Telecommunications Trade Friction

Chapter 10 in Economic, Industrial and Managerial Coordination between Japan and the USA, 1992, pp 252-273 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In recent years, due to the trade imbalance, friction has been steadily growing between the USA and Japan. While some point to macroeconomic factors as the cause of this imbalance, many in Congress, and others from the American business community, blame unfair trade practices by their Japanese competitors. In each country negative popular sentiment toward the other is increasing, as nationalistic pressures on both sides become stronger. Yet, historically speaking, there is no precedent for the current US—Japan conflict, as Japan has always remained in the orbit of the Western world where international relations are concerned. The greatest challenge for the leaders of both countries is to combine their strengths in economic terms and in the pursuit of democratic values.
