With the US-Japan alliance in jeopardy, former diplomat Harrison
Holland argues that both sides must take bold steps to avert a
catastrophe that could destabilize economic, political and security
conditions in Asia. Taking advantage of his insider's perceptions,
the author illuminates those aspects of life in Japan that
influence behaviour, shape policy and affect public opinion in an
inwardly directed society. Holland evaluates the obstacles to
better economic relations; the security dilemmas facing Japan; and
the rigid Japanese political structure, which has been slow to
adapt to the surge of modern technology, the demands of rapid
international change, and the internal and external calls for a
more responsible Japanese role in world affairs. Can the alliance
survive the present turmoil? Despite the daunting obstacles, the
author concludes that solutions must and will be found.
