要旨:
This lecture will provide an overview of Japanese military documents discovered in China in the 1950s, translated and published in Chinese and English over the past decade. It will highlight the documents' content, significance, and evidence of wartime atrocities and lesser-known aspects of human suffering.
Furthermore, the lecture will consider the ethical dilemmas and challenges surrounding the translation process, as well as the impact of these translations on Sino-Japanese relations and the broader quest for peace and reconciliation. Key questions that will be addressed include: Is the existence of these documents by its very nature a hindrance to peace? How should the documents be handled? What can happen if they are mishandled? The discussion will end on a note of optimism regarding the potential role of the documents, albeit with a caveat that there remain difficulties ahead, and successful reconciliation, as it pertains to these documents, is far from certain.

備考概要:
This presentation asks why, in the wake of the Cold War, Japan suddenly reversed years of steadfast opposition to security cooperation with its neighbors. Long isolated and opposed to multilateral agreements, Japan proposed East Asia's first multilateral security forum in 1991, thrusting itself into an unexpected leadership role in regional security. Based on his recent book Overcoming Isolationism, Midford explores what led to this surprising about-face and offers a corrective to the common misconception that Japan's security strategy is just reactive to US pressure and unresponsive to its neighbors. He draws on newly released official documents and extensive interviews to reveal a quarter century of Japanese leadership in promoting regional security cooperation. He demonstrates that Japan has a much more nuanced relationship with its neighbors and has played a more significant leadership role in shaping East Asian security than has previously been recognized.
