 $a Japan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204082 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 650 7 $a Prostitution $2 gnd 650 12 $a Sex Work $x history. 650 22 $a Sex Work $x legislation & jurisprudence. 650 22 $a Sex Workers $x history. 650 12 $a Sexually Transmitted Diseases $x prevention & control. 650 22 $a Military Personnel $x history. 650 22 $a Morals. 650 22 $a History, 20th Century. 651 2 $a Japan. 651 2 $a United States. 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Kramm, Robert. $t Sanitized sex. $d Oakland, California : University of California Press, [2017] $z 9780520968691 $w (DLC) 2017016883 830 0 $a Asia Pacific modern ; $v 15. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117032833.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=79D4CCD4580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
