Summary/Abstract |
In the decades following World War II, Japan focused primarily on its relationship with the United States, but it was also able to establish reasonably good relations with many of its Asian neighbors. Since the end of the Cold War, however, the country has faced a more complex foreign policy agenda, and it has been less successful in handling it. One problem is the lack of an organ like the US National Security Council to support the prime minister in identifying issues and making decisions.
