Japan Zoominar @ UC San Diego: "U.S.-Japan Relations in a Changing International Order"  with Phillip Lipscy
 
Wed, Jan. 8, 2025 9:00-10:00 am JST (Tue, Jan. 7, 2025 4:00-5:00 pm Pacific)
The United States and Japan have been key defenders of the rules-based international order since the end of World War II. However, the order is under significant stress as contestation escalates across the military, economic and institutional domains.

Join Phillip Lipscy and Ulrike Schaede as they discuss the challenges confronting the new leaders in the United States and Japan. How can the U.S.-Japan relationship anchor and strengthen the order against intensifying challenges? Can we expect major changes in the relationship and its role in the world?
