Dr Chika Tonooka
I am an historian of modern Britain in a global context, with broad interests in intellectual history, international history and global history. I read History (BA) at St. Catharine’s College, Cambridge, and undertook an MA at the University of Tokyo before returning to Cambridge where I completed a PhD dissertation entitled ‘Japanese “civilisation” and ideas of progress in Britain, c.1880-1945’. I am currently completing a book based on this work.
