The author, a leading authority on Japanese-Russian diplomatic history, was trained at the Russian Institute of Columbia University. This volume contributes to our understanding of not only the intricacies of bilateral relations between Moscow and Tokyo, but, more generally, of Russia's and Japan's modes of foreign policy formation. The author also discusses the U.S. factor, which helped make Russia and Japan distant neighbors, and the threat from China, which might help these countries come closer in the near future. It would be hardly possible to discuss the future prospects of Northeast Asia without having first read this book. 1853-2005 69856 Russland Kurilen 69857 Japan Ealey, Mark trl Translator 69854 Volltext https://doi.org/10.11126/stanford/9780804758352.001.0001 EB z 74747 74747 0 0 z 0 0 DHIM DHIM ONRES 2026-10-21 26-e00875 E-26-e00874 77683 2026-10-21 14:20:00 2026-10-21 EB
