青年劇場創立60周年記念公演「失敗の研究 ノモンハン1939」。ごく一部の権力者の「面子」のために、駒扱いされた命が根こそぎ奪われる不条理は、現代にも。女性差別と意思決定における多様性のなさ、硬直化が戦争と地続きである、という示唆も大切でした。9/23まで、新宿サザンシアターで。

Helion have a book on this coming up, first in a series (they also have a couple on Nomonhan etc). www.helion.co.uk/military-his...

Coox's massive works on Nomonhan (combined or in two volumes) and Changkufeng still offer up the most detailed coverage of IJA units in combat that I've seen. Drea's paper on Nomonhan is great and freely available here. apps.dtic.mil/sti/citation...
