Opis

Over recent years, there has been increasing interest in the relationship between China and Japan, particularly as a way of understanding contemporary political, economic and security developments within the whole East Asia region. Caroline Rose presents a thorough, balanced and objective examination of both sides of the relationship. This will be of great interest to academics and policy-makers in the UK and US, as well as to professionals working in Chinese and Japanese communities.

Recenzje

'This short work follows on from Caroline Rose's more detailed 1998 study on the role of history in Sino-Japanese relations. She draws on a wide range of Chinese and Japanese material, supplemented by an impressive array of English- Language works, to show how recent history continues to bedevil the relationship between the two countries.' - Asian Affairs, July 2006
