Using recently declassified documents from Moscow, this article recounts Anastas Mikoyan's trip to Japan in the summer of 1961. The trip served as an inflection point in the commercial relationship between the Soviet Union and Japan—a relationship that by the end of the decade had become the most extensive between the Soviet Union and a country of the “free world.” The article indicates that narratives focusing on ideologies of great-power rivalry during the Cold War tend to miss the kinds of global ideological currents that shaped many states’ behavior after 1945. Mikoyan's discussions with political and business elites in Japan suggest that an ideology of economic growth increasingly underlay concepts of political governance on both sides and ultimately allowed for the kind of cooperation that characterized Soviet-Japanese relations.

冷战分裂治理中的经济增长：米高扬与日本的相遇，1961 年夏季

本文使用最近从莫斯科解密的文件，讲述了阿纳斯塔斯·米高扬 (Anastas Mikoyan) 于 1961 年夏天的日本之行。这次旅行是苏联和日本之间商业关系的转折点——这种关系在 10 年代末已成为苏联和“自由世界”国家之间的范围最广。文章指出，冷战期间以大国竞争意识形态为重点的叙述往往忽略了 1945 年后塑造许多国家行为的全球意识形态潮流。米高扬与日本政界和商界精英的讨论表明，经济意识形态增长日益成为双方政治治理概念的基础，并最终促成了苏日关系特有的那种合作。
