英文摘要 |
With the start of Donald Trump’s presidency, the conventional two-party politics approach is gravely insufficient and, perhaps, off the mark to comprehend the ongoing dramatic strife in American politics. The mid-term elections of 2018 have reinforced his “revolution” against the globalist establishment. This paper will first analyze his evolving superiority in the power struggle against the establishment on Capitol Hill, which is closely linked to the frequent and inordinate reshuffles of his cabinet members and other high-ranking officials and to his efforts for packing the Supreme Court. Second, this study will examine the inside-out effect of the Trump revolution, which involves challenging the longtime global hegemonic policy. Third, this work will conduct an overall analysis of Trump’s external policies, not only to major allies but also to potential hostile powers, and across major strategic regions. Finally, this paper will provide an in-depth look at the impacts of Trump’s anti-globalist policies on East Asian order, thereby identifying a necessary strategic prospect for Japan to develop its basic foreign and security policy line. |
