日本现任首相安倍晋三认为日本与德国在战后面临不同的环境,导致日本有着自己的对待二战历史的政策,但是,从战争一结束,德国彻底清算了希特勒的罪恶,而日本天皇裕仁却被美国用来稳定战后日本的政治秩序。在日本,很多人对战争期间的种种加害罪行没有深刻反省,却利用美国投下的原子弹让自己成了受害者。德国把灭绝犹太人的事实根植在国民的认知中,而日本从来就没有形成这样的记忆共识,日本的历史认知严重碎片化。当前,自民党的政治领袖、文化领域的官僚和国家媒体的一部分组成了一个意见垄断集团,他们出于政治目的把历史做为工具加以利用。 Japan’s current Prime Minister Shinzo Abe believes that Japan and Germany are facing different conditions after the war and that Japan has its own policy to deal with the history of World War II. However, since the war was over, Germany completely liquidated Hitler’s sin while Japan’s Emperor Hirohito was replaced by the United States Used to stabilize Japan’s political order after the war. In Japan, many people did not reflect deeply on the various crimes committed during the war, but used the atomic bomb dropped by the United States to make themselves victims. Germany rooted in the national perception of the fact of extermination of Jews, and Japan never formed such a memory consensus that Japan’s historical cognition was severely fragmented. At present, the political leaders of the LDP, bureaucrats in the cultural field, and part of the state media form a monopoly of opinion that they make use of for their political purposes as a tool.
