Question
Write a short note on the rebuilding of the Japanese economy after its shattering defeat was called a post war 'miracle'.
Solution
The rapid rebuilding of the Japanese economy after its shattering defeat was called a post-war 'miracle'. But it was more than that it was firmly rooted units long history. The constitution was democratised only now, but the Japanese had a historic tradition of popular struggles and intellectual engagement with how to broaden political participation.
The social cohesion of the pre-war years was strengthened, allowing for a close working of the government, bureaucracy and industry. US support, as well as the demand created by the Korean and the Vietnamese wars also helped the Japanese economy.
