The Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD)
was established in 1993 with the intention of creating
opportunities for trade and investment on both sides and the
promotion of sustainable development. In 2003, the conference
translated Japanese aid policy to Africa into three key pillars:
human centered development, poverty reduction through economic
growth, and the consolidation of peace, and since 2005 Africa has
on several occasions been the largest recipient of Japanese
overseas aid. Tracing Japanese foreign aid to Africa during and
after the Cold War, this book examines how the TICAD process sits
at the intersection of international relations and domestic
decision making. Indeed, it questions whether the increase in aid
has been driven by domestic changes such as demands from civil
society and donor interest, or pressures emanating from the
international system. Taking Angola and Mozambique as case studies,
the book explores how Japan's development cooperation with Africa
has assisted previously war torn states make the transition from
war to peace, and in doing so demonstrates the centrality of human
security to Japanese foreign policy as a means of ensuring
sustainable development. This book will have great
interdisciplinary appeal to students and scholars of Japanese and
African studies, Japanese politics, international relations theory,
foreign policy, economic development and sustainable development.
