Considered as natural allies because they shared common enemies during World War II, Germany and Japan are often assumed to have carried out similar occupation policies. Yet specialists of these two countries, of both the European and Pacific fronts, generally work separately and these two “Co- prosperity spheres” have seldom been compared in detail. Moreover, this book is particularly valuable to those unfamiliar with East Asian history, since studies on the Japanese economic policy during the conflict—such as those by Chihiro Hosoya, Shinya Sugiyama, Yoshio Andō and Hideo Kobayashi—have rarely been presented in western languages. A French and a Japanese historian, Marcel Boldorf and Tetsuji Okazaki, started this project at the Paris International
