Our purpose is not to delve into that textbook but to examine both the reactions it sparked in South Korea, where it was deemed to be the tip of the iceberg of a wider problem affecting all Japanese history textbooks, and the response that supporters of the revisionist textbook gave to South Korean criticisms.

Cet article se penche sur la crise de 2001 au sujet des manuels d’histoire suite à l’homologation du manuel révisionniste de la Société pour la rédaction de nouveaux manuels d’histoire (« Tsukuru‑kai »). Notre propos n’est pas de revenir sur le contenu de ce manuel, mais d’examiner les réactions qu’il suscita en Corée du Sud, où il était considéré comme la pointe de l’iceberg d’un problème touchant tous les manuels d’histoire japonais, ainsi que la riposte que ces critiques coréennes provoquèrent dans les milieux proches du manuel révisionniste. Au‑delà des accusations réciproques de « déformer » l’histoire, l’analyse comparative des sujets de controverse dans les principaux manuels des deux pays révèle que les divergences sont bien moindres que les frictions diplomatiques engendrées par cette crise ne le suggéraient. La comparaison avec les éditions suivantes des manuels montre en outre que de part et d’autre, certaines leçons ont été tirées afin d’éviter qu’une crise de l’ampleur de 2001 ne se reproduise. |
