Manage episode 306723128 series 2873499
Chinese culture and philosophy have influenced Japan. The languages have an overlapping system of writing and there are fusions of ideas in many spheres. Politically however, the countries seem very far apart, especially given Japan`s determination to side with the United States in the great-power rivalry between America and China, which shapes international relations in Asia and beyond. Japan recently had an election, in which Prime Minister Fumio Kishida was victorious. In this podcast, Rory Green, Head of China and Asia Research TS Lombard, talks about Japan's approach towards China with Duncan Bartlett, a Research Associate at the SOAS China Centre and former BBC Tokyo Correspondent.
