Abstract:
|
For decades, the Japanese government has focused to an extraordinary degree on the yen-dollar exchange rate as a means of stabilizing its economic environment. Since the Asian Financial Crisis of 1997-98, however, the government of Japan has increasingly shifted its attention to stabilizing exchange rates and financial relations regionally, among the ASEAN+3. This paper addresses the question of why, considering three competing hypotheses: domestic political economy, strategic realist, and regional identity. Its preliminary finding is that neither domestic political economy nor regional identity explain the shift as well as strategic realist considerations. |

| “Japan’s Regional Turn to Stabilize the Yen” William W. Grimes1 The regional economic architecture of East Asia is changing rapidly. Until recently East Asia was notable for its lack of formal institutions to support economic integration even as de facto integration among private-sector actors was moving forward.
