Annotated Bibliography: Final Political and social issues between Korea and Japan are fraught with tension in the present day because of the Japanese occupation of Korea during World War II. During the occupation, the Japanese tried to eliminate Korean culture and enforced a policy to obliterate the Korean nation. The occupation was a relatively recent historical event that has been taught in classes and imparted to Korean generations, thus marking the memory of the present generation, which makes it difficult for them not to be so biased with Japanese actions in the present day. I think we should look at how Korean government defines and teaches about the relationship between the two countries through usage of cultural identity and collective memory of Japanese occupation to unify people and up-build Korean economic. In hope of both countries do not make matters worse for Korean–Japanese political and social issues.
Caprio, Mark. Neo-Nationalist Interpretations of Japan’s Annexation of Korea: The Colonization
Debate in Japan and South Korea. The Asia-Pacific Journal.1 Nov. 2010. Web. The author’s main claim is about Murata Haruki, who insists that the Japanese occupation of Korea is supposed to be stated as Japan’s annexation. He says that many conservative Japanese support this and there are a lot of reasons why it should be called an annexation rather than colonization. There are many reasons to support the idea, such as the education provided by the Japanese to the Koreans, and the Japanese occupiers’ granting of equal privileges to the Koreans. Unfortunately, the author argues that Murata’s claim is having a negative effect on diplomatic issues, since the voices of China and Korea strengthen as their economic power grows. The idea of Murata has significant social effects on both sides of countries because in Japan Murata’s ideology will create certain party who believes in it. This party will have competing claims against Koreans that will
