Abstract

"Japan's Ocean Borderlands: Nature and Sovereignty" by Paul Kreitman is a well-researched book that explores the history of Japanese and Pacific islands through the lens of sovereignty and nature. The book focuses on uninhabited islands that were important for resource extraction and conservation efforts. It examines the competition between Japan and the United States over these islands, as well as the role of bird islands in defining Japan's borderlands. The book also discusses the politics of conservation in the dispute over the Senkaku Islands. Overall, the book provides valuable insights into the past and present dynamics surrounding these islands. [Extracted from the article]
