摘要

A"total settlement of post-war diplomacy" is Japan's guiding foreign policy proposed by the government of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, with different horizons and strategic relevance compared with earlier policies. It focuses on the conclusion of a peace treaty with Russia, historical and present issues of the Korean Peninsula, and the adjustment of Japan's China policy. Abe wishes to revise the "post-war arrangements" and reconstruct the regional order centered on Northeast Asia. This wish has not been fulfilled yet and faces many challenges. However, the policy orientation featuring historical revisionism deserves high attention.
