In the first episode of Japan Memo season 3, Yuka Koshino, Mariko Togashi and Robert Ward host Professor Kanehara Nobukatsu, Professor at the Faculty of Law at Doshisha University, senior advisor at The Asia Group in Washington DC, and former Assistant Chief Cabinet Secretary to Prime Minister Abe Shinzo from 2012 to 2019.
Yuka, Mariko, Robert and Kanehara-sensei unpack Japan’s three historic new national-security documents, offer their insights on the significance and details of these documents, analyse the impacts of the ensuing shift in Japanese security and defence policy, and delve into the regional and international perspectives of the three new strategies.

- The trajectory of Japan’s civil-military divide
- How to effectively integrate economic security into a broader national defence strategy
- Perspectives from strategic competitors, allies and like-minded countries

- ‘国家安全保障戦略’ (‘National Security Strategy of Japan’ 2022)
