The majority thinks that the US-Japan security alliance is the cornerstone of Japan 's security strategy and is suspicious of any thoughts that are likely to shake the cornerstone . For instance , to a certain extent , China understands some of Japan 's uneasiness and the need to maintain the US-Japan security alliance . Palace-Burner , however , also reveals Piatt 's other side : ironic , experimental , and pushing the limits of Victorian language , the sentimental female persona , and what women 's poetry could say . What China is concerned about is Japan 's piecemeal redefinition of its alliance with the United States . Hence , from Japan 's point of view , the role of the US-Japan alliance is to protect Japan 's maritime lifeline , dispel any potential attempt by China to control the Pacific Ocean or Japan 's lifeline , and also preempt any chance of a Sino-US unity to strike and suppress Japan . Through Sinke 's articulate and captivating descriptions of real women , the statistical evidence comes to life , providing valuable and heretofore unexamined views on the international marriage market , language shifts , the acquisition of American customs , the church 's role in adaptation , and the shifting economies that allowed women to work outside of the home . Groden says that many white students were able to attend parochial schools in neighboring communities ; that the church 's rules covering student transfers did not apply to those schools during the first year . Baumeister introduces Donovan Moore 's report on Madison Park High School , located at a neutral site in downtown Boston . Paula Bernat Bennett 's astutely edited selection of Piatt 's mature work - - much of it never before collected - - explains why her " deviant poetics " caused her peers such discomfort and why they remain such a fertile ground for study today .
