“The book is no doubt an important intellectual contribution and a substantial addition to the existing studies on Japan’s foreign assistance. I hope that the book will be widely read by researchers, policymakers, and practitioners in the related field. I also trust that it will trigger future research on Japanese ODA including the analysis of unique contributions that Japan can make to help build self-reliant economies in the developing regions in the SDGs era.” (Izumi Ohno, Social Science Japan Journal, Vol. 20 (2), August, 2017)
