世界の記憶(Memory of the World: MOW)に登録された南京大虐殺の記録

Post-war archives on the Nanjing Massacre were based on the investigations of the massacre. The International Military Tribunal for the Far East, consisting of representatives from the United States and 10 other countries, and the Chinese Nationalist Government’s Military Tribunal conducted trials of Japanese war criminals such as Iwane Matsui and Tani Hisao. Nanjing citizens’ petitions and questionnaires concerning Japanese atrocities, archives on the two tribunals’ investigations, especially those of the Nanjing Military Tribunal with regard to court hearing, cross-examination, defence, as well as rulings have long been stored at the Second Historical Archives of China and the Nanjing Municipal Archives.

南京大虐殺に関する戦後の記録は、松井石根や谷寿夫のような日本軍戦犯を裁いた極東国際軍事裁判と中国国民政府による裁判での虐殺調査に基づいている。

In July 1950, the former Soviet Union handed over to China about 1000 Japanese war criminals who were captured during the Battle of Manchuria. A special military tribunal of People’s Republic of China Supreme Court opened two trials of the criminals, respectively in Shenyang and Taiyuan in June 1956. The confession files of Hiroyuki Nagatomi and Hisao Ota, which are related to the Nanjing Massacre, are now kept at the Central Archives of China.
