Om denne bog
Why does the Japanese government often alter its course of action under pressure from the United States, even when doing so apparently undermines Japan''s own interests? Japan''s marked responsiveness to U.S. preferences regarding foreign aid policy appears counterintuitive, since Japan''s demonstrated capability to donate funds rivals and has previously surpassed that of the U.S. In Limits to Power, Akitoshi Miyashita posits that Japan''s deference to the will of the U.S. results from Japan''s continuing role as the more dependent partner in the two countries'' interdependent diplomatic and economic relationship. Miyashita critically reviews the existing literature on Japanese foreign aid, then tests his own argument against five case studies. After analyzing critical junctures in Japan''s history of foreign aid to China, Vietnam, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, he concludes that Japan''s consistent sway under U.S. opinion reflects an act of will on Japan''s part, rather than a lack of coherent policy stemming from bureaucratic politics. Limits to Power boldly challenges current arguments that Japan has successfully distanced itself from "reactive" politics.
