ABSTRACT
In the early 2010s, throughout Japan, far-right groups held numerous racist demonstrations against Asian peoples, especially people of Korean descent. Also during this period, non-fiction books and magazine articles that denigrated South Korea coalesced into a literary genre known as ken-kan or hate-Korea, and two hate- Korea books reached the bestseller lists in 2014. The authors of hate-Korea books also wrote nihon raisan (praise-Japan) books that excessively glorified Japan and its culture. Published by mainstream publishers and shelved along with other books in ordinary bookstores, hate-Korea books, alternately called heito bon (hate books), are a form of hate speech that requires a specific examination. Using Goldberg’s (1993) grammar of racialized discourse, this paper analyzes the two hate-Korea bestsellers and a praise-Japan book written by the author of one of the bestsellers to examine their grammar and the intersection of Japanese racism and nationalism embedded there.
