There was a discussions about sources on the talk page of this article back in 2005. There are still no references. I can't see anything here that isn't covered by the Cold War and Japan articles. --HughCharlesParker (talk - contribs) 13:25, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

- note: some references have now been added, but though they document the fact that the US reversed its course, they don't document the existence of "reverse course" as an entity. I still don't see anything here that isn't covered by the Cold War and Japan articles. --HughCharlesParker (talk - contribs) 13:43, 22 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and expand, with a more usefully specific title. Though it wasn't immediate obvious how to search a phrase like this, the search string "foreign policy" Japan gives thousands of ghits, of which this academic book, this academic paper on the very subject, and this report from the US Dept of State. I've added them. The term is used in the references in such as way as to make it clear that it's a specific-- the US Dept State has it in quotation marks, even. I know, I too didn't expect it would be an exact term. WP leads to a world full of surprises. DGG (talk) 14:27, 22 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Fair enough. I am delightfully surprised :) --HughCharlesParker (talk - contribs) 15:26, 22 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
