520			_aIn political terms, Japan still maintains a relatively low profile. Its economic success has provoked from its partners increasingly impatient demands that it accept broader international responsibility. Japan is no longer able to limit itself to merely adapting to the international environment; a more accentuated political - or military - role, however, remains controversial both within and outside the country. This paper analyses the domestic context of foreign policy-rnakinq and the interplay between the economic, political and security factors. Interwoven is an examination of Japan's complex relationships with the two superpowers, its Asian neighbours and the Europeans, and the paper concludes by suggesting likely foreign policy priorities for Japan as it approaches the 1990s.
