About this ebook

This book discusses the influence and impact of Shinzo Abe, Japan’s youngest and longest-serving Prime Minister in the post-Second World War, on international relations between India and Japan. The subject matter concentrates on Abe’s 2006-2007 and 2012-2020 regimes. Building on civilisation linkages, shared values, and mutual interest, Abe pegged the relationship with India as a strategic requirement for his vision for the Indo-Pacific region. Drawing linkages between Abe’s vision for Japan and India’s ambition at the world theatre, the contributing authors explore the various dimensions of this partnership. Critically appraising this bilateral relation, drawing on the convergence of India-Japan interest in the multilateral form, Abe’s impact on the media, and his display of soft power diplomacy, this book analyses the diverse spheres that have spun this partnership to a new orbit.
