Comfort Women: Sexual Slavery in the Japanese Military during World War II

---

Comfort Women: Sexual Slavery in the Japanese Military during World War II examines the system of enforced sexual slavery organized by the Japanese military before and during World War II. The study reveals that thousands of women, primarily from Korea, China, and other occupied territories, were coerced, deceived, or forcibly recruited into “comfort stations” to serve Japanese soldiers. It highlights the systematic nature of this practice, the severe physical and psychological abuse endured by the victims, and the long-term trauma they experienced. The work also discusses the post-war struggle of survivors for recognition, justice, and reparations, as well as the ongoing international debate over historical responsibility and memory. Overall, it underscores the issue as a grave violation of human rights and a critical example of wartime gender-based violence.
