This book provides a fresh approach to understanding the origins
and possible future direction of the Northeast Asia "history wars."
Leading scholars in history, literary studies, and education
present the complex issue in a historical context by assessing its
political and cultural dimensions, particularly with regards to
relations between Japan and Korea. Their essays also touch on the
significance of civil society efforts to advance peaceful
reconciliation and the social and political forces that have worked
to frustrate such efforts since 1945. At its core, this volume
explores the political significance in the gap between Korean and
Japanese civil society versus governmental efforts to resolve
issues lingering from the Pacific War in Asia; the significance of
cultural as well as political efforts to understanding historical
and contemporary relations among Northeast Asian neighboring
states; and specific factors-such as textbook reform, revised
school curricula, and civil society education efforts- that are
working to ameliorate the heretofore deadlocked "history wars."
