内容説明
During the 20th century, the most compelling and contradictory features of American design were its classlessness and its appeal to status and desire. This text presents the story of how design evolved as a profession and as a leisure activity, reflecting the national traditions of self-improvement and self-expression. It demonstrates how design in the affluent culture of North America is as much about personalization of the material world as it is about the performance and appearance of manufactured goods.

内容説明
After decades of solely relying on the United States for its national security needs, over the last decade, Japan has begun to actively develop and deepen its security ties with a growing number of countries and actors in the Asia-Pacific region and Europe, a development that has further intensified under the Shinzo Abe administration. This is the first book that provides a comprehensive analysis of the motives and objectives from both the Japanese and the partner-countries' perspectives, and asks what this might mean for the security architecture in the Asia-Pacific region, and what lessons can be learned for security cooperation more broadly.
This book is for those interested in Japan's security policy beyond the US-Japan security alliance, and non-US centred bilateral and multilateral security cooperation. It is an ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate level courses on regional security cooperation and strategic partnerships, and Japanese foreign and security policy. -- .
