East Asian Community” in Vain
ISS Discussion Paper Series F-172 Building an “East Asian Community” in vain: Japan's Power Shift and Regionalism in the New Millennium Hiroyuki Hoshiro1 1 Institute of Social Science, The University of Tokyo ([email protected]) 1 Abstract In August 2009, as a result of the “historical” general election of Japan, the Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) gained legislative majority and took over the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) government, which had been in power for more than 16 years. One of the most noteworthy foreign policies launched by the new Japanese government was aimed at building an “East Asian Community;” however, little progress was observed with regards to the promotion of economic regionalism, during the DPJ era (2009-2012). Why was this policy not as actively pursued by the DPJ cabinet as originally intended? This is puzzling, given the fact that economic regionalism was one of the Prime Minister’s most favored policies; and that there was an absence of significant objections from opposition parties with regards to this policy. This paper addresses this question by elucidating factors that promoted or impeded the building of an “East Asian Community” from the perspective of Japanese domestic politics. In particular, this paper sheds light on the preferences of the existing societal organizations of land, capital, and labor, on the one hand, and their relationships with the ruling government, on the other. This paper shows that the previous DPJ government, having been an advocate of economic regionalism in East Asia, has, in fact, experienced strong dissent among its supporters. -
Vor Dem Rechtsruck in Japan: Die Unterhauswahl Wirft Ihren Schatten Voraus Patrick Köllner Und Anna Yumi Pohl
Nummer 10 2012 ISSN 1862-359X Vor dem Rechtsruck in Japan: Die Unterhauswahl wirft ihren Schatten voraus Patrick Köllner und Anna Yumi Pohl Gut drei Jahre nach dem Erdrutschsieg der Demokratischen Partei Japans (DPJ), wel- cher die seit 1955 fast ununterbrochene Regierung der konservativen Liberaldemokra- tischen Partei (LDP) beendete, steht in Japan am 16. Dezember 2012 wieder eine Unter- hauswahl an. Analyse Die Regierungsperiode der DPJ stand unter einem schlechten Stern. Die Folgen der Welt- wirtschaftskrise, der Nuklearkatastrophe nach dem verheerenden Erdbeben und Tsu- nami vom 11. März 2011 sowie der angespannten Außenbeziehungen Japans zu China, Südkorea und den USA, die teilweise selbstverschuldet waren, bildeten einige der zen- tralen Herausforderungen, denen sich die DPJ-geführte Regierung seit dem Jahr 2009 stellen musste. Drei Premierminister haben das Land seit September 2009 regiert und die Hoffnung auf große Veränderungen, die der DPJ zu ihrem spektakulären Wahlsieg verhalf, ist allgemeiner Desillusionierung gewichen. In der Bevölkerung besteht große Unzufriedenheit angesichts der Neigung zur po- litischen Blockade, die nicht nur die Regierungszeit der DPJ seit der Oberhauswahl- niederlage im Jahr 2010, sondern auch schon die finale Phase der vorangegangenen Regierung aus LDP und Neuer Kōmeitō gekennzeichnet hat. Vermutlich wird keine Partei bei der kommenden Unterhauswahl eine alleinige Mehrheit erringen können. Vieles hängt vom Abschneiden der neu gegründeten (Protest-)Partei „Japans Restaurationspartei“ (Nippon Ishin no Kai) um Osakas Bür- germeister Tōru Hashimoto und Tokyos Ex-Gouverneur Shintarō Ishihara ab. Insbe- sondere von Hashimoto erhoffen sich nicht wenige Japaner ein Aufbrechen der ver- krusteten politischen Strukturen. Die jüngst wieder aufgeflammtenaufgeflammten territorialen Dispute mit China und Südkorea spiespie-- len Politikern in die Hände, die eine Änderung der pazifistischen Nachkriegsverfas- sung sowie eine härtere Linie gegenüber Japans Nachbarländern befürworten. -
U.S.-Japan Economic Relations: Significance, Prospects, and Policy Options
U.S.-Japan Economic Relations: Significance, Prospects, and Policy Options William H. Cooper Specialist in International Trade and Finance March 11, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL32649 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress U.S.-Japan Economic Relations: Significance, Prospects, and Policy Options Summary Japan and the United States are the two largest economic powers. Together they account for over 30% of world domestic product, for a significant portion of international trade in goods and services, and for a major portion of international investment. This economic clout makes the United States and Japan potentially powerful actors in the world economy. Economic conditions in the United States and Japan have a significant impact on the rest of the world. Furthermore, the U.S.-Japan bilateral economic relationship can influence economic conditions in other countries. The U.S.-Japan economic relationship is very strong and mutually advantageous. The two economies are highly integrated via trade in goods and services—they are large markets for each other’s exports and important sources of imports. More importantly, Japan and the United States are closely connected via capital flows. Japan is a major foreign source of financing of the U.S. national debt and will likely remain so for the foreseeable future, as the mounting U.S. debt needs to be financed and the stock of U.S. domestic savings remains insufficient to meet the demand. Japan is also a significant source of foreign private portfolio and direct investment in the United States, and the United States is the origin of much of the foreign investment in Japan. -

Japan-US Relations: Issues for Congress
Japan-U.S. Relations: Issues for Congress Emma Chanlett-Avery, Coordinator Specialist in Asian Affairs William H. Cooper Specialist in International Trade and Finance Mark E. Manyin Specialist in Asian Affairs June 11, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL33436 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Japan-U.S. Relations: Issues for Congress Summary The post-World War II U.S.-Japan alliance has long been an anchor of the U.S. security role in East Asia. The alliance facilitates the forward deployment of about 36,000 U.S. troops and other U.S. military assets in the Asia-Pacific, thereby undergirding U.S. national security strategy in the region. For Japan, the alliance and the U.S. nuclear umbrella provide maneuvering room in dealing with its neighbors, particularly China and North Korea. U.S.-Japan relations have been adjusting to the Democratic Party of Japan’s (DPJ) landslide victory in the August 30, 2009 elections for the Lower House of Japan’s legislature. With the resignation of the DPJ’s first prime minister, Yukio Hatoyama, the United States must now adjust to the leadership of Naoto Kan, the new premier. While most members of the left-of-center DPJ are broadly supportive of the U.S.-Japan alliance and the general thrust of Japanese foreign policy, in the past the party has questioned and/or voted against several features of the alliance, including base realignment and Japan’s financial payments for U.S. forces stationed in Japan. The Party has put forward a foreign policy vision that envisions greater “equality” in Japan’s relations with the United States, in part through deeper engagement with Asia and a more United Nations- oriented diplomacy. -
