The Yasukuni Shrine Conundrum
For most countries, remembering and mourning the war dead is natural and uncontroversial. In Japan, however, how to venerate those who lost their lives fighting in wars has been contentious because of the Yasukuni Shrine issue.

Japan's shifting strategy toward the rise of China
After examining different theoretical expectations of how Japan might respond strategically to the rise of China, this article analyzes the evolution of Japan's policy toward China from 1972 to 2006.

The improvement of Soviet-American relations lessens the possibility of Japan becoming embroiled in a military conflict between the superpowers.
