Japan's Relations with Muslim Asia, 1st ed. 2020
Langue : Anglais
Auteur : Barber B. Bryan
This book offers a useful and extensive account of Japan?s past discoveries and present interactions with Muslim states and societies across Asia. Bearing in mind the U.S.-led global meta-narrative of Islam spoken in tandem with security and threats, this book examines how this reconciles with Japan?s self-proclaimed ?values-based? approach to diplomacy across Asia in the twenty-first century. The author considers Japan?s historic conceptualization and learning of Islam, and its acute needs for access to markets and energy from Muslim-majority states in Asia. He also argues that Japan securitizes Islam in a manner distinct from Western, Russian, or Chinese securitization today, but that Japan promotes itself as a model for human security and development across an Asia inclusive of Muslim states. Japan?s approach to Islam and Muslim societies today offers much from which other great powers can learn.
