Diễn ngôn về chiến tranh trong mối quan hệ với thiết chế quyền lực qua tiểu thuyết Không chiến Zero rực lửa của Hyakuta Naoki. (Vietnamese)

Discourse is an important and effective tool, and has a close relationship with the institution of power in war. Hyakuta Naoki's The Eternal Zero (Eien no Zero 永遠の0) is about Japanese soldiers during World War II; it exposes this relationship and hidden things behind the militaristic government's discourses. Through the novel, Hyakuta Naoki brings a different, little-known perspective on the Japanese soldiers during the war. They are no longer presented as fanatical and extremist terrorists, they are just ordinary people with deep feelings and emotions. By explaining the causes and motives leading to the consent or resistance behaviors of Japanese soldiers with the institution of power, the discourse reveals the war crimes committed by the militaristic government, and shows us the message of peace, anti-war and human values that The Eternal Zero and the writer Hyakuta Naoki wants to convey.
