Japan’s economy was greatly affected by the atomic bombs

dropped on both Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Japan’s

economic recovery as a result of this incident transformed

Japan’s economic growth which has become known as the

“Economic Miracle.” The bombs caused Japan to

reconstruct many more facilities in which the economy

moved forward. The Economic Planning Agency, which

used to be known as the Economic Stabilization Board,

helped Japan to become one of the leading economic

nations. The United States also contributed to much of

Japan’s recovery by occuping it from 1945-1951. After the

bombs shattered the cities on August 6 and August 9 in

1945 the war was concluded. Japan had many parts to pick

up such as the deaths of innocent citizens and the

dilapidation of their major cities. Peter Tasker (40) mouthed

“When the casualties were counted they calculated to more

than three million people and left more than ten million

people lacking housing.” The war forced the economy to be

cut off from its normal flow of trade. That was hurtful

because Japan needed to trade with other nations to receive

money to rebuild their damaged cites. Many Japanese

to turn it into a military power and help to get them out of the

really have a choice but to listen to the Americans because

stayed on it to survive the post war age. Edwin Reischauer

built. Some of the facilities that were damaged had to be

presumably so shocked at what surrounded them that they
