      abstract = {"The passing of Emperor Shōwa marked the end of an era--an  era memorable in both war and peace. As is the custom, the  new emperor's reign was given a new name, in this case  "Heisei," but this did not mean a reset on the  international stage. The persistent diplomatic issues  remained, and, furthermore, new issues arose. Promoting  global peace and stability, preventing natural disasters,  relations with China, regional cooperation, Japan's role in  the international order are just some of the many  outstanding issues. How did Japan approach them and deal  with them? What was accomplished and what still needs to be  done? Given the issues' paramount importance for both Japan  and the world at large, this anthology brings together  influential essays published by five of Japan's leading  scholars during the period."--},
