「慰安婦性奴隷説」論破本 日韓米で発刊
戦前、日本軍が朝鮮人女性を強制的に性奴隷にしていたという慰安婦性奴隷説を学術的、実証的に論破したハーバード大学ロースクールのマークラムザイヤー教授の著書が、日韓米の３言語で出版されました。２月１９日東京・内幸町のプレスセンターで国際歴史論戦研究所が記者会見で発表しました。
性奴隷説は朝日新聞が故吉田清治の言説に基づいて拡散しましたが、吉田説の嘘が明らかになり朝日も官憲記事をすべて取り消しました。日本ではその誤りが広く認識されていますが、韓国や米国など海外では依然として固く信じられています。そのためラムザイヤー氏の論文は、韓国や米国で強い批判がなされました。
ラムザイヤー氏はオンラインで記者会見に出席。米国ではいまだに「学問の自由、表現の自由が不寛容で偏狭性が高く、事実を認めようとしない」現実があることを伝えました。英語版の共著者ジェイソン・モーガン麗澤大学准教授は「米国はいつまで出版物の検閲制度を続けるのか」と批判しました。

“Mr. Ramseyer’s vicry” says Mr. Fujiwara Nobukatsu
Books completely refuting the theory of the comfort women being sex slaves published in Japan, South Korea and the United States
Professor Mark Ramseyer of Harvard Law School has completely refuted, academically and empirically, the theory that before the war, the Japanese military forcibly took Korean women as comfort women and made them sex slaves. A press conference to report that Professor Ramseyer’s books were published in Japan, South Korea and the United States was held on February 19 at Nippon Press Center at Uchisaiwai-cho, Tokyo.
The theory that the comfort women were sex slaves was disseminated by The Asahi Newspaper based on Yoshida Seiji’s story. However, Yoshida’s story turned out to be false and The Asahi cancelled all related articles. Although the fault of the sex slave theory is widely recognized in Japan, the fallacy is firmly believed to be true in South Korea and the United States. Due to these circumstances, Mr. Ramseyer’s paper was exposed to harsh criticism.
Mr. Ramseyer joined the press conference online. The fault of the forced abduction came to be widely known in Japan, but in the United States, he said, “Academic freedom and freedom of expression still suffer intolerance and people are highly narrow-minded.” Mr. Jason Morgan, associate professor at Reitaku University and the co-author of the English version book, said, “Alas, until when will the United States keep censoring publications?”

Mr. Fujioka Nobukatsu, former Professor at The University of Tokyo, who compiled and translated Professor Ramseyer’s papers into the Japanese version of the book, “Complete Refutation by Prof. Ramseyer,” said, “Despite a barrage of criticism over the past three years, not a single criticism appeared against the logical foundation of Professor Ramseyer’s papers,” and “We would like to proudly declare Professor Ramseyer’s victory.” On the other hand, he mentioned that the efforts made by the Japanese Foreign Ministry and the Japanese Government were not enough, as symbolically shown by the “Kono statement” (1993) that acknowledged the alleged forced abduction of comfort women .

The translator of the Korean version of the book, Mr. Lee Wooyoun of the Naksungdae Institute of Economic Research deplored the present circumstances in South Korea, saying “Korean people are deceived into believing the theory of forced abduction of comfort women and subjected to criminal charges if they should deny the theory.” He said that it would probably take several more decades to have the truth about the comfort women issue established as the national consensus.
