Rezensionen

"The book is insightful for emphasizing how party politics and macroeconomic/monetary policies-two areas that many security-focused books overlook-are closely linked to bilateral interactions. ... The book's greatest strength is the way that it highlights Japan and South Korea's diverging strategies in facing the United States-China rivalry, and explaining this as one of the most serious sources of bilateral deadlock." (Seung Hyok Lee, Pacific Affairs, Vol. 89 (2), June, 2016)
