    "As the first international conflict of the twentieth-century, the Russo-Japanese War attracted much contemporary global interest. This is the first full-length study to examine the war from the perspective of its impact on Japanese society, and sheds new light on its implications for modern Japan. What did the war mean to the Japanese people and how did they respond to it? Naoko Shimazu presents a fascinating and highly innovative account of the attitudes of ordinary Japanese people towards the war through a wide range of sources including personal diaries, letters, and contemporary images. She deals with themes such as conscripts and battlefield death, war commemoration, heroic myths, and war in popular culture. Challenging the orthodox view of Meiji Japan as monolithic, she shows that there existed a complex and ambivalent relationship between the Japanese state and society."--BOOK JACKET.

    Introduction: Collective Memories of Sexual Slavery under the Japanese Imperial Military -- Chapter 2 - The Memories of Sexual Slavery in Japan from 1945 to the 1960s: Romantic Stories of Forbidden Love -- Chapter 3 - The Memories of Sexual Slavery in Japan from the 1970s to 1990: Japanese War Guilt, Victims, and Romanticized Memories -- Chapter 4 - The Memories of Sexual Slavery from 1991 to 2015: Nationalist Memories -- Chapter 5 - The Memories of Sexual Slavery from 1991 to 2015: Progressive Memories -- Chapter 6 - The Memories of Sexual Slavery in Japan from 2015 to the Present: The 2015 Bilateral Agreement and 'Comfort Women' Statues -- Chapter 7 - Reflections on Memories of Sexual Slavery in Japan and South Korea. "Non-Western Colonization, Orientalism, and the Comfort Women examines the collective memory of sexual slavery under the Japanese Imperial Military, a topic euphemistically known as the "comfort women." Examining various artifacts in Japan over the past decades, the author argues that Korean women were exoticized similarly to "Orientals" by Western Orientalists"--

    "This book brings together discussions of leading aspects of the Asia-Pacific War, which still have huge relevance today. From the development of war guilt to the vivid effect of art on bringing alive the realities of the war, it analyses a diversity of post-war issues in the Pacific Basin. Organised into five parts, the book begins by scrutinizing the conflicting attitudes towards Japanese post-war society and identifies the various legacies of the war. It also provides an examination of the aftermath of Hiroshima and Nagaski, before studying contemporary civil society and analysing the way memories of the war have changed with time. Each of the chapters discusses the Japanese government's inability to achieve reconciliation with its neighbours, despite the passage of 70 years, and the denial of the atrocities committed by the Imperial Army. Arguing that this policy of continuous denial has triggered the rise of civil movements in Japan, this book will be useful to students and scholars of Japanese History and Japanese Studies in general"...

    "Since the 1990s, questions of Japanese wartime conduct, apologies for aggression, and compensation to former victims of the country's imperial policies, have been brought to the fore of national and regional politics. The state is undoubtedly the most important actor in the process of memory production and along with conservative legislators and the grass-root revisionist movement there has been a consistent failure to acknowledge responsibility for Japan's wartime past. However, to fully comprehend war memory in Japan, due attention must be paid to competing discourses that demand an alternative view, and only then can the true complexity of Japanese war memory and attitudes towards the legacies of the Asia-Pacific war be understood. The Politics of War Memory in Japan examines the involvement of five civil society actors in the struggle over remembering and addressing the wartime past in Japan today. In studying progressive war memory activists, it quickly becomes clear that the apologia by conservative politicians cannot be treated as representative of the opinion of the majority of the Japanese public. Indeed, this book seeks to remedy the disparity between studies devoted to the official level of addressing the 'history issue' and the grass-root historical revisionist movement on the one side, and progressive activism on the other. Furthermore, it contributes to scholarly debates on the state of civil society in Japan, challenging the characterisation of Japanese civil society as a depoliticised space by demonstrating a more contentious side of civil society activism"..

    Offering a critical account of the ways in which the US deployed its war power under liberal auspices throughout the Cold War, this book casts a geopolitical lens onto cultural productions preoccupied with black freedom, Asian liberation, and Pacific Islander decolonization against the backdrop of U.S. militarism in the Asia-Pacific region. The book examines the centrality of this militarism to the political and cultural imagination of racialized subjects in an era of serial U.S. "police actions" abroad and what writers such as James Baldwin, Ralph Ellison, and W.E.B. Du Bois described as a police state at home, contending that U.S. informal warfare relied on racial counterintelligence campaigns that structured not only America's hot wars in Asia but also its approach to radical activism, racial protest, and urban riots on the domestic front. As the author demonstrates, even as U.S. war politics may have taken the guise of anti-racist, multicultural alliance-building and marshaled the rhetoric of mutual defense, they gave rise to dissident visions of human rights that converged in a critique of the unilateralism of U.S. militarism, one that did not point in the direction of today's interventionist human rights politics. The book is in critical conversation with a spate of recent publications that might be called "Afro-Asian," but unlike these last, which tend to emphasize cross-racial solidarity, it highlights racial collusion, collaboration, and alignment with the post-1945 U.S. war machine as a paradoxical effect of the securitized "anti-racism" of the so-called Pax Americana. For Asian writers, artists, and filmmakers, Ōe Kenzaburo, Nakazawa Keiji, Byun Young-Joo, and Carlos Bulosan, the imagination of postcolonial or post-imperial justice is troubled by the period's deferral of decolonization. Literature by Miné Okubo, Chang-rae Lee, and Robert Barclay variously takes immigration, repatriation, or relocation as its theme, yet looming over this conditional incorporation into the postwar U.S. body politic is the specter of America's militarism in Asia. If these works by Asian American and Pacific Islanders implicitly query whether material redress is satisfied through U.S. citizenship or economic assistance, the major African American writers examined in this study critique civil rights as too narrow a horizon for racial democracy. Positing Jim Crow as war without end, they seek a vernacular for racial justice that transcends national boundaries, and in the case of Ellison and Baldwin, politicize black freedom via homology with historic U.S. foes, the Axis and the Vietcong. If visions of redress imply an obligation to restructure, the works assembled here lay bare the under-theorized composite nature of U.S.

    "As the first international conflict of the twentieth-century, the Russo-Japanese War attracted much contemporary global interest. This is the first full-length study to examine the war from the perspective of its impact on Japanese society, and sheds new light on its implications for modern Japan. What did the war mean to the Japanese people and how did they respond to it? Naoko Shimazu presents a fascinating and highly innovative account of the attitudes of ordinary Japanese people towards the war through a wide range of sources including personal diaries, letters, and contemporary images. She deals with themes such as conscripts and battlefield death, war commemoration, heroic myths, and war in popular culture. Challenging the orthodox view of Meiji Japan as monolithic, she shows that there existed a complex and ambivalent relationship between the Japanese state and society."--BOOK JACKET.

    "This book brings together discussions of leading aspects of the Asia-Pacific War, which still have huge relevance today. From the development of war guilt to the vivid effect of art on bringing alive the realities of the war, it analyses a diversity of post-war issues in the Pacific Basin. Organised into five parts, the book begins by scrutinizing the conflicting attitudes towards Japanese post-war society and identifies the various legacies of the war. It also provides an examination of the aftermath of Hiroshima and Nagaski, before studying contemporary civil society and analysing the way memories of the war have changed with time. Each of the chapters discusses the Japanese government's inability to achieve reconciliation with its neighbours, despite the passage of 70 years, and the denial of the atrocities committed by the Imperial Army. Arguing that this policy of continuous denial has triggered the rise of civil movements in Japan, this book will be useful to students and scholars of Japanese History and Japanese Studies in general"-- A continuous desire for reconciliation and peace / by Yasuko Claremont -- From enemy to friend / by Donald Keene -- Tracing "victimizer consciousness" : the emergence and development of war guilt and responsibility in postwar Japan / by Takashi Yoshida -- The girl, the flower, and the constitution in 1945 (and 2015) / by Tomoko Aoyama -- "Reconciliation" in postwar history : the need for resolution resulting from Japan's colonial period / by Aiko Utsumi -- Peace in our region : prisoners of war and Australia's relationship with Japan, 1945-1960 / by Christina Twomey -- Listening for the sound of history : Lung Ying-tai's Big River, Big Sea and its vision for reconciliation in Taiwan and China / by Conrad Bauer -- The valorization of the atomic bomb : blast power over the after-effects of radiation / by Yuko Shibata -- Experience and hope : the nuclear issue and Asia through the life of the novelist Hayashi Kyoko, by Teru Shimamura -- Civil resistance in Japan in response to political domination / by Yasuko Claremont -- Oda Makoto and grassroots citizenship movements' Beheiren / by Roman Rosenbaum -- Civil society, remembering and un-remembering : two faces of grassroots action in Japan / by Tessa Morris-Suzuki -- War memories represented in theatre : the one day of the year, the floating world, the spirits play and black diggers / by Keiji Sawada -- Unsettling nostalgia through irony : cinematic war memory and gender / by Katsuhiko Suganuma, Rio Otomo, and Barbara Hartley -- Inoue Hisashi and the Tokyo Trials Trilogy / by Masahito Takayashiki
