In so doing, it reveals the transformation of the state and governance in a Japanese context and presents itself as an example of the new governance school addressing the state, its transformation, and the governance of the political arena in Japanese politics and beyond, setting out a challenge to the established body of pluralist and rational choice literature in Japanese politics. With its comprehensive review and analysis of the theory and development of Japan's contemporary politics, this book is suitable as a textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate courses as well as a guidebook for practitioners engaging in policies and businesses relating to Japan. 606 $aPolitics$2mup 606 $aJapan$2bicssc 606 $aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Comparative Politics$2bisach 606 $aJapan$2thema 607 $aJapan$2gnd 610 $aICT. 610 $aJapanese politics. 610 $aanti-monopoly regulation. 610 $aexecutive politics. 610 $agovernance. 610 $aregulation. 610 $astate transformation. 610 $athe core executive. 615 7$aPolitics 615 7$aJapan 615 7$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Comparative Politics 615 7$aJapan 676 $a952.05 700 $aMogaki$b Masahiro$01511650 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793594103321 996 $aUnderstanding governance in contemporary Japan$93745083 997 $aUNINA
