Le mouvement pacifiste japonais depuis les années 1990
Jennifer Chan
Going beyond the two traditional pillars of postwar pacifism in Japan – anti-nuclearism and anti-security treaty protest – this article
examines the peace movements in Japan between 1990 and 2005 from three
different angles: antibase activism in Okinawa; the elimination of violence
against women in war; and constitutional preservation. It looks at the emergence of multiple overlapping pacifist discourses including gender, race,
coloniality, and ecology. While the current antiwar movements draw upon
the legacy of its antecedents in the 1960s and 1970s, they are much less
dependent on the organization and socialist orientation of labor unions and
more ready to draw upon global networks and human rights discourses.
