Developmental State? a Comparative Analysis: Japan and Croatia Dissertation Titel der Dissertation Quo vadis, developmental state? A comparative analysis: Japan and Croatia Verfasserin Mag.rer.soc.oec. Maja Šoštarić Angestrebter akademischer Grad Dr.phil. Wien, im April 2009 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 092 300 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Politikwissenschaft Betreuer: Univ. Prof. Dr. Ulrich Brand To my mother and my very best friend, who made me believe that “there’s no such place as far away” Preface and acknowledgements Although I am a graduate in economics, I have always been interested in political science and international affairs. After having graduated in June 2007, I was admitted to Diplomatic Academy of Vienna. Moreover, during summer 2007, I first considered enrolling into a doctoral programme in political science in order to broaden my knowledge in international politics and international relations. Still, I have never wanted to write exclusively about a subject in the field of political science, but rather, my wish was to link the dissertation subject to the knowledge of economics I had already acquired. Actually, political economy caught my interest during my undergraduate studies. I heard about the notion of developmental state for the first time while studying for a Magister in economics, during a class on international economics and development. I knew immediately that I wanted to know more about it. At the same time, I started learning Japanese in 2006 and was absolutely fascinated by the language, and, generally, by Japan’s politics, economics and culture. Hence, for my dissertation topic I decided to merge all subjects I am passionate about in a unique study: political science, economics, Japan, and finally, my own home country, Croatia. Therefore my expression of thanks goes firstly to Professor Ulrich Brand, who did not hesitate to accept the supervision of my doctoral thesis, although I was new at the Institute of Political Sciences. Professor Brand’s valuable advice, helpful assistance and very detailed comments were of great help for me. Moreover, I want to thank Professor Minoru Sawai from the Department of Economics, Osaka University, who was at my disposition for all information I needed during my doctoral research in Osaka in summer 2008. Of course, I must not forget the Japan Foundation in Kansai that selected and fully sponsored me during a two-month programme for young researchers in summer 2008. Both the Japanese language course and the assistance for the doctoral research offered by the Japan Foundation were unmatched and superb. Additionally, I want to mention the Paris Dauphine University, where I spent an exchange semester in 2008/09, and where I was gratefully given permission to use a library designed for the Dauphine master and doctoral students only. Finally, if it had not been for the constant moral and financial support of my mother, I would have never learned what I know today, I certainly would not have seen as much of the world as I did, and, consequently, I would have never written this doctoral thesis.

This thesis aims to explore this question by looking at Japan’s foreign policy in the region and uncovering how political actors manipulated the concept of nationalism in foreign policy discourse.

  • What Can Taiwan (And the United States) Expect from Japan?
    Journal of East Asian Studies 5 (2005), 1–34 What Can Taiwan (and the United States) Expect from Japan? Gregory W. Noble In the 1990s and into the new century, increased Japanese sympathy toward Taiwan and antipathy toward mainland China led to a series of moves to improve treatment of Taiwan, including enhanced transporta- tion links, a higher level and frequency of official contacts, posting of a military attaché, and expressions of support for Taiwan’s participation in regional and international organizations. Nevertheless, Japan remains firmly wedded to a One China policy that opposes both the use of force by the mainland and a declaration by Taiwan of independence from China. Japan’s willingness to cooperate with the United States to defend Taiwan is increasingly in doubt. The sources of Japan’s supportive but restrained policy include the decline of traditional ties with Taiwan, the increasing size of the mainland market, and above all a perception of security risks that ultimately diverges sharply from that of Taiwan. Seri- ous cooperation in defense and diplomacy requires shared (or comple- mentary) threats, not just shared adversaries. KEYWORDS: Japanese foreign policy, Japan-Taiwan relations, Japan- China relations, Sino-Japanese relations onfrontation over the sovereignty of Taiwan is the most likely trig- C ger for superpower conflict in East Asia and perhaps in the entire world.

  • “In Defense of Zionism”
    The Wall Street Journal August 2-3, 2014 The Saturday Essay “In Defense of Zionism” ‘The often reviled ideology that gave rise to Israel has been an astonishing historical success’ By Michael B. Oren A Jewish State: See some key moments in the history of Zionism and Israel Robert Capa/ICP/Magnum Photos They come from every corner of the country—investment bankers, farmers, computer geeks, jazz drummers, botany professors, car mechanics—leaving their jobs and their families. They put on uniforms that are invariably too tight or too baggy, sign out their gear and guns. Then, scrambling onto military vehicles, 70,000 reservists—women and men—join the young conscripts of what is proportionally the world's largest citizen army. They all know that some of them will return maimed or not at all. And yet, without hesitation or (for the most part) complaint, proudly responding to the call-up, Israelis stand ready to defend their nation. They risk their lives for an idea. The idea is Zionism. It is the belief that the Jewish people should have their own sovereign state in the Land of Israel. Though founded less than 150 years ago, the Zionist movement sprung from a 4,000-year-long bond between the Jewish people and its historic homeland, an attachment sustained throughout 20 centuries of exile. This is why Zionism achieved its goals and remains relevant and rigorous today. It is why citizens of Israel—the state that Zionism created—willingly take up arms. They believe their idea is worth fighting for. Yet Zionism, arguably more than any other contemporary ideology, is demonized.
