Islands of Discontent: Okinawan Responses to Japanese and American Power - Asia / Pacific / Perspectives
Laura Hein
A study of contemporary Okinawan culture, politics and historical memory. It argues that the long Japanese tradition of defining Okinawa as a subordinate part of Japan means that all claims of Okinawan distinctiveness necessarily become part of the larger debate over contemporary identity.
