This book takes an in-depth look at Japan's long-festering
territorial and maritime disputes with its three neighbors - China,
South Korea and the Russian Federation. Japan has established
friendly relations with all three former adversaries since the end
of World War II, but these sovereignty issues remain. All three
disagreements have recently flared into potentially violent
incidents that could erupt again at any time. The book explores
each situation and proposes concrete compromise solutions to each
of the outstanding disputes. The key recommendation the book sets
forth is that the disputes in question be resolved through the
conclusion of separate negotiated agreements between Japan and each
of its neighbors, whereby separate Zones of Cooperation and
Environmental Protection are established in northeast Asia. These
three agreements would be international treaties with the purpose
of establishing ongoing permanent cooperation in the three disputed
areas. The book concludes with a discussion of the need for broader
multilateral institutions of cooperation. International relations
specialists, government officials, international lawyers and
scholars of Asian politics will find great value in the
knowledgeable discussions of these complex issues.
