The University of Michigan and Japan's Auto Industry: The Historic USJAC Conferences, 1981-1989

In 1981, the U-M Center for Japanese Studies launched the U.S.-Japan Automotive Conference (USJAC). Held annually until 1989, the USJAC facilitated reasoned dialogue between U.S. and Japanese business, political, and labor leaders against a backdrop of increasingly heated competition between the two countries’ auto industries. These conferences played a central role in fostering constructive dialogue between automakers and policymakers on opposing sides of the U.S.-Japan trade wars of the 1980s. As part of the U-M Center for Japanese Studies' 70th anniversary, this site gathers the published conference proceedings from each conference, from the inaugural conference in 1981 until the last conference hosted of 1989, as well as materials and recordings from the University of Michigan libraries and archival collections.

Successful Strategic Deception: A Case Study

Successful Strategic Deception: A Case Study

This study concerns the controversial case of Alger Hiss, who was suspected of spying for Soviet Military Intelligence. It does not concern his guilt or innocence but whether the U.S. Army Military Intelligence used an undercover spy-catcher to penetrate Hiss's defense and to plant evidence forged to secure his perjury conviction. If so, Hiss's conviction, which ushered in the McCarthy era and thrust Richard Nixon to national prominence, represents an alarming intrusion of our military into civil affairs.
