SUMMARY:Takako Hikotani (Columbia)\, Yusaku Horiuchi (Dartmouth)\, Atsushi Tago (Waseda)\, “U.S. Military Should Not Be in My Backyard: A Case of Okinawa”
DESCRIPTION:U.S. EDT: December 3 (Thu)\, 8 – 9 pm \nJST: December 4 (Fri)\, 10 – 11 am \nNOTE: Registration required! Link. \nPaper can be found here. \nAbstract: In an article recently published in the American Political Science Review\, Allen et al. (2020) argue that citizens in U.S. allies are more likely to nurture favorable attitudes toward the U.S. government\, American people\, and American troops because they have inter-personal contact with Americans and receive economic benefits associated with the U.S. military presence. However\, their analysis of surveys fielded in fourteen U.S. allies disregards the geographical concentration of U.S. military facilities within the host countries. To examine this relevance of geography\, we focus on Okinawa\, a small Japanese prefecture constituting only 0.6% of Japan’s surface land but hosting 70% of U.S. military facilities within Japan. Based on a national sample and a targeted sample from Okinawa\, we replicate their survey. We also administer an original conjoint experiment on Japanese citizens’ attitudes toward the Osprey deployment in Japan. The results show strong Not-In-My-Backyard (NIMBY) sentiment among Japanese people\, particularly among Okinawans\, toward the military presence\, regardless of their contact with Americans and economic benefits. Our study sheds light on the importance of local foreign public opinion for foreign policy analysis and contributes to the debate on the U.S. military presence in the world. \nPresenters: Takako Hikotani (Columbia)\, Yusaku Horiuchi (Dartmouth)\, Atsushi Tago (Waseda). \nDiscussants: Yoshiaki Kubo (Harvard Program on U.S.-Japan Relations; University of the Ryukyus)\, Michael Tomz (Stanford). \nChair: Christina Davis (Harvard).

SUMMARY:Ayumi Teraoka (Princeton)\, “Third Party Coercion and Gray Zone Conflicts: Assessing U.S. Foreign Policy over the East China Sea\, 2008-2014”
DESCRIPTION:U.S. EDT: November 12 (Thu)\, 8 – 9 pm \nJST: November 13 (Fri)\, 10 – 11 am \nNOTE: Registration required! Link. \nPaper can be found here. \nAbstract: The United States engaged in dual deterrence over the East China Sea dispute from 2008-2014\, dissuading both China and Japan from taking escalatory behavior. Contrary to what dual deterrence theory predicts\, however\, this U.S. approach failed to deescalate the situation. By process-tracing and examining the consequences of U.S. intervention or lack thereof\, this article finds that dual deterrence in the gray zone conflict requires the third-party to act decisively and issue early threats and assurances against revisionist actions. It aims to contribute to scholarly debates on both dual deterrence and gray zone conflicts and offer policy implications. \nPresenter: Ayumi Teraoka (Princeton). \nDiscussants: Tim Crawford (Boston College)\, Mike Mochizuki (George Washington University). \nChair: Phillip Y. Lipscy (University of Toronto).
