In the face of strategic space development bottleneck of economic aid diplomacy and value diplomacy during the initial stage of second tenure,in the fall of 2013 Shinzo Abe adopted Itou Norihito’s proposal and raised the flag of "Active Pacifism". He declared to get the desire about promote Japan’s peaceful contribution and the "positive contribution to security forces" to the outside world, at the same time he stepped up the legislation and implementation of the national security strategy as the center of the foreign policy and defense policy. It is the national interest basis of active and peaceful policy that to promote Japan’s economic development and strengthen the peace and security of Japan. With the effective administrative means, Shinzo Abe strengthened the power of the prime minister further, achieve “one party dominance”,broke through the limitation of military system and cooperated the Asia Pacific rebalancing strategy of U.S. to outside. The essence of active Peace doctrine is to create a veritable political and military power, coordinate American Asia Pacific Strategy, balance the rapid rise China, guide regional and international system reform to develop toward the benefit direction of Japan and achieve the desire that Japan is a "normal powerful country" through the establishment of a new military system and safety system. "Active Pacifism" promote the peaceful contribution,but the fact is preparing for war. This deepens the political concerns of neighboring countries and intensifies the regional conflicts. This also makes the current implementation of the Japanese policy into a dilemma, resulting in deviate from between Japan’s short-term policy direction and long-term strategic objectives. The deteriorated regional security environment and the pursuit of Abe’s politics promote the long-term development tendency of "Active Pacifism",. "Active Pacifism" has been recognized by western countries after Shinzo Abe’s positive discourse, which has promoted the international status of Japan; The autonomy and regional dominance of Japan’s foreign policy are gradually strengthened, but it can not open Chinese, South Korea and North Korea’s diplomatic knot. With the spirit of the peace constitution is distorted, the future instability of Japan’s political is enhanced, the regional security situation is unbalanced, so it is more difficult to establish the effective mechanism of regional security communication.
