Its role in the world was simple, and times were good. But times have changed. With the end of the Cold War, a shrinking domestic population, global instabilities after 9/11, the financial crisis, and other seismic shifts, Japan now faces a more complicated world. In this groundbreaking and provocative discussion, three foreigners who have lived and worked in Japan, a Canadian, a Frenchman and a Spaniard, argue that Japan has much to gain by pursuing a more engaged, outward-looking, multilateral posture in its region and globally. While the country will continue to enjoy good relations with the West, the time has come for Japan to embrace its Asian heritage and future, as well as its own potential contribution to world affairs. A globally engaged, more open Japan, the authors argue, is win win win: good for Japan, good for Asia, and good for the world. If Japan is truly to become a global citizen, however, it must not only reach out more to the world, it must also admit more of the world, new ideas, people, and capital from afar, on its own soil. But is Japan, are Japanese, prepared to do so? 0aNational characteristics, Japanese.932935 0aGlobalizationzJapan.932936 0aJapanxEconomic conditionsy1989-95153 0aJapanxCommerce.932937  bPolcMarch20131 aCasas i Klett, Tomas.9329381 aLehmann, Jean-Pierre,d1945-932939  2ddccBB  c17390d17362  00102ddc40708BaccahaMAINbMAINc1STd2013-03-21epurchasel0o330.951 HAFp000028593r2025-07-15 00:00:00yBB  00102ddc40708BaccahaMAINbMAINc1STd2013-03-21epurchasel1o330.951 HAFp000028594r2025-07-15 00:00:00s2014-05-04yBB
