Japan Forum on International Relations
The Japan Forum on International Relations (JFIR) was established in 1987. In those days, though still in the midst of the Cold War, people already began to sense a premonition of gradual changes in international relations through such events as developments brought about by "perestroika" in the Soviet Union and the signing of an agreement for the complete abolition of INF (Intermediate-range Nuclear Forces) between the United States and the Soviet Union. The Forum was founded by a group of independent citizens from various circles of Japan who, promptly foreseeing the advent of a new era, wanted to make studies and recommendations about the course and role that Japan should undertake in the international community. The Forum has published 26 policy recommendations by its Policy Council and hosted a number of international conferences and symposia in various parts of the world. The Forum has also organized a number of study groups and project teams in order to elucidate the nature of frontier issues of the times.
