520 3 Germany, which brutalized its neighbors in Europe for
centuries, has mostly escaped the ghosts of the past,
while Japan remains haunted in Asia. The most common
explanation for this difference is that Germany knows
better how to apologize; Japan is viewed as "impenitent."
Walter F. Hatch rejects the conventional wisdom and argues
that Germany has achieved reconciliation with neighbors by
showing that it can be a trustworthy partner in regional
institutions like the European Union and NATO; Japan has
never been given that opportunity (by its dominant partner,
the U.S.) to demonstrate such an ability to cooperate.
This book rigorously defends the argument that political
cooperation--not discourse or economic exchange--best
explains Germany's relative success and Japan's relative
failure in achieving reconciliation with neighbors
brutalized by each regional power in the past. It uses
paired case studies (Germany-France and Japan-South Korea;
Germany-Poland and Japan-China) to gauge the effect of
these competing variables on public opinion over time.
With numerous charts, each of the four empirical chapters
illustrates the powerful causal relationship between
institution building and interstate reconciliation.
