Book: Japanese Apologies For World War Ii How far Japan should apologise for World War II continues to be a major issue. Japan has issued a number of apologies, sometimes not as fulsomely as critics would like, and has confronted contentious issues such as that of 'comfort women'. This book explores Japanese apologies, focusing in particular on the period from 1985 to the present, examining the nature of the apologies, and relating apologies to morality, politics and political communication. The author concludes that general feeling continues to prevail that Japan has not apologised, despite the numerous instances of apologies.
