The Japanese government has consistently tried to deny their responsibility in establishing and maintaining the “comfort women” system of sexual slavery. This has included pressuring other governments to either not build or to take down “comfort women statues,” taking educational content out of text books and encouraging so-called scholars to write articles and books denouncing and deriding the women. Lately, this effort has been led by J. Mark Ramseyer of Harvard Law School.
Professor Pyong Gap Min, a leading scholar and advocate for the “comfort women,” has edited, Countering History Denialism, which offers a critique of Ramseyer and clearly shows the danger of historical denialism.
Authors include Yoshimi Yoshiaki, Tomomi Yamaguchi and CWJC’s Judith Mirkinson.
