Summary

The Conclusion reveals the illusory and superficial nature of official German-Japanese solidarity. Space was needed for the understanding, misunderstanding, projection, imagination, delusion, accommodation, and identification that undergirded the bilateral rapprochement. It summarizes the book’s narrative and thesis on transnational Nazism. In Japan, the media treated Germany overwhelmingly positively with breadth and depth. When Hitler and the Nazi movement gained prominence in Germany in the early 1930s, every layer of the Japanese media transformed to espouse transnational Nazism. In Germany, the media also perceived Japan favorably, though with some peculiarities. The ascendancy of Hitler and the Nazi regime fundamentally altered the ideation of Japan on every level of the media through the propagation of transnational Nazism. It compares and contrasts Germany and Japan’s mutual depictions. It ends with commentaries on the enduring appeal and communicability of Hitler and Nazism, and the connection between transnational Nazism and spread of nativist populism in the twenty-first century.
