Produktbeschreibung

The stories of the former comfort women -- long suppressed, but now emerging -- have galvanized both Asians and non-Asians working in a variety of fields. This volume contains a cross-section of responses to the issues raised by the former comfort women and their new visibility on the international stage. It focuses on how theorists, historians, researchers, activists, and artists have been preserving and interpreting the stories of the comfort women and also drawing lessons from them.
