View through CrossRef
[Prime Minister Koizumi Junichiro's visit to Yasukuni Shrine on August 15, the most controversial date possible, underscored Yasukuni's central place in discussions of Japanese war memory and historical reconciliation in Northeast Asia.

There are, however, other pressing issues.
