A File on 4 Special

The first of two Michael Robinson reports from the US, Japan and the Far East on the struggle between the world's two economic superpowers and the threat it poses to the prosperity and stability of the rest of the world.

In Washington 400 pieces of legislation are before Congress to stem the tide of imports from Japan and the newly industrialised countries of the Far East. The American automobile, textile and steel industries are in decline; even the fabled Silicon Valley has been hit by cheap Japanese electronics. Confronted with this challenge, what is the mood of America and how do the usually inscrutable Japanese respond?
