Miller examines the evolution of ideas about democracy during the Cold War by charting the development of the alliance between the United States and Japan from the postwar occupation into the 1960s. She argues that both countries were deeply concerned with sustaining a commitment to the idea of democracy in the aftermath of World War II. This allegiance to democracy as a rhetorical and ideological platform created new opportunities and constrained the choices of actors in each country and greatly influenced each country's policies regionally and globally. She shows that a "clash of visions" both inside Japan and the US and between diplomats and leaders on both sides of the alliance helped to sustain the commitment to democracy, rather than tearing it free. But, in doing so, many of the opportunities that democracy promised--both domestically and internationally--were lost.--cProvided by publisher8 aAAL 0aDemocracyzJapanxHistoryy20th century.961148 0aDemocracyzUnited StatesxHistoryy20th century.961183 0aJapanxForeign relationszUnited States.960563 0aJapanxForeign relationsy1945-1989.960931 0aUnited StatesxForeign relationszJapan.960562 0aUnited StatesxForeign relationsy1945-1989.1 aAyesha Abed LibrarycGeneral Stacks  2ddccBK  c48070d48070  00102ddc4070aBRACULbBRACULd2026-06-09eDonated by Embassy of Japan in Bangladesh, Read Japan Project 2025, The Tokyo Foundation, supported by The Nippon Foundation.l0o952.04 MILp3010045864r2026-06-09t1w2026-06-09yBK
