Description

Explore a significant chapter of 20th-century history with this hard cover edition from Routledge. This book examines the harrowing experiences of the comfort women who were forced into prostitution to serve the Japanese Imperial army during World War II. It provides a detailed account of the appalling conditions of sexual slavery faced by these women. Through the use of many primary sources, the author connects military controlled prostitution with enforced prostitution for the first time. The text also reveals new information regarding the role of US occupation forces in military controlled prostitution and the subsequent efforts to cover up such policies. This work offers a deep look into the transformations of Asia during and after the war, making it a necessary addition for readers interested in military history and the origins of World War II conflicts.
