ItemNo Preview AvailableWith eyes wide shut: Japan, Heisei militarization, and the Bush DoctrineTanter, R ; Gurtov, M ; Van Ness, P (RoutledgeCurzon, 2005)The effects and reception of the Bush Doctrine in Japan have to be seen in the light of a long drawn out and now quickening series of domestic legal, political, legislative, and equipment and force-structure changes in Japanese security policy. The Bush Doctrine has been welcomed for the opportunities it affords to accelerate already existing planning preferences for military expansion and the re-constitution of the Japanese state in a "normal" form-a pattern of "Heisei militarization." Heisei militarization is compatible with both a nuclear and nonnuclear Japan. Both options are consistent with the "normality" that Japanese governments are intent on achieving. Existing Japanese latent nuclear weapons proliferation capacity has been supplemented by both a weakening of domestic cultural and institutional restraints and dramatic changes in the external environment, including security threats from North Korea and an apparent US drift toward acceptance of Japanese nuclear weapons. This raises the possibility of a nuclear-armed Japan within the US alliance, as well as beyond it.
