In Anti-Japan Leo T. S. Ching traces the complex dynamics that shape persisting negative attitudes toward Japan throughout East Asia. Drawing on a mix of literature, film, testimonies, and popular culture, Ching shows how anti-Japanism stems from the failed efforts at decolonization and reconciliation, the Cold War and the ongoing U.S. military presence, and shifting geopolitical and economic conditions in the region. At the same time, pro-Japan sentiments in Taiwan reveal a Taiwanese desire to recoup that which was lost after the Japanese empire fell. Anti-Japanism, Ching contends, is less about Japan itself than it is about the real and imagined relationships between it and China, Korea, and Taiwan. Advocating for forms of healing that do not depend on state-based diplomacy, Ching suggests that reconciliation requires that Japan acknowledge and take responsibility for its imperial history. 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xInfluence 606 $aNationalism$zJapan$xHistory 606 $aImperialism$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aEast Asia$xRelations$zJapan 607 $aJapan$xRelations$zEast Asia 607 $aEast Asia$xRelations$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xRelations$zEast Asia 607 $aJapan$xForeign public opinion, East Asian 607 $aUnited States$xForeign public opinion, East Asian 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xInfluence. 615 0$aNationalism$xHistory. 615 0$aImperialism$xHistory 676 $a303.48/25052 700 $aChing$b Leo T.
