Zusammenfassung: | At the close of the Second World War, it became the policy of the United States to cause the permanent demilitarization of Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan by their compulsory democratization during a period of military occupation. For American leaders, the indispensable precondition of the democratic political order was the rule of law. This book, then, tells the story of how American agencies designed and implemented the two greatest law reform projects in the history of the world. It is a comparative study of American action and German and Japanese reaction to directed legal and political change. The book explores the capacities and incapacities of mid-20th century Americans in remaking foreign legal and political ideas and institutions. It investigates how and why American agencies helped construct and then, in the first phase of the Cold War, undermine liberal legal revolutions in Germany and Japan.-- |

Kostal Cambridge, Massachusetts Harvard University Press 2019 1 online resource text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Print version record Includes bibliographical references and index At the close of the Second World War, it became the policy of the United States to cause the permanent demilitarization of Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan by their compulsory democratization during a period of military occupation. For American leaders, the indispensable precondition of the democratic political order was the rule of law. This book, then, tells the story of how American agencies designed and implemented the two greatest law reform projects in the history of the world. It is a comparative study of American action and German and Japanese reaction to directed legal and political change. The book explores the capacities and incapacities of mid-20th century Americans in remaking foreign legal and political ideas and institutions. It investigates how and why American agencies helped construct and then, in the first phase of the Cold War, undermine liberal legal revolutions in Germany and Japan.-- Provided by publisher Introduction: Laying down the law in Occupied Germany and Japan -- 'The destruction of philosophies': planning the legal reconstruction of Germany and Japan -- Occupying the legal other: the subjugation of the German and Japanese legal systems -- Captive constitutions: remaking constitutional law in Occupied Germany and Japan -- Crafting liberal courts: reconstituting the German and Japanese judiciaries -- Clearing the spiritual rubble: reforming criminal justice in Occupied Germany and Japan -- Twilight of the gods: the rise and fall of civil liberties in Occupied Germany and Japan -- Conclusion: Laying down the law: Americans as legal revolutionaries Law American influences History 20th century.
