The Nissan Institute/Routledge Japanese Studies Series Editorial Board J. Euan Graham is a senior research officer for the North Asia and Pacific Research Group at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in London. Japan’s Sea Lane Security, 1940–2004 reveals a neglected but important aspect of Japan’s military and economic security, investigating why officials and analysts continue to portray the defence of Japan’s sea lanes as ‘a matter of life and death’. Although Japan’s security policies have undergone relatively rapid changes a defence policy review in December 2004 concluded that ‘securing Japan’s sea lanes is crucial to Japan’s prosperity and development’. Graham argues that there is a basic continuity in Japan’s defence and foreign policy, borne out in policymakers’ ingrained perceptions of Japan as a resource-poor nation in a hostile international environment. The book investigates how, despite radical changes to Japan’s economic and political structures, this remains a defining feature of the country’s political economy. From the late nineteenth century onwards Japan has depended upon seaborne imports of food, energy and industrial commodities for its prosperity and survival. Drawing upon case study material and primary research including interviews with officials and security analysts, the book presents a chronological analysis of Japan’s sea lane security. Tracing issues from pre- and post-1945 eras, the book explores how Japan’s concerns with sea lane protection have developed across such diverse fields as military strategy, diplomacy, trade policy, energy security and law enforcement. This is the first major English language study to comprehensively explore the broad and longstanding connections between Japan’s national security and the safety of its sea lanes. 1 Japan’s maritime trade and trade routes.ģ Japan’s pre-1945 SLOC security.Ĥ Japan’s sea lane security in the era of defence constraints, 1945–77.ĥ Sea lane defence and alliance cooperation, 1977–90.Ħ Japan’s sea lane diplomacy in Southeast Asia since the 1970s.ħ Japan’s post-Cold War SLOC security.Ĩ Japan’s post-Cold War SLOC security.
