To Have and Have Not Southeast Asian Raw Materials and the Origins of the Pacific War

38.29£

Publisher: University of California Press

Author: Jonathan Marshall

Jonathan Marshall makes a provocative statement: it was not ideological or national security considerations that led the United States into war with Japan in 1941. Instead, he argues, it was a struggle for access to Southeast Asia's vast storehouse of commodities-rubber, oil, and tin-that drew the United States into the conflict. Boldly departing from conventional wisdom, Marshall reexamines the political landscape of the time and recreates the mounting tension and fear that gripped U.S. officials in the months before the war.
