I am grateful to its former director, Professor Thomas G. Hart, for his unfailing support. To pursue the research needed would not have been possible without the generous financial support of the Japan Foundation, the Lars Johan Hierta Founda tion, and the Foundation for the Study of Japanese Society. I would also like to thank Dr Katarina Brodin, who guided me through the intricacies of foreign-policy doctrine research, and Professor Glenn Hook and Professor Ian Nish, who read and commented upon a draft version and saved me from numerous errors. ix
