Temporal Identities and Security Policy in Postwar Japan
Japan continues to be an intriguing case for scholars of international relations, both in terms of its continuing policy evolution and through the ability to apply or develop new theories and methods in the study of international relations (IR) using the case of Japan. The scholarly world is not bereft of books examining postwar Japanese security policy. It is thus especially important to be able to articulate what the new contribution is of yet …

Normalizing Japan
Normalizing Japan explains how politics and identity have interacted in postwar Japan to shape Japans distinctive security practices, offering a useful framework for understanding the important change taking place in Japanese security policy today
Japan Rearmed
In case you missed the memo – as many have, apparently – Japan has rearmed. We are beyond the era of gerunds, as Michael Green once described the last round of books related to Japan’s security policy – Japan Rising, Normalizing Japan, Securing Japan. As Smith writes: ‘Japan’s navy [Maritime Self-Defense Force, to purists] was second to none in the Asia Pacific’ even 30 years ago (p. 47). ‘By the early 2000s, the merits of Japan’s ability to laun…
Japan's Security Renaissance
In this analysis of Japan's changing military policy, Andrew L. Oros shows how a gradual awakening to new security challenges has culminated in the multifaceted "security renaissance" of the past decade. Bringing together Japanese domestic politics with the broader geopolitical landscape, he provides guidance on emerging international dynamics.
The politics of national security
Japan's Strategic Culture
Japan has shown three distinct strategic cultures since its emergence as a modern state in the 19th century: isolationist and non-military, militarist, and post-World War II strategic culture characterized by great reluctance to use military power abroad, even in collective self-defence. This article examines Japan's strategic culture and the potential for a fourth distinct strategic culture through the broader framework of security identity, arg…
International and domestic challenges to Japan's postwar security identity
Japan today is widely portrayed as on the verge of a significant identity shift that could lead to dramatic new security policies. Yet, Japan's first formal national security strategy, adopted in December 2013, proclaims repeatedly Japan's long-standing ‘peace-loving’ policies and principles. Why does a conservative government with high levels of popular support not pursue policies more in line with views widely reported to be central to its valu…
Explaining Japan's Tortured Course to Surveillance Satellites
On December 25, 1998 the Japanese government reinterpreted a long-standing policy prohibiting the use of outer space for military purposes by announcing its intention to develop a network of domestically produced and deployed "information-gathering" satellites to be utilized primarily by theJapan Defense Agency(JDA) and other national security institutions. This decision is important in its own right-for one, Japan is a major player in the space …
