 | Explaining Congressional Votes on Recent Trade Bills by Marcus Noland, Takatoshi Ito
The American & Japanese economies have undergone dramatic change during the 1990s. A decade ago, many Americans & most Japanese believed that Japan was becoming the world's dominant economy & that the United States was in deep trouble. Those perceptions & much of the realities underlying them have been almost totally reversed. In addition, economic conflict between the United States & Japan attained even greater prominence after the political & military concerns of the Cold War disappeared in the early 1990s. The Clinton administration has increased the pressure on Japan to stimulate economic growth, adopt structural reforms & open its markets despite the country's political & economic difficulties. This combination of factors, coming in the context of the change in economic fortunes of the two countries, has made it difficult for the United States & Japan to establish effective relationships on the whole range of economic issues. The Institute's 1993 bestseller, Reconcilable Differences: United States-Japan Economic Conflict, by Bergsten and Noland, provided much of the intellectual foundation for the Clinton administration's framework talks with Japan. But lessons from these talks & the sharp shift in the countries' economic positions, call for a complete rethinking of the future of that relationship. In this new study, Bergsten & Noland, along with top Japanese economist Ito, take a hard look at substantive, tactical & public dimensions of the relationship. What has the United States achieved quantitatively (in terms of economic & trade expansion), qualitatively (vis-a-vis Japan's structural rigidities d market impediments) & politically (in terms of reinforcing or detracting from the forces for liberalization & reform in Japan)? What were the costs, especially in terms of the overall relationship? Could some of them have been avoided? In the end, were they worth it? And, most importantly, what do the new global positions of the United States & Japan imply AUTHOR: Marcus Noland, Takatoshi Ito

 | The Summer of My Greek Taverna by Lloyd James, Tom Stone
Tom Stone succumbed to the lure of running a small restaurant on the island of Patmos--a mad venture that paid off not in the ways he hoped (money, the good life), but in other, more subtle ones: many strong friendships, an enriched relationship with his wife, and enduring memories of the beautiful landscape.
