论日本对美国“亚太再平衡”的战略利用

On Japan's Strategic Utilization of the U.S. Asia-Pacific Re-balancing

美国实施"亚太再平衡"战略以来,不断加大对日本的利用力度。日本对此的反应,则经历了从民主党执政时期鸠山由纪夫内阁的"脱美"挫折、到菅直人内阁的顺应和政策回调、再到野田佳彦内阁开始跟进美国需求并试图在同盟框架下有所作为的调适过程。2012年底安倍晋三第二次上台执政后,日本进一步主动谋划、积极"用美"的意图彰显,将美国再平衡的对日需求作为实现军事崛起的战略工具加以运用,借美国重返之机推动了一系列军事安全领域的突破举措。日方如此连续的调适与利用,使其"国防正常化"和"军事大国化"取得了二战后最大的进展,也对中国及地区的安全环境产生着很大的影响。

Since the United States adopts the new Asia-Pacific Re-balancing Strategy, the White House considers Japan as an important tool to implement its goal. As for the response of Japan, the Japanese administration have made a series of adjustments which include the frustration of ＂de-link to the U.S.＂ policy of the Yukio Hatoyama Cabinet; the accepting attitude of the Naoto Cabinet and the Yoshihiko Noda Cabinet who started to follow the demand of the U.S. and tried to make a difference under the circumstance of the U.S.-Japan alliance. After Abe Shinzo came to power for the second time in 2012, Japan revealed its intention to take advantage of the U.S. Re-balancing Strategy as an important tool to achieve Japan＇ s political and military ambitions and to create its own strategic space, making a series of breakthroughs in the field of military security. The consecutive strategic adjustments of Japan accelerates its pace towards a total military rise, and has come more closer to its goal than any other time after World War II, having a negative impact on the security environment of China and the region.
