ABSTRACT:
This event features two scholars who will present the cutting-edge of political science of postwar Japan. Chris Winkler will discuss the rise of a specific lineage of conservatism among intellectuals in postwar Japan. Sebastian Maslow sheds light on how North Korea became a way to create a discourse of state crisis that mandates the revision of Japan’s postwar security institutions. Comments by Ikeda Ryo, professor in political science and international relations.
