Imperial Japan + Export Controls = Pearl Harbor!?

What can US-China relations learn from US-Japan relations in the leadup to WWII? To discuss, I’m joined by Stony Brook University’s Michael Barnhart, author of the 1987 Japan Prepares for Total War: The Search for Economic Security, 1919–1941 and the more recent Can You Beat Churchill?: Teaching History through Simulations (https://www.amazon.com/Can-You-Beat-Churchill-Simulations/dp/1501755641), with Scholar’s Stage essayist Tanner Greer (@Scholars_Stage) cohosting. We discuss What motivated Japan to invade China Why FDR was particularly worried about a Japanese invasion of the USSR Why Japan and the Nazis thought the West would be on their side The benefits of paying attention to mid level bureaucrats For an ad-free feed, please consider supporting ChinaTalk on Patreon or Substack!
