The Council is pleased to present the 25th John W. Hall Memorial Lecture in Japanese Studies. David L. Howell (Robert K. and Dale J. Weary Professor of Japanese History and Professor of History at Harvard University) presented "Institutional Osteoporosis in Late Tokugawa Japan” on February 20, 2025.
In this talk, Professor David Howell will diagnose the late Tokugawa regime with institutional osteoporosis, a slow hollowing-out of structures not designed for the stresses of social and economic change. Such change did not kill the regime, but it did enfeeble it, so that when Western imperialism gave it a decisive shove, it suffered something like the broken hip that marks the beginning of the final decline for too many elderly patients. He will draw on several examples from the hinterland of Edo (modern Tokyo) to illustrate his argument.
