Japanese aircraft carriers: akagi, hiryu, soryu & kaga. It"s still a big ocean (blind man"s bluff) Fought between the u. s. and the japanese empire (may 1943) How other -isms: fascism, capitalism, socialism and liberalism function in war. Post revisionist: bipolarity (structure explains both opposition and rivalry) Phases of the conflict (6): poland and eastern europe, land-lease halted too suddenly, german reparations (again) excessive, no occupation zone for ussr in japan, the atom bomb , iran, greece & turkey.
