Rethinking Historical Injustice and Reconciliation in Northeast Asia

The Northeast Asian region has witnessed phenomenal economic growth and the spread of democratization in recent decades, yet wounds from past wrongs committed in times of colonialism, war, and dictatorship still remain. Of all the countries in the northeast region coping with historical injustice, the Republic of Korea has the rare distinction of confronting internal and external historical injustices simultaneously, both as a victim and as a perpetrator. Koreas experience highlights the major forces shaping the reckoning and reconciliation process, such as democratization, globalization, regional integration, and nationalism, in addition to providing valuable insight into the themes of historical injustice and reconciliation within the region.

The book aims to move beyond a nation-state oriented analysis of Korea as the victim/aggressor, seeking instead to understand reconciliation as a mutual, interactive concept. Although there is no universal formula for reconciliation, the contributors examine the reaction of society from the perspective of citizens groups, NGOs, and victim-activist groups toward such issues as enforced labor, comfort women, and internal injustices committed during the wars to foster a better understanding of the past and thus aid in future reconciliation between other Northeast Asian countries.

Rethinking Historical Injustice and Reconciliation in Northeast Asia represents the first book written in English to address these significant issues and as such will be of huge interest to those studying East Asian politics, history, and society.

Gi-Wook Shin is Director of the Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center and Associate Professor of Sociology at Stanford University, USA.

Soon-Won Park is Adjunct Professor in the Department of History at Howard University, Washington, DC.

Daqing Yang is Associate Professor of History and International Affairs at George Washington University, USA.
