 Bm\n\nThe dissolution of Japanese Empire had been unique in these senses t
 hat  (1) firstly\, it was done by the allied powers as a result of the de
 feat with forced evacuation of its residents to its original territories d
 isregarding economic breakdown of each region\, (2) secondly the dissoluti
 on was originally planned by the US and UK agreement as a part of innovati
 ve allied reparation policy to convert such Japanese properties as left in
  ex-colonies for the basic infrastructure and industrial facilities of ind
 ependent nations\, ROC and a unified Korea in due course of its independen
 ce\, (3) thirdly the reparation policies had eventually been transformed i
 nto economic corporation programs by Japan after 1947 in proportion with t
 he revival of Japanese economic powers\, not only because of cold war but 
 because technology transfer had been difficult to be managed within a few 
 years.\n\nHow such a unique reparation policy and development have been li
 nked with contemporary history issues?  I want to start arguing this poin
 t\, focusing upon Edwin Reischauer's role for formulating US inter-mediati
 on of the normalization process between Japan and South Korea\, who also a
 dvocated regional studies of Asia as a region\, focusing upon each nationa
 l emotion and psychology enframed with historical memories and democratic 
 values\, which should be reflected upon diplomacy.\n\n[caption id="attachm
