The book offers a study of a fascinating political personality,
that of Japanese prime minister Abe Shinzo (2012-2020). Abe's
political career was boosted by his predecessor Koizumi Jun.ichiro
and he seemed extremely promising at 51 when he rose to become the
youngest Cabinet Secretariat chief, however once in power in 2007
he disappointed by resigning after only one year. Yet, he rose
again in 2012 to become the longest-serving prime minister of
Japan's history since the end of the Meiji Era (1868-1912), when
Japan went through a radical process of modernization and
westernization, becoming a major military and imperialist power in
the process. The book seeks to answer three questions. How could
Abe Shinzo remain in power for nearly a decade in a country where
prime ministers usually have much shorter terms, in some cases of
only one year? He remained in power in spite of the fact that he
sought to conduct massive reforms. What was the policy mix devised
to keep voters happy, while promoting structural reforms and
growth? He was in power for almost ten years. What is his legacy:
what remains of his tenure as chief executive?
