Focusing on the territorial disputes affecting Japan's relations with Russia, South Korea, and China, the book combines empirical research with comparative analysis to explore Cold War and post-Cold War border issues. It specifically addresses key disputes such as the Northern Territories/South Kurils, Takeshima/Dokto, and Senkaku/Diaoyu. The author offers practical solutions to disentangle these disputes from historical arguments, advocating for resolutions based on mutual benefit, while also providing a framework applicable to other global territorial conflicts.
