BURUMA Ian <br/><br/>
The wages of guilt:  memories of war in Germany and Japan 

 - London:  Vintage,  1995 
 - 330p. 
<br/><br/> This book examines how Germany and Japan have attempted to come to terms with their conduct during World War II—a war that they aggressively began and humiliatingly lost, and in the course of which they committed monstrous war crimes. It explores these contrasting responses to the war and the two countries’ very different ways of memorializing its atrocities, as well as the ways in which political movements, government policies, literature, and art have been shaped by its shadow.
