(2017) Immediately after the end of WWII, Douglas MacArthur, the Supreme Commander of the United Nations forces, made the assertion that Japan would never be able to return again as a world power. Despite his prediction, Japan ascended into the world's second largest economy in just over two decades. How did Japan achieve this "miraculous" comeback? This episode searches for the answer from newly released documents and audio cassette tapes of leading figures during Japan's rapid economic growth, including politicians, government officials, and business persons.
