abstract:

In the mid-1960s, the Japanese government brought a technology focus to its relations with the United States, aiming to build respect for Japan as an equal partner in world affairs, as well as a source of high-quality industrial products. Efforts to replace its identity as an impoverished and defeated enemy with that of Cold War ally, trade partner, and industrial competitor were constrained by Americans' preconceptions and the particular functions of technology in international relations. The U.S. government engaged in its own technopolitics, mobilizing American technical knowledge to push Japanese policy in desired directions. This article highlights the difficulty of using technology as a tool of diplomacy by examining its role in U.S.-Japanese relations through a popular cultural initiative and top-level diplomatic discussions.

冷战外交技术:改变战后日本

摘要:

1960年代中期,日本政府将技术重点放在了与美国的关系上,旨在树立对日本在世界事务中的平等伙伴以及高质量工业产品来源的尊重。用美国人的先入之见和技术在国际关系中的特殊作用,限制了其以冷战盟友,贸易伙伴和工业竞争者的身份来取代其作为贫穷和失败的敌人的身份的努力。美国政府从事自己的技术政治活动,动员美国的技术知识将日本的政策推向理想的方向。本文通过通过流行的文化倡议和高层外交讨论来考察技术在美日关系中的作用,从而突出说明了将技术用作外交工具的困难。
