Abstrakt
Pacifist sentiments that arose among Japanese after the end of World War II were associated with the feeling of being victims of the nuclear tragedy, fatigue with long-term military activities and the demilitarisation of Japan carried out by the occupation authorities. The purpose of this article is to show the problem of the politics of memory in the context of the activities of non-governmental organisations whose aim is to create memorial sites reminiscent of historical events. An example of this type of organisation, discussed in this article, is the Japan Teachers Union, which, at the beginning of its existence, pursued goals set by the United States, which exercised real power in the Archipelago during the occupation. When the Cold War broke out, this organisation fell out of favour with the authorities, and its activities began to be associated with anti-Japan opposition. The main goal of the Union was to reform school textbooks, which, although to a large extent gave an objective history of Japanese activities on the Asian continent, were not without significance for Japanese-American relations.
