Drawing on the work of Karl W. Deutsch, this book argues that the United States and Japan have formed their own security community, based on a sense of “collective identity.” In so doing, it provides a new theoretical outlook on co- operation between the United States and Japan, offering a fresh understanding of their bilateral relationship as one that goes beyond a mere military alliance or free trade partnership.Taking an empirical approach, Sakai analyzes three key case studies: the Persian Gulf War of 1990–1, the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and the Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami of 2011. He examines how the United States and Japan interacted with one another in their discourses and behaviors in these three instances and thus demonstrates the existence of a collective identity between the two nations.

This edited volume offers international perspectives on managing the escalating tensions surrounding Taiwan.The book examines responses of key stakeholders to the issue, including Japan, Australia, South Korea, India, Canada, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, the United Kingdom, and the European Union. The chapters analyze how these states navigate and manage the intricacies of the US–China rivalry over Taiwan, focusing on strategies such as balancing and hedging. While existing works explore the policies of China, Taiwan, and the United States regarding Taiwan’s status, there is little scholarship addressing the stances other international stakeholders. This volume fills that gap by analyzing the strategies and policies these stakeholders adopt to deter China, their efforts to safeguard economic and political interests, and the challenges they face in balancing relations with the US, China, and Taiwan. Collectively, the chapters deepen our understanding of the strategic dynamics surrounding Taiwan and shed light on the roles played by key actors striving to uphold peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific.This book will be of interest to students of Asian security, Chinese politics, and International Relations.

"The lost two decades" of Japan’s economic power since the early 1990s have generated the image among scholars in the discipline of international relations (IR) that Japan is no longer a significant player. Hence, today’s IR literature focuses on the rise of China. Re-rising Japan: Its Strategic Power in International Relations challenges this trend by showing up-to-date evidence that Japan is still a major power in today’s international relations where the interests and power of the United States and China have increasingly clashed over many issues. Indeed, since the Abe cabinet re-emerged in December 2012, there has been growing academic interest in Japan’s bold monetary/financial/social policies (Abenomics) and relatively assertive security policy. Where is Japan heading, and what path has it taken since the 2000s? This book responds to these questions. Re-rising Japan assembles the latest studies on Japan written by today’s young and energetic scholars. It consists of three parts: (1) Geopolitics, (2) Domestic Political-Social Norms and Values, and (3) Asian Regional Integration and Institutionalizations. The individual chapters reveal what power assets Japan has and their strength and weakness in today’s international relations. Readers will attain a complete picture of Japan and its evolving new strategy in the decaying U.S. unipolar system where China has been behaving as a revisionist state.
