Klappentext
Offering an assessment of Shinzo Abe's complex legacy as Japan's longest-serving prime minister, this book shows that beyond the acclaim for "Abenomics" and his diplomatic initiatives lies a more nuanced reality that continues to shape Japan's trajectory years.
The book focuses on Abe's security policy, his economic vision which is increasingly viewed as "welfare for the wealthy" at home, his diplomatic initiatives as well as "Abenesia" for regional reconciliation and Japan's international standing and the gap between "womenomics" rhetoric and Japan's gender equality rankings. The book further explores how opposition from Emperor Akihito and the Unification Church controversy affected Abe's agenda, while examining how his successors navigate his complex legacy.
Shinzo Abe and His Legacieswill appeal to students, scholars, and general readers interested in contemporary Japan and Asian geopolitics.
