Table of ContentsReviewsEngaging with wider debates on the difficult divide between secular patriotic ritual and religious ritual, this monograph presents the first full-length study of Shinto shrines established in the ever-expanding Japanese sphere of influence between the late 19th and mid-20th centuries. Through her well-researched study, Shimizu discusses how Japan attempted to construct a multiethnic Shinto-based secularity and used the overseas Shinto shrines to instill new senses of time, space and morality in their newly acquired territories. * Ellen Van Goethem, Professor of Japanese History, Kyushu University, Japan * """Engaging with wider debates on the difficult divide between secular patriotic ritual and religious ritual, this monograph presents the first full-length study of Shinto shrines established in the ever-expanding Japanese sphere of influence between the late 19th and mid-20th centuries.

The book is a great resource for courses on religion, law, and politics, as well as colonialism, migration, and globalization. ... The historical narratives are engaging, and the contents are clear, comprehensive, and accessible for students and non-specialists. I strongly recommend Overseas Shinto Shrines and hope that it inspires further interest in Shinto research abroad. * Japanese Religions * Author InformationKarli Shimizu is an affiliated researcher at the Research Faculty of Media and Communication of Hokkaido University, Japan.
