Periodically, the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force chooses to open up to the public via a given writer and for this generation Alessio Patalano is the chosen instrument. The basic thrust of this monograph is that Patalano examines how the post-1945 Japanese maritime leadership created a usable past out of the materials at hand, while at the same time critically examining that heritage, so as to create what is arguably Japan's senior military service. Greatly helping matters was that the Imperial Japanese Navy was seen as having conducted itself in a much more proper fashion, as compared to the army, and that there were noted journalists who helped to weave that usable past. The key difference was creating a service taught to serve the general public, and not just the imperial house, and with a keen appreciation that, in general, the Japanese military's grasp of high strategy prior to 1945 was, at best, rudimentary.

In Post-war Japan as a Sea Power, Alessio Patalano incorporates new, exclusive source material to develop an innovative approach to the study of post-war Japan as a military power. This archival-based history of Asia's most advanced navy, the Japanese Maritime Self-Defence Force (JMSDF), looks beyond the traditional perspective of viewing the modern Japanese military in light of the country's alliance with the US. The book places the institution in a historical context, analysing its imperial legacy and the role of Japan's shattering defeat in WWII in the post-war emergence of Japan as East Asia's 'sea power'.
