Is Japan Back? Security Legislation and Military Mandate under Abe

Description
Japan's new security legislation, enacted on September 30, 2015 amid fierce debate over its constitutionality, is designed to enable a 'seamless response' to any security situation that may arise. While public debate has been fixated on the constitutionality of collective self-defence, the security legislation enacted in its final form is so heavily constrained that its effective use by the Self-Defence Force (SDF) in a crisis situation remains difficult. This seminar reviews the historical background leading to the adoption of the new security legislation and its contents, which provides the wider context for assessing what the SDF can or cannot do in the event of an emergency that threatens the security of East Asia.
