Bix argues that Hirohito was not a mere figurehead, but an active participant in the decision-making process that led to the war. He shows that Hirohito was aware of the plans for the attack on Pearl Harbor and that he approved the use of biological weapons against Chinese civilians.
Bix also explores Hirohito's role in the aftermath of the war, including his decision to renounce his divinity and his support for Japan's new democratic constitution.
Hirohito: The Pacific War 1941-1945 is a groundbreaking work of scholarship that will reshape our understanding of one of the most important figures in modern history.
