| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Focusing not only on the bilateral relations between Japan and the United States but on Japan's broad response to the trilateral power politics among the United States, the Soviet Union and China, this project proposes a new framework to understand the foreign policy lines of the "Conservative Mainstream" and the "Anti-Yoshida" groups in Japanese political leaders. Namely, the "Conservative Mainstream" sought the "Japan-US-China" partnership against the Soviet Union, attaching importance on the "pro-China, anti-Soviet" tradition of Japanese diplomacy, whereas the "Anti-Yoshida" groups pursued the goal of the "Japan-US-China-USSR," accepting the international order centered by Washington and Moscow and attempting to approach both China and the Soviet Union. These two respective goals continued for a long time, from the prewar period through the entire Cold War era. Depending on which faction was ruling, there was a clear difference in Japan's diplomacy toward China and the Soviet Union.
