In Cold War Ruins Lisa Yoneyama argues that the efforts intensifying since the 1990s to bring justice to the victims of Japanese military and colonial violence have generated what she calls a "transborder redress culture." A product of failed post-World War II transitional justice that left many colonial legacies intact, this culture both contests and reiterates the complex transwar and transpacific entanglements that have sustained the Cold War unredressability and illegibility of certain violences. By linking justice to the effects of American geopolitical hegemony, and by deploying a conjunctive cultural critique—of "comfort women" redress efforts, state-sponsored apologies and amnesties, Asian American involvement in redress cases, the ongoing effects of the U.S. occupation of Japan and Okinawa, Japanese atrocities in China, and battles over WWII memories—Yoneyama helps illuminate how redress culture across Asia and the Pacific has the potential to bring powerful new and challenging perspectives on American exceptionalism, militarized security, justice, sovereignty, forgiveness, and decolonization.
Lisa Yoneyama is Professor of East Asian Studies and Women & Gender Studies at the University of Toronto, the coeditor of Perilous Memories: The Asia-Pacific War(s), also published by Duke University Press, and the author of Hiroshima Traces: Time, Space, and the Dialectics of Memory.

非常大胆的作品,涉及了跨学科跨地区的研究,有力的分析了九十年代兴起的纠正运动的发展,批判了冷战国际秩序延续至今的影响。同时也拷问了美国自己塑造的自由主义叙事。
评分主要處理美國與日本的關係,反思在冷戰格局中的pax americana及其遺緒,其述「正義」極為強調性別與種族,「伸張正義」被政治工具化的擔憂,以及universalized rights與其隱含的帝國主義遮蔽作用。
评分redress简直是一个自相矛盾的问题,historical trauma永远不可能彻底被redress,这本名义上在讨论redress的书实际上在替我们发问:在redress本身不可能的情况下,我们能做的还有什么?为了什么?为了谁?
