Oren re-examines Japan's threat perception during the first two
decades of the Cold War, using a wide range of source materials,
including many unavailable in English, or only recently
declassified. There is a widely shared misconception that during
the Cold War the Japanese were largely shielded from threats due to
the American military protection, the regional balance of power,
Japan's geographical insularity, and domestic aversion to
militarism. Oren dispels this, showing how security threats
pervaded Japanese strategic thinking in this period. By dispelling
this misconception, Oren enables us to more accurately gauge the
degree to which Japan's threat perception has evolved during and
after the end of the Cold War and to enhance our understanding of
Tokyo's strategic calculus in the current situation of rivalry
between China and the United States. This book will be of great
value to both scholars of Japanese history and contemporary
international relations.
