Items related to Japan and Africa: Big Business and Diplomacy
This study analyzes Japan's "dual policy" towards Africa: an often surreptitious "White Africa" policy that is very supportive of South Africa - despite public pronouncements to the contrary - and a separate "Black Africa" policy. In particular, the author demonstrates how, since the 1950s, government, business interests and the ruling Liberal Democratic Party have co-operated in formulating and implementing these policies. It deals also with the "honorary white" status afforded Japanese in South Africa, Japanese racism and anti-racism, Japan's foreign policy and the banking, industrial and trading interests of Japanese multi-national corporations in Africa.

Book Description Condition: very good. London : C Hurst & Co Publishers Ltd, 1997. Hardcover. 389 pp. - Sets out Japan's foreign policy objectives in the developing world. The author discusses the historical dimensions of Japan's relationship with Africa, and elucidates the constellation of political, economic and bureaucratic participators in the formulation of Japanese foreign policy. By the early 1990s Japan had replaced the U.S. as the world's largest donor of Official Development Assistance, and Japan is also major subscriber to World Bank Loans. Thus a clear understanding of Japanese policy objectives in the developing world is extremely important, so all the more so given its recent efforts to enhance the profile of its relationship with Africa. Characteristically, these efforts are carried on in a way that avoids rather than seeks publicity. Jun Morikawa's Japan And Africa: Big Business And Diplomacy elucidates the constellation of political, economic, and bureaucratic participators in the formulation of Japanese foreign policy. Japan And America illustrates clearly how Japan develops its policies, and how it uses corporations as an arm of government in its relations with the rest of the world -- including the United States. Morkiawa's informative and accessible narrative is supplemented by extensive documentation and statistics. English text. Condition very good. Library stamps. Condition : very good copy.
