黄文雄の「歴史とは何か」（自由社）
＜日・中・台・韓＞の歴史の差異を巨視的にとらえる
その７―第六章 中華文明から仕掛けられた歴史戦に日本が負けない方法は
「日本はもともと世界に誇れる素晴らしい歴史を持っている国だ。人を殺さず、これほど高度な文化を築いた日本は、世界の師表であり、したがって日本が中国や韓国から仕掛けられた歴史戦に負けて沈んでしまうのは世界の損失なのだ。… このように人類史のモデルを築いてきた日本が、今、中国や韓国からゆえなく歴史戦を挑まれている。これはひとえに日本だけの問題ではなく、全世界にとっての問題なのだ」と黄文雄氏は言います。
そもそも「過去」は変えられないものなのですが、これを現時点で取り上げて非難中傷すること自体が、全く不当なことです。つまり歴史戦自体が不当なものですが、史実歪曲に基づいて行うとなると、犯罪的であるといって過言ではありません。こんな不当な戦いに負けない方法を黄文雄氏がこの最終章で述べています。ぜひご覧いただきたいと思います。

KO BUN’YU’S DEFINING HISTORY
A macroscopic analysis of the differences among the histories of
East Asian nations: Japan, China, Taiwan, and Korea
No.7- Chapter 6: How Japan Can Win the History Wars Instigated by China
What is a “history war”? A history war refers to one nation dwelling on another nation’s past in order to denounce and demean it. This is followed by demands for “repentance and apology”, and even reparations.
It is important to remember that the outcome of a history war cannot alter the past. What can be influenced, however, is the future. Even if some facts of the past are worthy of censure, continually opening old wounds in the present day is a different matter. Denouncing historical incidents of the distant past serves no purpose unless one’s goal is to resolve a present-day problem. Without a currently relevant issue, dragging up old history is denunciation merely for the sake of denunciation, which does no good for countries either doing the denouncing or the countries being denounced.
Since accusations instigated by China are mostly NOT factually based but based on fabrications, there are may ways to counter their attacks. In this regard, Mr. Ko Bunyu proposes several approaches. First, one needs to develop a broad historical perspective and second, this might seem strange to foreigners, to win the history wars at home. Third, utilize the UN and other international organizations, and finally, resolve territorial disputes at the UN.
However, the history war itself should be terminated, because it is not at all constructive to simply dredge up matters of history for the purpose of aspersion and moralizing. It’s one thing to praise something in the past that deserves praise. However, it is quite a different matter to expressly single out for denunciation certain incidents from another country’s past, even if the incidents really deserve condemnation.
