Opis

This text examines the process of trade policy making in Japan and takes the US/Japan trade talks of the mid 1980s as a focal case study. Four key areas are covered: pharmaceuticals; telecommunications; electronics; and forestry products. It should be of use to academics and policy makers alike by highlighting Japan's trade policy against the background of domestic imperatives.
