Summary / Abstract (Note)Japan's strong economic performance and its disproportionately low profile in international affairs up to the 1990s led many observers to reasonably conclude that the country's foreign policy, including its aid policy, was organized to advance national economic interests. But Japan responded to new international approaches to aid that ran counter to its own by modifying its approach and seeking to establish itself as a leader in the aid field. The formation of an economic development program for Vietnam presented Japan with a test for its newly adopted strategy. This article examines Japan's new aid approach to the world and its goals through a case study of its involvement in Vietnam's economic development program.
