Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The center of the US-Japan security relationships during the Cold War period was to provide military bases to the US military and its management, in particular under the 1951 US-Japan Security Treaty. While military bases in the Japanese mainland (and Okinawa) were indispensable to US Cold War strategy in the Far East, they were one of the factors that might destabilize the bilateral relationships, since so-called "base problems" often intensified anti-American sentiment among the Japanese people. This research examined the process through which both the Japanese and the US governments reached agreement on the provision of US bases in Japan and its management, in order to balance between the America's strategic interests and daily lives of the local people around the facilities and areas that the US military used.
