Japan’s US Policy under DPJ and Its Domestic Background: Still Recovering from the Unarticulated “Changes”
Chapter
Abstract
The devastating electoral defeat of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) in fall 2009 resulted in a period of turmoil in the US-Japan relations. A de javu of the 1993 defeat of the LDP to long-term observers of Japanese foreign policy, the current state of US-Japan relations suffers from both amateurism of the inexperienced politicians and lack of cohesion in the new ruling party.
