Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. "Washington's relationship with Tokyo is generally considered the most important of the United States' 70-odd alliances. In this intimately knowledgeable book, Smith shows how that alliance looks to the Japanese: increasingly unreliable."-Andrew J. Nathan, Foreign Affairs"Masterfully traces the interplay of Japan's military heritage, politics, national sentiment, threats, and alliance with the United States in the formation and development of the Self-Defense Force. Even experts will find new information and insights."-Admiral Dennis Blair, US Navy (Ret.), former Commander-in-Chief, US Pacific Command"A must-read for US policymakers responsible for Asia." -J. Thomas Schieffer, former US Ambassador to Japan"A highly readable and richly detailed account of Japan's rearmament and the politics surrounding it."-Journal of AmericanEast Asian RelationsJapan has one of Asia's most technologically advanced militaries, yet it has struggled to use its hard power as an instrument of national policy. The horrors of World War II continue to haunt policymakers in Tokyo, but a fundamental shift in East Asian geopolitics has forced Japan to rethink its commitment to pacifism. Its military, once feared as a security liability, now appears to be an indispensable asset.In Japan Rearmed, Sheila Smith argues that Japan is not only responding to threats from North Korean missiles and Chinese maritime activities, it is fundamentally reevaluating its dependence on the United States as its leaders confront the very real possibility that they may soon need to prepare for war. Modern Japan is not only responding to threats from North Korea and China but is also reevaluating its dependence on the United States, Sheila Smith shows. No longer convinced they can rely on Americans to defend their country, Tokyos political leaders are now confronting the possibility that they may need to prepare the nations military for war.
