Description

This scholarly work examines how Japanese civil society groups contest and shape war memory regarding the Asia-Pacific War since the 1990s. The book analyses the tension between state narratives, conservative legislators, and grassroots revisionist movements that have increasingly denied or undermined Japan's acknowledgments of wartime responsibility. By focusing on progressive civil society organisations, the study provides essential insight into how memory production occurs beyond state control, exploring questions of Japanese wartime conduct, formal apologies for aggression, and compensation to former victims of imperial policies. Part of the prestigious University of Sheffield and Routledge Japanese Studies Series (volume 49), this academic text offers a nuanced understanding of contemporary Japanese politics and how competing groups shape the nation's reckoning with its twentieth-century past.
