日本政府与“历史教科书问题”

The Japanese Goverment and “History Textbook Problem”

２００１年４月，日本文部省审定通过了严重歪曲历史、美化侵略的历史教科书，其性质与后果十分严重。作者在分析战后日本三次修改历史教科书过程和史实的基础上，认为历史教科书审定属国家政府行为。教科书修订原因种种，日本政府默认、纵容和支持教科书“改恶”是其重要原因之一。比较战后日本政府与德国政府对历史教科书的态度，确证日本政府对此应负的责任。

In April, 2001, the Japanese Ministry of Education examined, revised and passed the history textbook which seriously distorted the history and extolled the invasion, which led to very serious consequences. Analysing the process in which Japan revised the history textbook three times ofter the war, this paper indicated that the revision of history textbook was the government a responsibility. There were many factors contributing to the revision of history textbook, one of which was Japanese government' a acquiescence. connivance and support. Comparing the different attitudes of the Japanese and German governments towards the problem of history textbook, the author argues that the Japanese government should assume full responsibility for the problem of history textbook.
