The explosion razed the city to the ground and caused the deaths of around 140,000, as a result of direct and indirect effects. On 6 August 1945, an American B-29 bomber dropped an atomic bomb on the city Hiroshima. Specifically, two themata are proposed: one revolving around the temporal problematisation of the past and the future in the memory politics of the A-Bomb, and the other revolving around the spatial dichotomy between the old and the new underlying Hiroshima’s urban renewal. The article concludes by interpreting these dichotomies through the notion of themata, as elementary dichotomies that underlie a social debate around a specific topic. This is particularly clear where he perceives border zones and points of intersection. The dichotomies of war/peace, death/life, past/future, and old /new emerge as part of the participant’s encounter with different situations during his visit. Results show that despite the monolithic idea of peace that the memorial officially represents, it is experienced and interpreted in terms of a constant tension which exposes conflicts in post-war Japan memory politics. This article presents a detailed case study of a visit to the memorial by using an innovative methodology based on the use of subjective cameras (subcams).

Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park is widely known as a universal symbol of peace, but there have not been studies of how people actually experience and interpret it.
