In recent times, international society has countered a myriad of
'outlaw' threats at sea, including piracy, terrorism, the
proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) and the threat
posed by 'rogue states'. Whilst the US has promoted 'coalitions of
the willing' and sought to transform international maritime law in
response to these 'outlaws', Japanese governments have developed an
innovative maritime security strategy centering on the Japan Coast
Guard (JCG). Concerned by Japan's international image as a former
imperialist power, Tokyo has relied upon the identity of the JCG as
a law enforcement and rescue organization to garner support for its
maritime security strategy. Japan's non-military efforts have
developed the capacities of states and built institutions in the
Southeast Asian region and beyond. The JCG's response to maritime
'outlaws' belies characterizations of Japan as a passive state that
does not contribute to international order.
