There are two principles, first one is \u201cExclusively defense\u201d, which is from the experience of WW\u2161 and based on our national Constitution. Second is \u201cDefense capability\u201d, Japanese Self Defense Forces doesn\u2019t allow to have any capability of attacking other countries or conducting any war or attack, and should have basic defense capability without attack.<br \/>\nB)Japan-US Security structure\u2026US nuclear capability is useful for security of not only Japan, also North-east Asia and South-east Asia. US presents in Japan is important.<br \/>\nC)There\u2019re four parts of commitment to international community. Firstly Bilateral Diplomacy with neighboring countries. It\u2019s important to have smooth relationship and keeping good atmosphere. Secondly Multilateral Dialog. In order to maintain security environment, Japan should establish or maintain multilateral dialog. Some people say that the ARF (ASEAN Regional Forum) still is a talk show, but the members are considering step up seriously. For example, expanding cooperation for counter terrorism or piracy. Thirdly, Arms Control of Non-governmental organization. Japan participates in treaty conference held in the US. Mr. Okada (Foreign ministry) is trying to promote nuclear disarmament and make the world free from the nuclear weapons. Fourthly Contribution to International Peace building. It is necessary since now in a global era, if something happen in other countries, maybe it will effect upon Japan.<\/p>\n<p>2.Japan Policy on Peace building<br \/>\nA)What is Peace building<br \/>\nPeacebuilding = Consolidation of Peace + Nation building<br \/>\n There are three factors in Consolidation of Peace; promotion of peace process, humanitarian and reconstruction assistance (recovery of people\u2019s peaceful life), security and stability.<br \/>\n There are three parts of current Nation building. Firstly, establish the political structure (governance), because there are no effective government and parliament, reliable constitution and political structure in a lot of countries just after the conflict. Secondly establish the economic structure, because they need to establish market system and create new jobs.  Thirdly, establish the social structure, because people have to fight against hostility and discrimination for maintain peace.<br \/>\nB)Three pillars of Japan\u2019s peacebuilding<br \/>\n\u2460On the ground: contribution to UN PKO (Peace Keeping Operation) and multilateral forces as the international peace cooperation. Expand the priority issues in the ODA charter, to improve various means and systems, to implement flexibly and efficiency<br \/>\nJapanese government sent Self Defense Forces to Haiti, Golan, Nepal, Sudan as PKO, and sent it to the Somalian coast and Eden as antipiracy operation. Japanese civilians also work for peacebuilding mission, but the number is very small. Japan is the second largest financial contributor to the UN\u2019s peace keeping operation but a fifty-first contributor to sending people for peace keeping operation.<br \/>\nBy the ODA (Official Development Assistant), Japan is putting money into Humanitarian and reconstruction assistance, Assistance in security sector (DDR, DIAG, police, collection of small arms and light weapons, land mine removal, etc). Japanese government also sends technical experts by using ODA.<br \/>\nJapanese government starts Non-ODA which supports peacekeeping operation since ODA Charter doesn\u2019t allow using ODA for area closely related with military activities.<br \/>\n\u2461Intellectual contribution: Human security respect for local ownership than traditional development. Japan is on the tenth time as the non-permanent member of UN Security Council, and the leading country for Timor-Leste. Japan is also the Chair of SC PKO working group from 2005-06, 2009-now. Japan leads the discussion about the gap between mission mandates and implementation and enriches the discussion on enhancement of cooperation.<br \/>\n\u2462Human resource development: HRD program in Asia for peacebuilding, delivering lectures in PKO training centers in Egypt, Ghana and Mali, and assistance to PKO centers in Africa and Malaysia.<br \/>\nHRD program was founded to make use of Asian experiences and expertise for pecebuilding around the world. They launched the \u201cSenior Specialist Course\u201d and the \u201cSeminar on peacebuilding\u201d, and set up database for peacebuilding human resources. <\/p>\n<p>3.United Nations Security Council Reform<br \/>\n The reason of Reform: SC is most important organ in the UN because it has the responsibility for international society. But the UN members have increased form 51 (1945) to 192 (2010). Expansion of its activities and necessity to cope with new threats need to increase confidence in the council and its effectiveness.<br \/>\n Expansion of permanent membership is to appropriately reflect the present international society, to assure commitment of members with necessary capabilities and will. SC Reform is a difficult but necessary task. Common understanding on necessity, but they have different backgrounds and interests, which reaches impasse. P5 countries want to maintain their existing interest, great rivalry especially between neighbors. For example, Japan wants to be permanent member but Korea strongly doesn\u2019t want Japan to be.<\/p>\n<p>\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a\uff0a<br \/>\n< \u2161. \u8cea\u7591\u5fdc\u7b54><\/p>\n<p>A: North-Korea launched missile to warship.<br \/>\nWhat measures should Japanese government take against North-Korea?<br \/>\n\u2192 Japanese government should confederate with South-Korea and the US. Japanese government is thinking any measures, sanctions. Japan is not a permanent member and the US is permanent member, so Japanese government should cooperate with them. Japan also should cooperate with any countries. SC is a most appropriate organ to deal with this problem. <\/p>\n<p>B : \u81ea\u6c11\u515a\u3068\u6c11\u4e3b\u515a\u3067\u5e73\u548c\u69cb\u7bc9\u306e\u653f\u7b56\u306b\u304a\u3044\u3066\u5927\u304d\u306a\u9055\u3044\u306f\u3042\u308a\u307e\u3059\u304b\u3002<br \/>\n\u5e73\u548c\u69cb\u7bc9\u3067\u8cc7\u91d1\u9762\u4ee5\u5916\u306e\u884c\u52d5\u3092\u3059\u308b\u306b\u3042\u305f\u3063\u3066\u61b2\u6cd5\u6539\u6b63\u304c\u5fc5\u8981\u3067\u306f\u306a\u3044\u3067\u3057\u3087\u3046\u304b\u3002<br \/>\n\u4e16\u754c\u306e\u554f\u984c\u3084\u5e73\u548c\u69cb\u7bc9\u306b\u95a2\u5fc3\u306e\u306a\u3044\u65e5\u672c\u4eba\u306b\u5bfe\u3057\u3066\u3069\u3046\u5553\u8499\u3057\u3066\u3044\u304f\u3079\u304d\u3067\u3057\u3087\u3046\u304b\u3002<br \/>\n\u2192 There are no major difference regarding peacebuilding, but there\u2019re some kinds of difference. For example, former government LDP decided to send Self-Defense Forces to Indian Ocean.<br \/>\nThere is a consensus with amendment article nine but it depends on the argument of Japanese people. I believe that even under the present article nine, Japan can contribute for peacebuiding. Important thing is the minds.<br \/>\n Political leaders have to make people know what\u2019s going on in the different parts of the world, and what Japanese governments are doing. <\/p>\n<p>Mr. Shigeki Takizaki<br \/>\n\u5916\u52d9\u7701\u5b89\u5168\u4fdd\u969c\u653f\u7b56\u8ab2\u3000\u517c\u56fd\u969b\u5e73\u548c\u5354\u529b\u5ba4<br \/>\n1985\u5e74 \u5916\u52d9\u7701\u5165\u7701\u3000 \u7c73\u56fd\u306b\u3066\u7814\u4fee\u3000 \u672c\u7701\u3001\u30d1\u30ad\u30b9\u30bf\u30f3\u3001\u82f1\u56fd\u52e4\u52d9<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-3631 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/archives\/3631\/attachment\/526'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/526-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/archives\/3631\/attachment\/52602'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/52602-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/archives\/3631\/attachment\/52603'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/52603-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/archives\/3631\/rimg2924'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/rimg2924-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/archives\/3631\/rimg2929'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/rimg2929-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/archives\/3631\/rimg2932'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/rimg2932-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/archives\/3631\/rimg2936'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/rimg2936-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/archives\/3631\/rimg2939'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/rimg2939-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mr. Shigeki Takizaki, Director of the National Security Division and the Office for International Peace Cooperation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs delivered a lecture on 26 May at Hosei University. He explained the exclusive defensive nature of Japanese defense forces and the role played by the Japan-US security structure. Japan`s commitment to the international community is carried out through bilateral diplomacy with the neighboring countries, multilateral security dialogues, arms control, disarmament, non-proliferation of nuclear weapons and contribution to international peacebuilding efforts. According to Mr. Takizaki, peacebuilding consisted of consolidation of peace and nation building. Japan`s initiatives in peacebuilding included participation in UN peacekeeping operations and multilateral forces, expansion of ODA activities, intellectual contribution on human security, respect for local ownership, leadership at UN Security Council and Peacebuilding Commission, training of peacebuilders from Asia and Japan, and support to PKO centres in Africa and Malaysia. Mr. Takizaki referred to a special session held by the Security Council under the chairmanship of Foreign Minister Okada on 16 April to debate on how to strengthen the peacebuilding activities, by quoting what Foreign Minsiter Okada said, &#8220;Creating a long-lasting peace requires sustained cooperation between a post-conflict country and the international community&#8230;Japan will continue to participate actively in the efforts towards achieving sustainable peace in post-conflict countries.(Rena Kondo)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[58],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3631","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-global-governance2010"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3631","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3631"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3631\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3639,"href":"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3631\/revisions\/3639"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3631"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3631"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shasegawa.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3631"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
