Fukuyama a former . State department planner was interviewed recently at the Washington office of the Rand corp., a private research organization where he is an analyst. Quot it is probably the Case that we done to really need japanese Atid German troops Halfway around the world but there a got to lie some role for those countries in upholding International order he said. A Germany and Japan sending their armed forces to places people did no to want them was the cause of lot of trouble 50 years ago ,.

With the defeat of fascism in Imperial Japan Western capitalism and Democrat by a were adapted and transformed by the japanese in such a Way As to be scarcely recognizable a he said. But the fact that they were a so successfully grafted onto uniquely japanese traditions and institutions guarantees their survival a he continued. He said Japan made an important historical contribution Quot by following in the footsteps of the United slates to create a truly Universal consumer culture that has become both a Symbol and underpinning of the Universal homogeneous state.,.a desire for Access to the consumer culture created in Large measure by Japan has played a crucial role in fostering the spread of economic liberalism throughout Asia and hence in promoting political liberalism democracy in the future he recently told the Senate foreign relations committee a refugees and immigration seem to be. More typical of the kind of National Security problem that will dominate our thinking rather than the  a j a movements from poor and unstable countries to Rich and secure ones. A Wall increase rather than decrease a he said because a no just principles prevents people from living where they want. The refugee problem could create a time bombs for the future he added.
