Also received the Japanese government medal
According to the Sankei Shimbun of Japan on the 1st, the article in question will be published in the International Review of Law and Economics in March. The title of the article is’Contracting for sex in the Pacific War’.
Professor Ramsey said that both Korean comfort women and Japanese comfort women are certified prostitutes and are not’sex slaves’ who have been kidnapped by Japan and forced to prostitute, and if there is a problem, she told a recruiter in Joseon who tricked women into working in a brothel for decades. The paper claims that there was a problem.
In addition, in the case of comfort women, reflecting the high risk of working in a far-off battlefield, the contract period was generally shorter (two years) and in some cases shorter, and the comfort women received high pay, Professor Ramsey argues. With the understanding of Professor Ji-eo, the thesis summary was published on the Internet, and the thesis abstract can be viewed on the thesis information site’Science Direct’.

Professor Ramsey spent his youth years in Japan, and in 2018, it is known that he was awarded the third of the six Rising Ilchi, the Japanese government’s medal of the Rook Ilchi.
In this regard, Professor Yuji Hosaka of Sejong University told YTN Radio’Hwang Bo-seon’s Departure New Morning’ on the 2nd. The Sankei Shimbun knew in advance that it would be published in the’International Review of Law and Economics’, and the summary was obtained and published.”
Professor Hosaka said, “Professor Ramsey argued that the Japanese government or the Japanese military was not responsible for the problem related to comfort women, and there were problems with recruiters,” said Professor Hosaka. “Even in Japan and Joseon, prostitutes were brought to the battlefield. “They have maintained their interests.”
Professor Hosaka said, “Professor Ramzier said that this situation is called’game theory’, which is an economic term that states that actions are taken when mutual interests coincide. In Korea, Professor Young-Hoon Lee, who wrote anti-Japanese tribalism, He added that the theory said that there was a reason to be a comfort woman because of mutual interests, but it is almost the same.”
Professor Hosaka said, “However, Professor Ramsay is only speculating without any convincing evidence that’we only hired women who worked as prostitutes in Korea’. At the time, there were a lot of women in Japan who wanted to engage in prostitutes, and there was a similar situation in Chosun. There is no data on it,” he said, pointing out the content of Professor Ramsey’s thesis.
Professor Hosaka said, “Because Prof. Ramzier spent his youth in Japan, he was influenced by Japanese culture a lot. He is known as a pro-Japanese, and why he wrote this paper should be immediately interviewed.”
