Introduction : dissimulation, enigma, formalist, prismatic society to bilayer theory -- 2. The bilayer theory -- 3. Japanese politics in bilayer perspective -- 4. The history of IPRC politics : 1890-1993 -- 5. The origin and nature of the bilayer structure -- 6. The core of Japanese democracy -- 7. Conclusion : summary and implications.This book seeks to explain how politics actually operates in the Japanese Diet using the author's bilayer theory or dual power structure theory. It is about how politics in Japan operates behind closed doors and how laws are actually made in the Diet. While some parts of the process remain hidden-subterfuge is inherently part of politics-the author uses interviews with party officials, current and former kokkai taisaku-inkai committee members of all parties in the Diet to elucidate the process as much as possible.AsiaPolitics and governmentInternational relationsPolitical scienceAsian PoliticsInternational RelationsPolitical ScienceAsiaPolitics and government.International relations.Political science.Asian Politics.International Relations.Political Science.320.952Kuroda Yasumasa1931-1792854MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910957109403321The Core of Japanese Democracy4332007UNINA
