Hello Tobias,

I'm Thomas and I've been following some of your articles (and The Iconoclast) as they help me understand the political climate in Japan.

I've been researching Japanese foreign policy for a while now since I entered university in 2021. I watched PM Kishida get elected and have been analyzing his policies whenever possible;

For my graduation paper (TCC here in Brazil) I want to analyze Japanese foreign policy under Kishida, making comparisons with previous policies and the premiers themselves;

My idea is to develop a work that talks about a "Kishida Doctrine", like the Abe Doctrine, Koizumi Doctrine, Nakasone, Fukuda, Yoshida, etc. Do you think that makes sense? Do you have any material you could recommend?

Thank you for your attention and reply!
