How does Japan's historical pacifism and recent military buildup affect its relationship with both China and the West?

Japan's shift towards closer military ties with NATO is a direct response to perceived threats from China, including military exercises near Taiwan and an increasingly assertive foreign policy. This realignment reflects a broader geopolitical shift, with countries in the Asia-Pacific region seeking alliances and partnerships to counter China's growing influence and military capabilities. This is exemplified by the planned deployment of long-range missiles in Kyushu and the strengthening of defenses in Okinawa.

How does the interconnectedness of the global financial system contribute to the spread of deregulation, and what specific examples illustrate this?

Trump's weakening of U.S. financial guardrails creates a "race to the bottom" among nations, pressuring others to reduce regulations to stay competitive. This is evidenced by the UK's pursuit of "Brexit dividends" through lighter regulation and the EU's push for "simplification" in financial oversight. The interconnectedness of the global financial system ensures that U.S. deregulation has worldwide ramifications.

How might increased defense spending in France impact economic growth and employment, and what challenges could arise?

The "ReArme Europe" plan signifies a shift toward European strategic autonomy in defense, spurred by geopolitical instability and a perceived weakening of US commitment to European security. This increased investment in French defense capabilities, particularly in high-tech systems and space technology, aims to reduce dependence on external actors while fostering economic growth. France's established defense industry and expertise in areas like 'systems of systems' are central to this strategy.
