Informationen zum Autor Edited by Yoichi Funabashi and G. John Ikenberry Klappentext Japan's challenges and opportunities in a new era of uncertaintyHenry Kissinger wrote a few years ago that Japan has been for seven decades "an important anchor of Asian stability and global peace and prosperity." However, Japan has only played this anchoring role within an American-led liberal international order built from the ashes of World War II. Now that order itself is under siege, not just from illiberal forces such as China and Russia but from its very core, the United States under Donald Trump. The already evident damage to that order, and even its possible collapse, pose particular challenges for Japan, as explored in this book. Zusammenfassung Outlines today's challenges to the liberal international order! proposes a role for Japan to uphold! reform and shape the order! and examines Japan's assets as well as constraints as it seeks to play the role of a proactive stabilizer in the Asia-Pacific.
