Description
This volume, stemming from the Asan Institute for Policy Studies, observes that for Japan to 'rise again' would mean recovery not only from the triple disaster-the March, 2011 earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear meltdown-but from 20-plus years of economic stagnation, political fumbling, and deterioration in Japan's regional and global influence.
