After World WarⅡ, Japan was a defeated nation, production stopped, people were poor; but despite the defeat, occupation, and collapse of the economy, because the bureaucratic system held firm, the government could act smoothly according to established laws and maintain social order and economic production, enabling the nation to quickly recover.
二次大戰後，日本成為戰敗國，生產停頓，人民窮困不堪，但是儘管打仗、儘管戰敗、儘管國家被盟軍佔領、儘管經濟已經破產，但是由於文官體系堅強穩定，環境雖變異，政府仍照原來的法令規定平滑地運作，維持住社會秩序和經濟生產，使得國家迅速復興。
