The European Union’s Approaches to Cyber Diplomacy: Introduction to the Special Forum
EU Influence on Cyber Governance in the Indo-Pacific: A Normative Power in a Contested Space
Building on ‘normative power’ and ‘norm diffusion’ theory, this article examines how the European Union has been evolving as a cyber diplomatic actor in the Indo-Pacific. It argues that EU influence in the region extends beyond traditional economic and political engagement, manifesting most clearly in the promotion of cybercrime legislation, cyber capacity-building, data privacy and cybersecurity governance. Through a comparative analysis of EU c…
A Conceptional Broadening of the Security Order in the Indo-Pacific: The Role of EU-Japan Cooperation in ICT and Cybersecurity
This article argues that the focus of the still nascent Indo-Pacific "security order" should be extended from traditional, predominantly maritime, security concerns to include information and cybersecurity. This reflects the growing awareness that the global and regional security order is increasingly undermined by information technology and an AI duopoly. Therefore, it is necessary to broaden the concept "security order" to "cyber security order…

New Directions in Japan's Security: Non-U. S. Centric Evolution
Rethinking Japan: The Politics of Contested Nationalism
This latest book by a veteran observer of Japanese politics and a diplomatic historian is a warning. The authors argue that ‘the Abe government signals a fundamental change in the politics, economy, and conduct of foreign policy’, that democracy is ‘being twisted into new shapes, very different from the old’ (p. 2), that these ‘changes taking place in the second decade of the 21st century are of seminal importance, and that the scope and impact i…
Japan's new security partnerships: Beyond the security alliance
Learning multilateral military and political cooperation in the counter-piracy missions: A step towards de-centering of Japan's security policy
In January 2009, the Japanese government decided to join the multilateral-force counter-piracy operations in the Gulf of Aden and the coast of Somalia and has since then developed into one of the most active and involved forces combatting maritime piracy. This special issue defines de-centering as a ‘process of moving away from a state of centering by building relationships with other partners’ through ‘security and defense consultations and dial…

Rethinking Japanese Public Opinion and Security: From Pacifism to Realism
Until the Japanese government's decision to participate in the so-called war on terror by first sending maritime self-defense force (SDF) ships to refueling missions in the Indian Ocean in 2001, and then by dispatching ground self-defense force troops to Southern Iraq, the overall view of Japanese security policy had been that it was constrained by article 9 as well as strong public support for perhaps pacifist attitudes. However, these developme…
The Emergence of a Civil Society in Japan
Japanese society has often been portrayed as fundamentally “harmoni-ous ” and the Japanese themselves have often been described as hard-working, docile, and politically rather passive, preferring to leave the important decisions about the future of their nation to bureaucrats and
