In addition to virtually ignoring war's role in the social history of American racial relations by Japanese textbook writers, within the framework of history instruction, both countries’ textbooks avoid authentic testimony by individual soldiers on what it feels like to kill another human being, whether combatant or non-combatant. While literature and popular culture aptly take up this theme for emotional and aesthetic effect, raw and artless accounts of war's most grotesque realities are seldom if ever juxtaposed with the names and dates textbooks offer students for rote memorization that can lead to success on examinations. A direct proximity of such recollections to the dry narrative of modern war's geopolitical ramifications would deepen an understanding of what war really is, at least where more sensitive students are concerned.}, pages = {1--38}, title = {The 'Missing Souldier': Modern War and Lies of Omission in Japanese and American Junior High and High School Textbooks(Part2)}, volume = {32}, year = {} }
