After the World War 2, Japan’s loss left Japan without enough defense to protect its country. Under the San Francisco Agreement, the United States and Japan make a Security Cooperation. With all the dynamics on the International Relation, United States and Japan have enhance their security alliance. This research will use alliance dilemma theory by Glenn H. Snyder. According to Snyder when the alliance is formed, the state has two choices in its alliance, cooperate or defect. The risk is when a state decided to make an alliance, the state will entrapped on the alliance. While if a state decided to defect, the state will get abandonment.
