本书研究1950年代美国外交政策如何影响日本进入外国市场，认为美国通过营造有利的国际环境，让日本在保持保护主义的同时扩大出口，从而助推了日本经济奇迹。
This book is a history of how American foreign policy during the 1950s affected Japan's access to foreign markets. It is not an economic history per se, but rather a political history highlighting the interaction between Cold War security issues and U.S. trade policy. Extensive archival evidence paints a clear picture of U.S. policy toward Japan after the end of the Occupation. Forsberg's main thesis is that the United States contributed to the “Japanese miracle” by fostering an international environment in which Japan could export while maintaining protectionist policies.
