This title was first published in 1992: This book compares
stability and change in the political culture of the relatively new
Asian democracy Japan and the much older Western democracy Britain.
While the democratic polity emerged incrementally and indigenously
in Britain, it was essentially a modern and in many ways foreign
implant in Japan. By analysing long-term trends and recent changes
in political attitudes, support for government institutions,
participation, voting behaviour, and policy-making in the two
polities, the authors seek to bring us a unique perspective on
these two dynamic island political cultures on opposite ends of the
Eurasian land mass. This study will be useful as a supplemental
text in upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in
comparative political systems or political cultures, particularly
those focusing on industrial democracies. It can also be used in
courses on either British or Japanese politics.
