Abstract
Southeast Asia has been an important testing ground for postwar Japanese foreign policy. It was in Southeast Asia that the United States first pressed Japan to emerge from defeat and isolation after the war by providing reparations to help buttress the region against the threat of communism. And in the post—Cold War era, it is Southeast Asia where Japan has made its most pronounced attempt to establish a different identity from U.S. foreign policy.
