Japan’s defeat in World War II, the loss of military power, and the ban on independent military actions after that era, made this country a vulnerable state in terms of security. Although in the years after the Second World War, the US security umbrella has been able to protect Japan from the Cold War crisis and beyond, the feeling of insecurity in recent years has created strategic dynamics in the country's macro strategies; and in recent years, we are witnessing that Japan, as a middle power, has moved towards increasing its military capabilities and has shifted its passive foreign policies. This feeling of insecurity arose from the transformation of the security environment in East Asia, which has changed the attitude of Japan’s security decision-makers and put this country on the path of responding to these threats and challenges. The question that comes up in this context is that what environmental variables have made Japan aware of these threats and what has been Japan's response to these threats? Given the theoretical framework of Stephen Walt, the hypothesis of the research is based on the belief that changes in China and North Korea's actions have caused Japan to sense and perceive the threats related to its Security and pushed this country to balance these threats through a deeper coalition with the United States.
