Description

This Bloomsbury Academic Collections title examines the foundational elements of a viable national security policy through Japan's pioneering concept of comprehensive security. Originally published in 1983, the book traces how the emergence of this integrated approach led to the establishment of a Ministerial Council on Comprehensive Security, designed to deliver more coordinated and rational policy-making than previous frameworks. The work provides essential historical context for understanding how Japan balanced defence considerations, diplomatic relations, and strategic dependence during a critical period in post-war security thinking. Scholars, policy analysts, and students of international relations will find this reissue valuable for its rigorous examination of how nations construct multilayered security strategies.

Key Features

Documents the creation and role of Japan's Ministerial Council on Comprehensive Security in coordinating policy across government sectors.
