• Armitage-NYE Report
  ARMITAGE-NYE REPORT Released October 2000, this much-discussed report nicknamed the "Armitage-Nye Report," is considered a blueprint for Bush Administration Asia policy. The focus is on reinvigorating the US-Japan relationship and emphasizing the role of Japan in US Asia policy. Mr. Armitage has been nominated to be Deputy Secretary of State.
  
  Although the report is publicized as bi-partisan (Nye), it demonstrates that there is a surprising consistency of policy toward Japan among both Democrats and Republicans. It was one of many "vanity" publications on Japan that appeared before the elections to provide names of Japan experts to the candidates. Over 16 report participants appear on the front page of the report. These include Richard Armitage, Paul Wolfowitz, Torkel Patterson and James Kelly who are all going into the Bush Administration. Most of the work was done at Mr. Armitage's consulting firm, Armitage Associates.
  
  The real name of the report is: INSS Special Report, The United States and Japan: Advancing Toward A Mature Partnership. It is a 7-page pamphlet.
  
  You can receive an original copy of The Report through the Japan Information Access Project in Washington, DC. It is free to our members and $5 for postage and handling to nonmembers. Email your request to us at access@jiaponline.org.
