Taking the Fight for Japan’s History Online: The Ramseyer Controversy and Social Media

As a historian of premodern Japan active on Twitter, I seldom find myself embroiled in controversies in real time. I occasionally get pushback when I discuss the legacy of female emperors or nation

'위안부'는 중국, 한반도, 대만, 필리핀, 동티모르, 인도네시아, 네덜란드, 말레이시아, 파푸아 뉴기니 및 일본 등 전 아시아 태평양 지역에서 동원되었습니다. 이 시스템은 미국인, 영국인, 호주인, 유럽인 등 강간피해자를 양산했고 성에 기반한 폭력을 정당화하는 일본의 군대문화를 강화했습니다.

about rape as a weapon of war. Rape is a crime against the community and social fabric. Without justice and truth, there cannot be reconciliation. The issue of “comfort women” lingers today b/c none of these have been fulfilled by Japan.
