Abstract:

Since the Sino-Japan relations are characterized by coexistence of security trust deficit and close interdependency, Shinzo Abe Cabinet has carried out “Hedging” policy towards China, that is, Abe Cabinet s diplomatic policy to China presents a “hedging” mode composed of “check and balance” and “cooperation”. The goals of the policy are to contain China s “security” threats to Japan, and to avoid further deteriorating of mutual relations so as to protect Tokyo s interests. The “check and balance” dimension mainly targets at domestic and oversea domains as well as the institutional aspect. These measures include but not limit to enlarging investment on defense, strengthening Tokyo-Washington alliance and upgrading security cooperation with China s neighboring countries, and meanwhile hyping that “China is a threat” in the international community. The “cooperation” dimension means economic pragmatism and controllable exchanges, that is, Japan enhances its economic cooperation while improving communications via multi dialogue channels with China in this respect.

Key words: “hedging&rdquo, policy, Shinzo Abe cabinet, Japan s policy towards China, “check and balance”, “cooperation”
