Book Synopsis Abandoned Japanese in Postwar Manchuria by : Yeeshan Chan
Book excerpt: This book relates the experiences of the zanryu-hojin - the Japanese civilians, mostly women and children, who were abandoned in Manchuria after the end of the Second World War when Japan’s puppet state in Manchuria ended. It examines their eventual repatriation, alongside issues of war memory and war guilt, and the worldviews of the zanryu-hojin, alongsideJapanese society and its anti-war social movements.
