Sasakawa USA’s US-Japan Resource Library

Sasakawa USA’s research fellows have curated a list of documents that are key to the U.S.-Japan relationship, from its inception to today. These treaties, articles, laws and statements have helped build and shape the tenor of that relationship. We hope this U.S.-Japan Resource Library will help others build upon their knowledge of bilateral relations between the U.S. and Japan.
