具體描述
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.

用戶評價
非常大膽的作品，涉及瞭跨學科跨地區的研究，有力的分析瞭九十年代興起的糾正運動的發展,批判瞭冷戰國際秩序延續至今的影響。同時也拷問瞭美國自己塑造的自由主義敘事。
评分redress簡直是一個自相矛盾的問題，historical trauma永遠不可能徹底被redress，這本名義上在討論redress的書實際上在替我們發問：在redress本身不可能的情況下，我們能做的還有什麼？為瞭什麼？為瞭誰？
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joins Lisa Lowe pretty well in critiquing the framing of "universal values" -- liberty, justice....
