FROM THE DEFENCE AGENCY TO THE JAPANESE MINISTRY OF DEFENCE -THE (RE)BIRTH OF A MILITARY POWER
Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2007, Vol 22, Issue 1
Abstract
The end of the Cold War, the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the persistence of the asymmetric threats, the globalization or the irresistible rise of China do not represent the only “strategically surprises” of the latest years. After 60 years of penance and lethargy, the Japanese military giant wakes up and looks to the future with a very changed approach, despite its neighbour’s reticence. The specialists consider that the impact of such a re-orientation, along with the re-evaluation of Japan’s foreign policy and the reconsideration of the country’s international status, will be spectacular and it will change the grid of geopolitical analysis of Asia.
