Since 2002, APJJF has published over 3,500 articles in English and Japanese focusing on new research, commentary, interviews, and translations that explore the geopolitics, economics, history, society, culture, international relations, and environment of the modern and contemporary Asia-Pacific region. The journal is also the recipient of The Ryukyu Shimpo's first Ikemiyagi Syuui Memorial Prize (琉球新報池宮城秀意記念賞), recognizing that "Japan Focus has made an outstanding worldwide contribution to proposing solutions to problems confronting Okinawa."[1]

Founded by Mark Selden, the journal is governed by an NPO board, and has an editorial board comprised of specialists in a broad range of subjects related to the Asia-Pacific. The current coeditors are Tristan R. Grunow and Mary M. McCarthy.
