Abstract
- This study examines recent Japanese ambivalent attitudes toward the United States by analyzing an original survey I conducted. Specifically, this work focuses on the growing sentiments of anti-globalism among Japanese society and hypotheses that: 1) the more a Japanese citizen feel the income-status gap in the Japanese society, 2) the less satisfied with his/her current situation, and 3) the more he/she believes the global free market system worsens Japanese economic/ cultural situations, the citizen is more likely to have negative feeling toward the United States. Also, this work explores whether the above-mentioned factors may affect the Japanese view of other countries, such as China, Russia, and South Korea. Further, I test the hypotheses that personal cultural and social contacts ameliorate feelings toward the United States. Finally, this study investigates how the U.S. presidential images have impacts on Japanese citizens. ..PAT.-Unpublished Manuscript [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
