Question 6
Shinzo Abe, Japan’s prime minister, has started a process to reinterpret a critical part of the country’s constitution. The result of this reinterpretation is that it will allow the Japanese military to help friendly countries under attack, a development that has caused anxiety in East Asian countries that were once at the receiving end of Japan’s armed aggression. Not all reactions have been negative. The reinterpretation has been welcomed by Japan’s most important ally, US. The Japanese government’s move does not indicate it has given up on pacifism. Instead, it represents a pragmatic approach to changed circumstances in the region and shows Japan as a country prepared to take steps to secure its legitimate interests. Following World War II, Japan embraced a constitution which renounced war and possession of war potential. The country’s protection was secured under a US military umbrella. Despite these factors, Japan chose to set up a Self-Defence Force (SDF) to defend its home islands. Over time, the nature of SDF’s operations was calibrated to bring it in line with prevailing circumstances. For instance, in November 2001, SDF was dispatched to the Indian Ocean to provide support to US military action in Afghanistan. This move showed Japan’s willingness to adjust interpretation of its constitution to contemporary needs. The Abe cabinet’s latest step should be seen as a continuation of a series of small steps to adjust to prevailing circumstances. Over the last two decades, East Asian countries have had to adjust policies to two developments. In the mid-90s, North Korea tested missiles and began developing nuclear weapons materials. Simultaneously China rapidly modernized its military, followed by growing territorial disputes in the East China Sea. When seen in this context, Abe cabinet’s move is merely a manifestation of a sovereign nation’s inclination to secure its legitimate interests.
When did the Japanese government embrace a constitution which renounced war and possession of war potential?
