Abstract
China and Japan are haunted by the Second Sino-Japanese War that ended more than 70 years ago. The rise of nationalism in China fuelled by the massive patriotic education campaigns seems to suggest that the two sides hardly have any opportunity to reconcile. However, this article argues that there are two lost chances for emotional reconciliation in the past seven decades. The “we-ness” consciousness and representation of humanity can open the door to reconciliation.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
