Georgetown Security Studies Program

This week, SSP had the chance to sit down with author Geoffrey Gresh, non-resident Senior Fellow with the University of South Florida, to discuss his new book "Leaning Seaward: Japan as a Maritime Great Power." Gresh spoke in his personal capacity about his book.

Gresh shared his examination of Japan as a comprehensive maritime power in the twenty-first century and considered what that status means in an age of great power competition. Students engaged in discussion on Japan’s maritime capabilities and influence across economic, industrial, and security sectors throughout the Indo-Pacific.

Thanks to everyone who participated, and we hope to see you at the next CSS Speaker Series!
