THE ROLE OF JAPAN IN THE EAST ASIAN CENTER OF THE WORLD ECONOMY

Abstract

. The article analyzes the role of Japan in the East Asian center of the world economy. Japan is taking a range of issues, particularly in the economic sphere, that include the changing structure of the domestic and global economy, the rise of protectionism, and trade conflicts. The RCEP Agreement would not only further promote trade, and investment in the AsiaPacific region, where there has been remarkable growth, but it would also further strengthen relations with the countries in this region through building a new economic order, and thus has substantial strategic significance for sharing prosperity.
