Critiquing Japan’s Holocaust: A Missed Opportunity in Historical Scholarship


When compared to other scholarly works on similar topics, *Japan’s Holocaust* by Bryan Mark Rigg, while detailed, fails to match the academic rigor and depth found in works like John Dower’s *War Without Mercy* or Ian Buruma’s *The Wages of Guilt*. While Rigg’s narrative may be accessible to non-academic readers, this accessibility comes at the cost of a well-rounded and thoughtful analysis. Dower and Buruma successfully place Japan’s actions within a broader context of racial ideologies and post-war memory politics, providing a nuanced perspective that is sorely lacking in Rigg’s work. Rigg’s approach often feels overly simplistic and one-dimensional, focusing heavily on dramatization rather than offering a balanced historical account. This lack of depth and perspective does a disservice to readers seeking to fully understand the complexities of the period, making *Japan’s Holocaust* seem more like a missed opportunity than a substantive contribution to the field of historical scholarship.
