Japan's World Power
Since the end of the 1960s, Japan's power in the world has largely been linked to its economic successes, while it has pursued a decidedly pacifist post-war foreign policy. Recently, however, there has been talk of Constitutional reform, especially since the new security legislation of 2016. Coupled with the conservative tilt of the two Houses, there is evidence to suggest that Japan's approach to exercising its power could be changing. Japan's World Power therefore seeks to examine the nature of Japan's power today, showing how the country's influence on the global stage appears to be shifting from economic and financial, to more political and military. Featuring a team of Japanese internat...

The Abe Legacy
The book offers a study of a fascinating political personality, that of Japanese prime minister Abe Shinzôō (2012-2020). Abe's political career was boosted by his predecessor Koizumi Jun.ichirōô and he seemed extremely promising at 51 when he rose to become the youngest Cabinet Secretariat chief, however once in power in 2007 he disappointed by resigning after only one year. Yet, he rose again in 2012 to become the longest-serving prime minister of Japan's history since the end of the Meiji Era (1868-1912), when Japan went through a radical process of modernisation and westernisation, becoming a major military and imperialist power in the process. The book seeks to answer three questions. How could Abe Shinzô remain in power for nearly a decade in a country where prime ministers usually have much shorter terms, in some cases of only one year? He remained in power in spite of the fact that he sought to conduct massive reforms. What was the policy mix devised to keep voters happy, while promoting structural reforms and growth? He was in power for almost ten years. What is his legacy: what remains of his tenure as chief executive?
Le Japon dans le monde
Le Japon entretient avec la notion de puissance une relation complexe. Archipel, il inscrit dans sa Constitution de 1946 l'interdiction du maintien d'un potentiel de guerre, ce qui l'arrime durablement au camp occidental dont il a besoin pour assurer sa sécurité. Pourtant, la diplomatie japonaise a toujours réussi à jouir d'une relative autonomie, en partie grâce au miracle économique qu'a connu ce pays. Dès la fin du XIXe siècle en effet, le Japon fait le pari de la modernité jusqu'à devenir la deuxième puissance économique mondiale. Mais en ce début de XXIe siècle, alors qu'il dispose d'un capital sympathie unique au monde, par le biais de sa culture, les défis sont nombreux...

Reciprocity
Jean-Paul Delamotte A.M. (1931-2019) was a French writer and film producer who visited Australia in 1974, and promptly engaged with translating and promoting Australian culture through its films and books.

Géopolitique et géoéconomie du monde contemporain
Vingt ans après le 11 septembre 2001, le monde continue de connaître des soubresauts majeurs et de profondes recompositions de puissances. L'ordre international mis en place peu après la Seconde Guerre mondiale est remis en cause. La géopolitique et la géoéconomie permettent d'analyser ces changements, et c'est l'ambition de ce manuel que d'offrir les clefs de compréhension du monde contemporain (XXe et XXIe siècles). Cet ouvrage traite dans une première partie des grandes lignes de force géopolitiques et géoéconomiques du monde d'aujourd'hui, en lien avec l'affirmation d'un contexte général de mondialisation qui en complexifie la lecture. Il en donne les principaux instruments...
