This thesis is concerned with the possibilities for
cooperation in the security of greater East Asia by the ROK
Navy and Japan's Maritime Self -Defense Force. It examines
the early histories of those navies, their traditions and
images, and the cultural antipathies and nuances which
affect aspects of cooperation.
External threats to the security of the region are
weighed, balanced against the political and economic foreign
policies of Japan and the ROK, and a strategic calculus
involving U.S. participation is carefully developed. The
ensuing impacts of cooperation on Japan, the ROK, and the
U.S. are set forth, with the likely limitations stemming
from internal political processes.
Finally, the realities of possible cooperation are
assessed, and some recommendations advanced for encouraging
and enhancing that cooperation.
