Research On Japan’s National Security Strategy Adjustment And Its Impact (2013-2023)

The stability and living environment of a country are closely related to national security.National security is not only related to the level and quality of the people,but also related to the independence and sovereign integrity of a country.Japan’s aggression during World War II had a profound impact on neighboring countries,and the changes and deployment of its national security strategy have been concerned by other countries.In 2012,Shinzo Abe was re-elected as Prime Minister of Japan.Japan’s national security strategy has taken on a new development direction,and Japan’s national security strategy has entered a new stage.This paper in 2013-2023 years Japan adjust the national security strategy to promote the realism as the main issue,to Abe twice after the Japanese government adjustment and the influence of the core research object,by comparing the decade after 2013 during the content of Japan’s national security strategy adjustment is different,thus to Japan in a series of actions in the national security strategy has a clear and rational understanding.The first chapter analyzes the background of Japan’s adjustment of its national security strategy after 2013.After the outbreak of the financial crisis in 2008,the strength comparison between China and the United States has changed,the competition between the two countries has increased,and the contradictions have gradually emerged.The United States deliberately relaxed the restrictions on Japan’s military because of strategic needs,and the rapid "right turn" of Japan’s domestic politics at home and abroad promoted the adjustment of Japan’s national security strategy.The second chapter describes the contents of Japan’s national security strategy adjustment.It focuses on the comparative analysis of the adjustment documents and contents of Japan’s national security strategy since Abe’s second administration,expounds the adjustment contents from three angles: multilateral relations,the US-Japan alliance,and independent defense,and expounds the reasons why Japan chose the corresponding countermeasures to adjust.The third chapter summarizes the characteristics of Japan’s national security strategy adjustment.As the international situation continues to change,Japan’s national security strategy continues to develop towards defensive and offensive,and has repeatedly listed China as a key target,with increasingly obvious pertinence to China.However,considering the reality of Japan,a strong economy that can replace China cannot be found in the short term.Therefore,Japan’s policy towards China in the adjustment of its national security strategy is not conducive to Japan’s national economic interests.There is a contradiction between economic interests and security interests in Japan’s national security strategy.The fourth chapter analyzes the impact of Japan’s national security strategy adjustment.Japan has continuously strengthened its defense autonomy,and its various trends in the military field and the deliberate relaxation of the United States have impacted the regional order after the World War II.Japan’s right-leaning glorification and denial of history and its continuous efforts to contain China in various fields have intensified the Sino-Japanese conflict.The fifth chapter judges the trend of Japan’s national security strategy.In the long run,Japan will continue to break through the restrictions of exclusive defense,increase its military budget,and introduce offensive weapons to achieve a complete transformation from "defense" to "attack".Faced with the rise of China and the decline of the strength of the United States,Japan will demand more forces to join the camp of controlling China on the basis of its alliance.However,in a comprehensive consideration,the adjustment of Japan’s national security strategy is subject to bilateral restrictions at home and abroad.At the same time,the effect of the adjustment of Japan’s national security strategy is also affected by the strong will of other countries.There are certain challenges in the specific implementation.In recent years,the competition between China and the United States has become increasingly fierce.The United States has an indulgent attitude towards Japan’s strengthening of its self-defence force.Japan has kept pace with the United States strategy in politics,and has been vigorously developing its military strength under the pretext of China,regional security and other factors,which has seriously violated the provisions of Article 9 of the Peace Constitution.Japan’s adjustment of its national security strategy is not only its pursuit of the United States strategy,but also its realization of military normalization,Seek the strategic layout of the interests of political powers.
