What explains Japan’s security behavior? As an economically powerful state without commensurate military capabilities, Japan has long puzzled theorists of international relations. To explain this puzzle, many scholars have put forth arguments focusing on Japanese domestic institutions and anti-militarist ideas. In contrast, I argue that Japan’s security ‘production’ is primarily driven by two key variables: the regional threat environment and the strength of security commitment from its ally and great power patron, the United States. These two factors vary and interact in ways that determine Japan’s level of security, which drives its security policy. These arguments are illustrated through a longitudinal analysis of Japan’s security behavior, comprised of four temporal ‘cases’ running from 1960 to the present day. 4 March 2016 9,746 Words (11,826 with Appendix and Works Cited) Nicholas Anderson is a Ph.D. student in the Department of Political Science at Yale University.

无政府主义威胁与霸权保证:战后日本的安全生产

如何解释日本的安全行为?作为一个经济实力强大但没有相应军事能力的国家,日本长期以来一直困扰着国际关系理论家。为了解释这个谜团,许多学者提出了围绕日本国内制度和反军国主义思想的论点。相比之下,我认为日本的安全“生产”主要由两个关键变量驱动:地区威胁环境及其盟友和大国支持者美国的安全承诺强度。这两个因素以决定日本安全水平的方式变化和相互作用,从而推动其安全政策。通过对日本安全行为的纵向分析来说明这些论点,包括从 1960 年至今的四个时间“案例”。2016 年 3 月 4 日 9,746 字 (11, 826 附有附录和引用的作品)尼古拉斯·安德森 (Nicholas Anderson) 是博士。耶鲁大学政治学系学生。他要向 Victor Cha、Alexandre Debs、Stephan Haggard、Yasuhiro Izumikawa、Barbra Kim、Akitoshi Miyashita、Nuno Monteiro、Haotian Qi、Frances Rosenbluth、Takuy​​a Sasaki、Akisato Suzuki 和三位匿名审稿人深表感谢对本文早期草稿的建设性意见。本文还从耶鲁大学 IR 学生研讨会、ISSS-ISAC 2013、ISA-Northeast 2013 和 ISA 2014 的演讲中受益匪浅。这项研究得到了加拿大社会科学和人文研究委员会的支持。他要向 Victor Cha、Alexandre Debs、Stephan Haggard、Yasuhiro Izumikawa、Barbra Kim、Akitoshi Miyashita、Nuno Monteiro、Haotian Qi、Frances Rosenbluth、Takuy​​a Sasaki、Akisato Suzuki 和三位匿名审稿人深表感谢对本文早期草稿的建设性意见。本文还从耶鲁大学 IR 学生研讨会、ISSS-ISAC 2013、ISA-Northeast 2013 和 ISA 2014 的演讲中受益匪浅。这项研究得到了加拿大社会科学和人文研究委员会的支持。他要向 Victor Cha、Alexandre Debs、Stephan Haggard、Yasuhiro Izumikawa、Barbra Kim、Akitoshi Miyashita、Nuno Monteiro、Haotian Qi、Frances Rosenbluth、Takuy​​a Sasaki、Akisato Suzuki 和三位匿名审稿人深表感谢,感谢他们的洞察力和洞察力。对本文早期草稿的建设性意见。本文还从耶鲁大学 IR 学生研讨会、ISSS-ISAC 2013、ISA-Northeast 2013 和 ISA 2014 的演讲中受益匪浅。这项研究得到了加拿大社会科学和人文研究委员会的支持。以及三位匿名审稿人对本文早期草稿的深刻见解和建设性评论。本文还从耶鲁大学 IR 学生研讨会、ISSS-ISAC 2013、ISA-Northeast 2013 和 ISA 2014 的演讲中受益匪浅。这项研究得到了加拿大社会科学和人文研究委员会的支持。以及三位匿名审稿人对本文早期草稿的深刻见解和建设性评论。本文还从耶鲁大学 IR 学生研讨会、ISSS-ISAC 2013、ISA-Northeast 2013 和 ISA 2014 的演讲中受益匪浅。这项研究得到了加拿大社会科学和人文研究委员会的支持。
