<p style="margin-bottom:5px"><span style="font-size:10.5pt"><span style="line-height:125%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Dear Scholar, Colleague,</span></span></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p style="margin-bottom:5px"><span style="font-size:10.5pt"><span style="line-height:125%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">We would like to introduce a new book from AKS Press that traces how imperial Japan came to regard Korean cattle as a resource and incorporated them into the colonial economy.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:5px"><span style="font-size:10.5pt"><span style="line-height:125%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">This book seeks to address a fundamental question: \u201cHow did Korean cattle become a resource of the Japanese empire?\u201d Covering the period from the 1890s to the 1910s, it examines the distribution, quarantine, and military use of Korean cattle from the perspective of resource history, shedding light not only on the involvement of commercial capital and state power but also on the everyday activities and responses of Korean farmers.</span></span></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p style="margin-bottom:5px"><span style="font-size:10.5pt"><span style="line-height:125%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">This is a complete Korean translation of <span style="font-family:"\ub9d1\uc740 \uace0\ub515"">\u5e1d\u570b\u65e5\u672c\u3068\u671d\u9bae\u725b</span>: <span style="font-family:"\ub9d1\uc740 \uace0\ub515"">\u755c\u7523\u8cc7\u6e90\u306e\u78ba\u4fdd\u3068\u690d\u6c11\u5730\u5316</span> (Imperial Japan and Korean Cattle: Securing Livestock Resources and Colonization), originally published in Japan by Koyo Shobo in 2023. It is part of the AKS Translation Series.</span></span></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:5px"><span style="font-size:10.5pt"><span style="line-height:125%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">In particular, this Korean edition makes a pioneering study of Korean cattle as a resource accessible to a wider range of scholars and readers. We expect it to be utilized in various fields, including colonial economic history, the history of East Asian exchange, and regional studies linking Korea with western Japan, such as Yamaguchi and Hiroshima Prefectures.</span></span></span></p>
