Summary

"The U.S.-Japan alliance is now confronting its most critical test since its inception in 1951. With the current economic crisis in Asia, China's growing power in the international arena, and Japan's economic decline and political immobility, the underlying assumptions that have traditionally guided U.S.-Japan relations are being challenged. The alliance itself will need to be redefined." "Alliance Adrift offers a dynamic and informative overview of this redefining process." "In an in-depth study based on extensive interviews with over 200 U.S. and Japanese government officials, scholars, and others, noted Japanese journalist Yoichi Funabashi explores the historical accounts, social psychology, and organizational forces behind this process."--Jacket
