Interesting...I have wondered how WWII history is taught and viewed now in Japan.
(Hakkadaikon-san told me it was taught in schools but he didn't remember much from school & told me he got to know more after reading separately).
Btw, during that time, many people in my city evacuated to rural areas fearing Japanese air bombing 😅
発火さんは日本の都道府県をかなり理解していなかったので、日本の教育の結果を知るサンプルとして彼のみを基準とするのは危険です🥹
次に、自分の知る限り日本の教育では、インドや東南アジアでの日本の帝国主義的振る舞いはそれほど注目されない印象です。我々は我々が世界で最も被害者となれる原爆被害を学ぶことにより多くの時間を使い、日本軍の帝国主義の犠牲者や被害について学ぶのに同じだけの時間を使いません。私は、自分の意見として、これは問題があると思っています
大学生になって図書館で多くの具体例を知りました。インドについてのオーラルヒストリーとかは読んでないので、知りません。
日本の歴史教育だとその他の国の植民地政策と同程度には触れられてたような
Hakkadaikon-san also told me same thing - not to judge what is taught based on his memory of school alone 😅 But that some of the harm done by Japanese army in Korea is not taught extensively.
It's very easy to get carried away in nationalistic pride and not objectively see things. It's tough to talk about
It's happening in India too - selective history studies in textbook. Which is why it's always better to get multiple perspectives from outside the country also.
Since Ichinaka-san seems to be a scholar, I am not surprised that you read more in the library 👍👍
