碩士 === 國立中興大學 === 國際政治研究所 === 106 === To assess leader’s leadership style, researcher can apply Hermann’s leadership style model with three variables : (1) challenge or respect the political constraints (2) open or closed to information (3) motivation –problem focus or relationship focus. When researchers observe international affairs which including Russia and Japan , researchers can find eight different leadership styles for different leaders such as Russia and Japan. Hermann’s leadership style is a new different model for researchers to analysis Russia and Japan’ foreign policy. 　　Ukraine crisis burst out because of suspending the cooperation with EU, and restarting the economic negotiation with Russia. Due to dissatisfaction, Ukraine citizens living in the west Ukraine staged a Massive demonstration. Because Russia president Putin has three characteristics such as challenging political constraints, opening to information, problem focus, so Putin represents expansion leadership style. Dealing with Ukraine crisis, Putin was determined and kept a tough stance, and annexed Crimea, and also defended Russia’s national in interest. 　　As The People’s Republic of China has the rhetoric of peaceful rising, with its accumulated economic and military power, it confronts with the United States and its allies in the international community. The United States also regards it as a challenger and responds it with the rebalancing policy. While pursuing national interests, China also has conflicts with neighbor countries, such as introducing the East China Sea Air Defense Identification Zone, and Nine-Dash Line in the South China Sea, also claiming that it owns sovereignty over islands of these two regions. After taking office, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe choses an active diplomacy style, and maximizes national interests under the framework of the U.S.-Japan alliance. Under the political constraints, Abe’s diplomatic decision-making style presents two-sidedness, and causing destabilizing factor to the East Asia in the future.
