Japan as a Post-Cold War Model

Abstract

Massive changes in the superpowers and the international system call for a rethinking of the basic ideas underlying security policy. Those underlying Japanese practice in recent decades contrast strikingly with those on which the approach taken by the USA, USSR and major Western European powers is based. The Japanese approach emphasizes political economy factors and rests on distinct premises about the military elements that enhance national security. The Japanese model merits attention as an ensemble of elements (Bobrow, 1991, 1992), not for the uniqueness of its particulars or the political-military context of North-East Asia (Kahler, 1991; Mack, 1991).
