About This Item
New York, NY: Columbia University Press, 2002. Soft cover. Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; slight wear to inside corners; otherwise absolute minimal wear; This is the definitive account of the practice of sexual slavery that the Japanese military perpetrated during World War II, written by the researcher principally responsible for exposing the Japanese government's culpability for these atrocities. Yoshimi Yoshiaki provides a wealth of documentation and testimony to prove the existence of some 2,000 centers where as many as 200,000 Korean, Filipina, Taiwanese, Indonesian, Burmese, Dutch, Australian, and some Japanese women were restrained for months and forced to engage in sexual activity with Japanese military personnel. Many of the women were teenagers, some as young as 14. To date (2002), the Japanese government has neither admitted responsibility for creating the comfort station system nor given compensation directly to former comfort women.
