Conclusion : summary and implications. 330 $aThis 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. 606 $aLegislators$zJapan 606 $aNegotiation$zJapan 606 $aDemocracy$zJapan 606 $aPolitical parties$zJapan 607 $aJapan$xPolitics and government$y1945-$xDecision making 615 0$aLegislators 615 0$aNegotiation 615 0$aDemocracy 615 0$aPolitical parties 676 $a320.952 700 $aKuroda$b Yasumasa$f1931-$01527469 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784132403321 996 $aThe core of Japanese democracy$93770334 997 $aUNINA
