This book is the first critical biography to chart Masayoshi Ohiras life and work, with a focus on his political philosophy, and how he sought to create a new order in the Asia-Pacific region, framing a plan for solidarity across the Pacific Rim. If a statesman is a politician who has made diplomacy their life's work, then Ohira can be regarded as the first Japanese statesman of the modern era. While this ambition remained unfulfilled, Ohira's involvement in foreign policy was long and intensiveand highly influentialon the region. One of only two postwar prime ministers to have served as foreign minister for two terms, he attempted to balance the pursuit of a new order in the Pacific Rim with Asian diplomacy and focused on cooperation with the USA without becoming overly reliant on it. With the new availability of original documents decades after his death, this book has become possible, enabling the author to systematically follow and record Ohira's diplomatic vision. Combining history, political philosophy, political science, and international relations, this book is of appeal to history scholars and students of Japan, as well as of the foreign relations of countries such as the USA, China, and Korea. 001446273 546__ $$aTranslated from Japanese. 001446273 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed May 9, 2022). 001446273 60010 $$aŌhira, Masayoshi,$$d1910-1980. 001446273 650_0 $$aPrime ministers$$zJapan$$vBiography. 001446273 651_0 $$aJapan$$xPolitics and government$$y1945-1989. 001446273 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01919896 001446273 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001446273 7001_ $$aLeonard, Graham B.,$$eeditor. 001446273 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9811919011$$z9789811919015$$w(OCoLC)1302741907 001446273 852__ $$bebk 001446273 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-19-1902-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001446273 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1446273$$pGLOBAL_SET 001446273 980__ $$aBIB 001446273 980__ $$aEBOOK 001446273 982__ $$aEbook 001446273 983__ $$aOnline 001446273 994__ $$a92$$bISE
