This text reviews the existing literature on Japanese foreign aid, then tests its own argument against five case studies. It concludes that Japan's consistent sway under US opinion reflects an act of will on Japan's part, rather than a lack of coherent policy stemming from bureaucratic politics.
Why does the Japanese government often alter its course of action under pressure from the United States, even when doing so apparently undermines Japan''s own interests? In Limits to Power, Akitoshi Miyashita employs five case studies to chart an answer to this question. His findings challenge current arguments that Japan has successfully distanced itself from "reactive" politics.
