Abstract:

The visit of Secretary of State George Shultz to Japan, so soon after the journey of Prime Minister Nakasone to Washington, ensures that the contentious issues in U.S.-Japanese relations will continue to receive high-level and priority attention. Attention itself, however, is not sufficient. What must come out of this intense review of U.S.-Japanese relations is firm agreement on the specific steps to be taken to restore the alliance between these two nations to full vitality.
