Japanese security, economic, institutional, and developmental
policies have undergone a remarkable evolution in the 70 years
since the end of World War II. In this volume, distinguished
Japanese scholars reflect on the evolution of these policies and
draw lessons for the coming decades. The pillars of Japan's reentry
into the international community since 1945 remain no less
important seven decades later as Japan's economy and society enter
the next phase of maturity. The authors demonstrate the continuing
viability of Japan's postwar strategic choices, as well as the
inevitability of adaptation to challenging new circumstances. This
book will be of interest to historians of U.S.-Japan relations and
policy makers seeking to place today's policy issues in a
historical context. Contributions by Akiko Imai, Akiko Fukushima,
Jun Saito, Kazuya Sakamoto, Yoshihide Soeya, and Yoko Takeda
This report seeks to clarify the stated objectives of the US
rebalance strategy, reviewing regional responses, and assessing the
status of the rebalance, which is critical to reinforcing regional
stability by strengthening US relationships, presence, and
capabilities. The authors evaluate both public statements and
visible implementation of the rebalance strategy, as viewed not
only from Washington but from regional capitals as well.
This report is the first regional study in the CSIS Federated
Defense series. The Federated Defense Project aims to shift the
paradigm with key allies and partners from capacity building to a
federated approach that would expand regional security and
prosperity by joining regional allies and partners together in the
pursuit of shared security objectives across the conflict spectrum.
Federated defense should include forward-thinking strategies for
how to develop and share capabilities and capacity, thereby more
deeply integrating the US military with its allies and partners. In
this report, the CSIS project team highlights six potential
federated initiatives in the areas of humanitarian assistance and
disaster relief, information and intelligence sharing, maritime
security, undersea warfare, missile defense, and cyber security.
Federated approaches such as these are vital to developing and
integrating Asian security capabilities to manage emerging security
challenges.
Is Japan capable of grand strategy when it comes to foreign policy?
Modern Japan faces challenges on every front: from a rising China
and constrained economic growth at home, to an ever-present threat
posed by an increasingly unstable North Korea, to an evolving and
complex relationship with the West that for so long has served as
the bedrock of Japanese foreign policy. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe
has garnered significant attention for his policies undergirding a
path of "proactive pacifism" for Japan, but many questions remain
unanswered with regard to what Japan's global role ought to be,
what it can be, and what that role's development would mean for the
greater stability of the region and the fate of broader
geopolitical alliances across the world. While it is clear that
both Japan and its allies would be best served by a clear,
comprehensive, and forward-thinking Japanese foreign policy
blueprint, but actually developing and implementing such a policy
is understandably easier said than done. Fortunately, shaping this
new strategy is a generation of Japanese foreign policy experts
with eyes toward the future of Japanese power and diplomacy. In
Strategic Japan: New Approaches to Foreign Policy and the U.S.
Japan Alliance, five preeminent scholars: Yasuhiro Matsuda, Tetsuo
Kotani, Hiroyasu Akutsu, Yoshikazu Kobayashi, and Nobuhiro Aizawa
discuss Japan's changing role in the world and the high stakes
policy issues affecting Japan, Asia, and the world today. Taken
together, these experts' contributions highlight potential areas
for enhanced cooperation between the United States and Japan at a
time when the West desperately needs a confident and proactive
Japan, and Japan needs sustained American engagement and deterrence
in an Asia-Pacific region that will continue to be the site of
economic growth and expansion for years to come.
