Stimson Center 1111 19th Street, NW 12th Floor Washington, DC 20036 phone: 202-223-5956 fax: 202-238-9604 www.stimson.org BRAZIL | 3 PREFACE I am pleased to present Brazil, Japan, and Turkey, the sixth in a series of Stimson publications addressing questions of how the elimination of nuclear weapons might be achieved. The Stimson project on nuclear security explores the practical dimensions of this critical 21st century debate, to identify both political and technical obstacles that could block the road to “zero,” and to outline how each of these could be removed. Led by Stimson's co-founder and Distinguished Fellow Dr. Barry Blechman, the project provides useful analyses that can help US and world leaders make the elimination of nuclear weapons a realistic and viable option. The series comprises country assessments, published in a total of six different monographs, and a separate volume on such technical issues as verification and enforcement of a disarmament regime, to be published in the fall. This sixth monograph in the series, following volumes on France and the United Kingdom, China and India, Israel and Pakistan, Iran and North Korea, and Russia and the United States, examines three countries without nuclear weapons of their own, but which are nonetheless key states that would need to be engaged constructively in any serious move toward eliminating nuclear weapons.

  • WHITE PAPER on SCIENCE and TECHNOLOGY 2005 Japan's
    Foreword Science and technology brings new “knowledge” to mankind, and greatly contributes to improving our lives and developing the society and economy. Today, the environment surrounding Japan is becoming severer with the advancement of the declining birthrate and aging of the population as well as a decrease in the total population. In order for Japan, which is poor in natural resources, to achieve a safe and secure society while continuing to maintain its international competitiveness, science and technology will be expected to play an increasingly important role in the future. This year marks the tenth year from the promulgation and entry into force of the Science and Technology Basic Law, which indicates the basic framework of Japan’s science and technology policies. At the same time, it is the final fiscal year for the Second Science and Technology Basic Plan—key principles based on the Basic Law—and the year for preparing for formulation of the Basic Plan for the next period. Thus, it is an important year, which will be a turning point for science and technology administration. Since the enactment of the Science and Technology Basic Law the government has engaged in various measures including an increase and prioritization of science and technology budget and reform of the science and technology system. These efforts are steadily producing results and spillover effects. On the other hand, because science and technology has become ever more sophisticated and complicated and has deeply penetrated people’s lives, people have become less aware of science and technology. This is possibly one of the causes for people’s declining interest in science and technology.

  • An Aspect of Politics in Japan, 1999–2006
    International Journal of East Asia Studies, 22(2) (2018), 86-105. Decision-Making Process of Revision to the Basic Act on Education: An Aspect of Politics in Japan, 1999–2006 Norifumi Takeishi1 1 College of Nursing, St. Luke’s International University, Japan Corresponding Author: Norifumi Takeishi, College of Nursing, St. Luke’s International University, Tokyo 104-0044, Japan E-mail: [email protected] 86 Abstract By analyzing revision process of the Basic Act on Education (BAE), this study examined jockeying among political actors in Japan, 1999-2006. Particularly, we discuss this process’s meanings to three important political actors, the Diet mem- bers’ group of the LDP with a special interest in education (Bunkyozoku), the struc- tural reformist group of the LDP, and another ruling party, the Komeito Party. This revision to the BAE, believed the most difficult educational reform to coordinate within the LDP and among coalition parties, was resolved with few unpleasant feelings among actors because each received some satisfying benefits. However, from the long-term standpoint, for ruling parties overall, this “achievement” was not necessarily positive. Citizens did not desire such an ideological educational re- form as this revision; thus, it pulled many votes from ruling parties. That is to say, the revision’s “success” resulted in accelerating diminished approval ratings for ruling parties, especially the LDP. Keywords: political actors, ruling coalition parties, Junichiro Koizumi and Shinzo Abe, Liberal Democratic Party of Japan (LDP), election 87 International Journal of East Asia Studies, 22(2) (2018) Introduction Globalization’s advances have created two domestic trends.

  • US-Japan Relations
    Comparative Connections A Quarterly E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations U.S.-Japan Relations: Be careful what you wish for Brad Glosserman Pacific Forum CSIS In a show of political derring-do, Japanese Prime Minister Koizumi Junichiro called a snap election in August after facing resistance to economic reform from his own party. The prime minister read the public mood well: the ballot produced a landslide victory that permitted him to steamroll the opposition both within the Diet and within his party. In theory, Koizumi’s new strength should help the alliance; his new mandate should cover security policies, too. In reality, voters were thinking less expansively, however. And in practical terms, the political landscape has been so transformed that adjusting to it will take time. Important decisions will not be made and patience will be at a premium. Delays hit two important U.S. concerns: redeploying U.S. forces in Japan and lifting the ban on U.S. beef imports. Failure to resolve these issues is ratcheting up pressure in Washington and may even prompt a public falling out. Congressional hearings that evoke the Japan bashing of old may be a harbinger of things to come in the next quarter. Landslides and quicksand Prime Minister Koizumi took office four years ago promising to transform his Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) or destroy it. This quarter he finally made good on that pledge. After his cherished postal reform legislation was defeated in the Upper House on Aug. 8 – by rebels from his own party – Koizumi dissolved the Lower House and called a special election to get a mandate for reform.
