초록
Japan's security policies have long been understood to be restrained by its pacifist norms. The pacifism entails Japan's enduring policy principle of relinquishing military resources as a policy means. This study problematizes such a lopsided normative view and argues that the pacifist norm represents only a half of Japan's national identity. Japan has consolidated a unique national identity that could cultivate both imperialist and pacifist policies depending on its policy audiences. This study explores the historical development of the national identity and demonstrates that it survived Japan's defeat in the Pacific War. The national identity defined in such a way better accounts for Japan's current turn to be more aggressive in security affairs.
Abstract
Japan's security policies have long been understood to be restrained by its pacifist norms. The pacifism entails Japan's enduring policy principle of relinquishing military resources as a policy means. This study problematizes such a lopsided normative view and argues that the pacifist norm represents only a half of Japan's national identity. Japan has consolidated a unique national identity that could cultivate both imperialist and pacifist policies depending on its policy audiences. This study explores the historical development of the national identity and demonstrates that it survived Japan's defeat in the Pacific War. The national identity defined in such a way better accounts for Japan's current turn to be more aggressive in security affairs.
