Yoshikune Igarashi. Homecomings
At the end of World War II in the Asia-Pacific theater, close to seven million Japanese, slightly over half of them servicemen, were caught overseas. Most were repatriated within the first three years of peace, but somewhere close to eight hundred thousand were captured by the Red Army and detained in Soviet labor camps until the 1950s (241 n. 1). A handful more, cut off from command communication, remained at large in the jungles of multiple Pac…

The Victim as Hero
Yasui Kaoru
As the leader of Japan's ban-the-bomb movement in the 1950s and 1960s, scholar-activist Yasui Kaoru achieved international prominence for his promotion of grassroots anti-nuclear pacifism. Yet from his position as Professor of International Law at Tokyo Imperial University in the 1930s and 1940s, Yasui contributed to the formation of official cultural policy in occupied China and called on intellectuals to support Japan's wartime government.
