Handling History
By WANG YANJUAN & CHENWEN

What action may the administration of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe take in dealing with the history issue?

Samuels: I think the Abe administration will be more pragmatic and they'll back down from the more aggressively revisionist position. They may not believe it's correct in their view of history but they are going to step back because there is too much at stake: the relationship with China and with the United States. These are very important relationships. I think the ideology is going to be suppressed. Things have improved since Abe's visit to Beijing and will continue to improve.
