Abstract

The three articles that follow use the insights of historical institutionalism to analyze the complex nature of the 1952 San Francisco Peace Treaty and examine its legacy for East Asian regional security. The perceived and actual imbalance between the capacity of regional security arrangements and the growing challenges of new threats has prompted calls for a new “San Francisco system.” Identifying the historical roots that have hampered the adaptive transformation of the San Francisco system is a sensible basis for research in search of alternatives, as the three articles on the subject richly and persuasively illustrate.
