This open access book examines why Japan discontinued its
quarter-century history of troop contribution to UN Peacekeeping
Operations (1992-2017). Japan had deployed its troops as UN
peacekeepers since 1992, albeit under a constitutional limit on
weapons use. Japan's peacekeepers began to focus on engineering
work as its strength, while also trying to relax the constraints on
weapons use, although to a minimal extent. In 2017, however, Japan
suddenly withdrew its engineering corps from South Sudan, and has
contributed no troops since then. Why? The book argues that Japan
could not match the increasing "robustness" of recent peacekeeping
operations and has begun to seek a new direction, such as
capacity-building support.
