The Japanese question presents the spectre of a resurgent nation with immense economic power and a history that prompts concern whether it will again threaten its neighbours. This book describes Japan's strategy in the postwar era of relying on US defence while creating its economic miracle.

No nation was more deeply affected by America's rise to power than Japan. The price paid to end the most intrusive reconstruction of a nation in modern history was a cold war alliance with the U.S. that ensured American dominance in the region. Kenneth Pyle offers a thoughtful history of this relationship at a time when the alliance is changing.
