Japanese Foreign Policy and Understanding Japanese Politics: The Writings of J.A.A. Stockwin: The Writings of, cartea 5

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 ian 2012
From the translator s Introduction The chapters in this volume, which cover a broad range of issues, including Parhae s political history, territory, international relations, trade with its neighbours, and culture, explore all of this and more, including Russian and Japanese claims about Parhae. But the main thrust here is the critical examination of Chinese assertions about Parhae and the demonstration of political, ethnic, and cultural links between Koguryo and Parhae. The research done on all sides in recent decades has brought to light considerable new evidence, particularly archaeological data. Nonetheless, that data, too, is still fragmentary and is often used to make nationalistic interpretations. The authors in this volume all recognize the problematic nature of nationalist narratives as applied to the history of Parhae Even so, it seems to me that, taken as a whole, the interpretations advanced by these authors are more sustainable than many of those advanced by Chinese scholars. It is my hope that this volume will stimulate greater interest in the history of Parhae and beyond to a more general history of the Manchurian region in early times. John B. Duncan (UCLA)

Descriere

Known internationally for his research, writings and commentaries on the politics of modern and contemporary Japan, this two-volume work brings together much of his considerable archive of published as well as unpublished research over the past fifty years, some dating back to his early years as a scholar in the 1960s at ANU’s Department of Political Science. Structured thematically, Volume I comprises Part I: Japanese Foreign Policy; Part II: Australia-Japan Relations; Part III: Democracy in Japan and Asia; Volume II comprises Part I: Understanding Japanese Politics; Part II: Teaching and Research in Japanese Studies. Volume II complements his earlier Collected Writings which focuses specifically on the politics and political environment of Japan up to the date of publication (2004). J.A.A. Stockwin has also been a lead reviewer of new publications in his field; a list of his principal reviews together with a bibliography of his complete output can be found at the back of Volume II of this work. Both volumes are separately indexed.
