No other country has devised a grand strategy for managing China's
rising economic and military power as deliberately or successfully
as Japan. Seeking to counter Chinese ambitions toward regional
hegemony, Japan has taken an increasingly assertive role in East
Asia and the world. During the tenure of Prime Minister Abe Shinzo,
the country pursued closer security cooperation with the United
States and other democracies, established a more centralized
national defense system, and advanced rules and norms to preserve
the open regional order in the Indo-Pacific that is crucial to its
prosperity and survival-all while managing an important economic
relationship with China. In Line of Advantage, Michael J. Green
provides a groundbreaking and comprehensive account of Japan's
strategic thinking under Abe. He explains the foundational logic
and the worldview behind this approach, from key precedents in
Japanese history to the specific economic, defense, and diplomatic
priorities shaping contemporary policy toward China, the United
States, the two Koreas, and the Indo-Pacific region. Drawing on two
decades of access to Abe and other Japanese political, military,
and business leaders, Green provides an insider's perspective on
subjects such as how Japan pursued competition with China without
losing the benefits of economic cooperation. Assessing the
strengths and weaknesses of Japan's new active role, Line of
Advantage sheds new light on a period with profound implications
for the future of U.S. competition with China and international
affairs in Asia more broadly.
