Marnie S. Anderson specializes in the social and cultural history of modern Japan. She received her B.A. from Smith College and her M.A., Certificate in Women's Studies, and Ph.D. from the University of Michigan. Her recent book, A Place In Public: Women's Rights in Meiji Japan (Harvard University Asia Center, 2010), examines discourses about gender, citizenship and the nation in the late nineteenth century. Her new project is a study of the content and significance of Japanese women’s political activism at the local level in the 1870s and 1880s.
Her course offerings include two surveys of Japanese history from ancient times to the present, a survey of modern East Asia, and specialized courses on gender in Japanese history, World War II in East Asia, social protest and images of Japanese women.
