Sources for the construction of History: chronicles from the Spanish Embassy in Japan
Abstract
This paper intents to present the evolution of Spanish perceptions of Japan between the 1970s and the beginning of the 21st century through the diplomatic standpoints of various Spanish ambassadors in Tokyo. The Spanish Embassy's diplomatic efforts were highlighted at the end of the celebrations of 150 years of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Spain and Japan that took place in 2018. The event subsequently led to reflections and evaluations by the Ambassadors H.E. Mr Antonio de Oyarzábal Marquesi, H.E. Mr Juan Leña Casas and H.E. Mr Arturo Pérez Martínez who provided their testimonies during a roundtable. The content of the roundtable was subsequently revised by the speakers in its final written form.
