Description

This Nissan Institute/Routledge Japanese Studies volume examines the Democratic Party of Japan's tumultuous three-year rule from September 2009 to December 2012. When the DPJ came to power, Japanese citizens anticipated a transformative political era marked by genuine two-party competition. However, the administration grappled with extraordinary challenges: the catastrophic triple disasters of March 2011, controversial policy decisions, and massive party defections triggered by contentious consumption tax hike legislation. The party's inability to manage these crises culminated in a devastating loss in the 2012 Lower House election, where its seat count collapsed dramatically. This scholarly work provides comprehensive analysis of the DPJ's policy failures, internal conflicts, and the political forces that dismantled what many hoped would reshape Japanese democracy.

Key Features

Covers the Democratic Party of Japan's entire September 2009-December 2012 administration period with detailed examination of key policy decisions and outcomes.

Analyses the impact of the March 2011 triple disasters on the DPJ government and its subsequent political consequences.

Explores the consumption tax hike legislation and resulting party defections that destabilised the Democratic Party of Japan.

Published by Routledge as part of the authoritative Nissan Institute/Routledge Japanese Studies series for academic credibility.

Provides scholarly perspective on how the DPJ's electoral defeat in 2012 reshaped Japanese party politics and governance structures.
