This book offers a comprehensive overview of Japan's national
security institutions and policy today, including a detailed
discussion of Japan's regional security environment and its
alliance with the United States in the context of the Democratic
Party of Japan's rise to power in August 2009. 2010 marks the 50th
anniversary of the revision of the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty,
making Japan one of the United States's longest and most important
military allies. Over 40,000 US troops are based in Japan, as is
the only U.S. aircraft carrier based outside the United States, the
USS George Washington. Japan possesses one of the world's largest
economies and strongest military forces, and as a result, its
national security policies and institutions are highly
significant—not just to America, but to the rest of the global
community as well. This book provides an overview of Japan's
transformation into one of the world's most capable military powers
over the past 150 years. Particular attention is paid to
developments in the past decade, such as the 2009 change in the
controlling political party and Japan's responses to new global
security threats.
