The book explains the Putin era's ambivalent approach to Asia and
finds lessons from earlier approaches worthy of further attention.
The overview compares how strategic thinking evolved, while
reflecting on factors that shaped it.
This volume examines four periods since the 1980s and covers views
of China, Japan, the Korean peninsula, Central Asia, South and
Southeast Asia, and regionalism. With an emphasis on Northeast Asia
the geographical chapters provide a look at how foreign policy
toward separate areas has been guided.
This collection of essays by leading scholars from Japan, China,
South Korea, and the United States examines how and why bitter
historical memories have resurfaced in recent years as freshly
virulent and contentious issues between Japan and its
neighbors—especially China and South Korea. Moreover, it seeks to
identify what set of conditions and what sequence of measures will
enable these modern nations to manage, palliate, and exorcise the
wrongs of the past in a spirit of reconciliation, so that the
dangerous growth of nationalist resentments and revanchism can be
checked. Comfort women … the Yasukuni Shrine … the history
textbook controversies … The single sorest issue confronting East
Asia today is the growing animosity and conflict between Japan and
its neighbors—especially China and South Korea—over their
respective and collective memories of Japan's pre-1945 militaristic
aggression, oppression, and atrocities. Even as East Asia has
established itself as one of the most vibrant economic regions of
the world, the strident nationalisms that have emerged here in the
post-Cold War period have exacerbated historical grievances and
heightened the international tensions that separate Japan from
China and South Korea, blocking the development of an international
system based on comity and cooperation.
