The Japan-US alliance: Twenty-first century challenges in East Asia (2001) (original) (raw)

The Japan-US alliance, a significant politico-security partnership in East Asia, remains critically relevant in addressing evolving regional challenges in the 21st century. Analyzing the alliance within the broader East Asian context, this volume arises from collaborative efforts of Japanese scholars and offers comprehensive insights into the alliance's dynamics, with implications for policy and future scenarios to navigate regional transformations. While the publication is largely commendable in its structure and content, minor criticisms regarding its title and lack of a conclusive chapter exist, yet the work is a notable contribution to understanding Japan-US relations.
