Description

Explore the complex landscape of Japanese wartime memory with this scholarly work from the Routledge Japanese Studies Series. Since the 1990s, debates regarding Japan's conduct during the Asia-Pacific War, official apologies, and compensation for victims of imperial policies have become central to national and regional politics. This book examines how the state, conservative legislators, and revisionist movements work to deny or undermine existing acknowledgments of responsibility for the country's wartime past. It provides a deep look into the struggle over historical truth and the role of various actors in the process of memory production. By looking beyond the state, the text examines the influence of progressive civil society groups and their efforts to contest official narratives. This is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in military history, Japanese politics, and the ongoing social debates surrounding the legacy of the Asia-Pacific War.
