Professor Faison is the author of Managing Women:
Disciplining Labor in Modern Japan (University
of California Press, 2007), a book that examines the
efforts by Japanese industrial managers, the state,
and social reformers to define women engaged in wage
labor during the interwar period (1920s and 1930s) as
gendered imperial subjects. Professor Faison has presented
her work at a wide variety of conferences and spent
the 2003-2004 academic year as a post-doctoral fellow
at the Yale Council on East Asian Studies. She was among
the first faculty at OU to teach a Presidential Dream
Course in 2004. She is now working on a study of citizenship
in modern Japan that will examine the history of Japan’s
family registration (koseki) system. Regularly taught
courses include surveys on East Asian history and two
upper-division surveys of Japanese history, a history
colloquium on “Japan and the Atomic Bomb,”
a history capstone titled “Remembering Wartime
in Japan,” and an International and Area Studies
course titled “Gender in East Asia.” She
has also taught a graduate seminar on “Race and
the Culture of Japanese Imperialism” and has team-taught
a course titled “Germany and Japan in the Age
of Total War.” Professor Faison received her Ph.D.
from the University of California, Los Angeles in 2001.
