Japan and Korea, just one case in point, share centuries of intertwined history, the nature of which continues to be disputed, particularly with regard to World War II. The authors of History, Memory, and Politics in Postwar Japan explore Japan's historical narratives, and their impact on both domestic politics and diplomatic relations, as they have evolved from 1946 to the present. Presenting the results of more than a decade of collaborative research, their book is a rich contribution to our understanding not only of Japanese politics, but also of how the historical narratives that we embrace have far-reaching consequences UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781626378858 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781626378858 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781626378858/original ER -
