Title: Troubled apologies among Japan, Korea, and the United States
Description: "Examining the interplay between political apology and apologetic history Alexis Dudden focuses on the problematic relationship among Japanese imperialists, South Korean state builders, and Americans wielding power in Asia. She considers this history through diplomatic, cultural, and social issues of the postwar era and argues that the process of apology has created a dilemma from which none of these countries can escape without undoing decades of mythmaking."--Jacket.
