Speaker: William Marotti teaches modern Japanese history, with an emphasis on everyday life and culturalhistorical issues, at UCLA, where he is also Chair of the East Asian Studies M.A. Interdepartmental Degree Program. His current project, “The Art of Revolution: Politics and Aesthetic Dissent in Japan’s 1968” (under contract, Duke University Press), follows this work with an expanded consideration of the politics of the 1960s in Japan, and their articulation with the global phenomena of the decade

This event is co-organized and co-sponsored by the MSU History Department and the MSU Asian Studies Center, made possible by the MSU Japan Council Endowment and the US Department of Education Title VI Grant.
