Modern Japan, Empire and Imperialism, Intellectual History, Japanese-Soviet Relations

My research and teaching interests center on imperial Japan, collaboration and resistance, and social/ist imaginaries.  

My book, Revolution Goes East. Imperial Japan and Soviet Communism, examined the impact of the Russian Revolution of 1917 on the Japanese Left and Japan's imperial policy. My second project is a comparative study of Japanese and Soviet empires and their colonial policies on the Mongolian territories.
