Defenders of Japan: The Post-Imperial Armed Forces 1946-2016, A History: summary, description and annotation

If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Japans post-war armed forces are a paradox, both embarrassing remnants of the past and valuable repositories of experience. This book charts the development of the Japan Self-Defense Forces (JSDF) from 1954 as both unorthodox military institutions and servants of a civil society that decriesmilitarism. Investigating JSDF contributions to Japanese and global security, the evolution of such contributions during and after the Cold War, and their possible reconfiguration for Japans security needs ahead, Garren Mulloy offers insight into the Forces past, present and future. He exploresthe characteristics and contradictions of Japanese policy, including novel approaches in response to an increasingly assertive China, the latent threat of North Korea and contributory pressure from the US. Though the American alliance remains the core of Japanese security, new partnerships andinternational overtures will also shape the Forces place in Prime Minister Abes new vision of proactive contributions to peace. Defenders of Japan deconstructs how the JSDF have adapted and will continue to adapt within domestic norms, caught between unresolved legacies of Japans imperial pastand a dynamically shifting balance of future global power.
