Accessing previously unpublished archival materials, Japan in the World examines the life and diplomatic work of Shidehara Kijuro (1872-1951), situating Shidehara within the context of twentieth century statecraft and international politics. While it was an age of devastating total wars that took a vast toll of civilian lives, the politics and diplomatic history between 1899 and 1949 also saw the light of new developments in international and constitutional law to curtail state sovereignty and reach a peaceful order of international affairs. Japan in the World is an essential resource for understanding that nation's contributions to these world-changing developments.

Autorenporträt
Dr. Klaus Schlichtmann was born in Hamburg, Germany in 1944, before the end of World War II. As a teenager he developed an interest in philosophy, Asian culture, Buddhism, the arts, politics and peace. He left Germany at the age of 18 and soon after started his Yatra to India, travelling overland through Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Iran and Pakistan. From 1962 to 1964 he taught German at the Sanskrit University in Benares. In 1976, after several more years of private research in India, he returned to Germany, and a few years later enrolled in Kiel University to study Asian History, International Law and Political Science. In 1992 he obtained a scholarship to go to Japan to work on his doctoral dissertation about the Japanese diplomat and post-World War II Prime Minister Kijuro Shidehara (1872-1951) who is credited with having suggested the war-renouncing Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution to General Douglas MacArthur in January 1946. He has published books and numerous articles in German, English and Japanese. Dr. Schlichtmann has two sons and a daughter.
