Japan has been moving toward a more independent security policy
since the early 2010s, duplicating the military assets of the
United States and reorganizing the Self-Defense Forces. In Japan's
Awakening, Lionel P. Fatton and Oreste Foppiani argue that the
country faces an entrapment-abandonment dilemma in which any
attempt to prevent abandonment by the United States vis-a-vis China
negatively affects its national security by heightening the risk of
entrapment in the Korean Peninsula, and vice versa. A move toward
autonomy is the only way for Japan to solve this dilemma. The
subject is at variance with both the insistence on the constraining
effect of domestic norms on Japan's security policy and the
assumption of everlasting reliance on the United States for
protection.
Families are actors and drivers in migration and refugee crises.
However, the current protection frameworks privilege the individual
over the family unit. Consequently, the stories of families in
migration have remained under-researched and their challenges
under-addressed. This volume explores the interplay between family,
separation, and migration in the Middle East, West Africa,
Southeast Asia, Europe, and Latin America, and in the context of
the 2015 global refugee crisis. Guiding it are two questions: How
do family, migration, and separation play out across geographical,
political, and historical contexts? And what are the gaps in the
protection of migrants and their families? Thirteen authors -
academics and practitioners - discuss the international protection
for refugees, migration governance, child mobility, disability and
immigration, human trafficking, and dilemmas in refugee reporting.
The book proposes a paradigm shift in the way we cater to the needs
and aspirations of families on the move. Its authors offer
evidence-based solutions that cut across polarized discussions on
migration and refugees. As such, the volume is aimed at
researchers, students, policymakers, and experts working in
international relations, migration, human rights, and refugee
protection.
