- Underwriting the Alliance
Underwriting the Alliance is an annotated collection of the key bilateral treaties, agreements, and policy documents that provide the structure of the U.S.-Japan Alliance. It is designed to be an essential reference for practitioners, but it will also be useful to international relations scholars, policy researchers, and students of the Alliance. This volume includes: – The 1960 Treaty of Mutual Security and Cooperation and 1951 U.S.-Japan Security Treaty – All three iterations of the Guidelines for U.S.-Japan Defense Cooperation (1978, 1997, and 2015) – All the U.S.-Japan “2+2” joint statements since 2011 – The 1996 Final Report of the Special Action Committee on Okinawa – The 2016 Special Measures (Cost-sharing) Agreement …and much more! This volume was produced by the Yokosuka Council on Asia-Pacific Studies (YCAPS), a non-profit organization dedicated promoting the study of strategic, diplomatic, and legal issues affecting the Asia-Pacific Region within the U.S. military and communities hosting U.S. military forces.
