The book uses an original language-based bilayer theory to throw
light on the secretive structure of power in the Japanese Diet, its
national parliament, and relates its findings to Japanese
parliamentary democracy in historical perspective. In so doing, the
book answers questions about the latent policymaking process of
Japanese politics that resulted in a reduction of social alienation
and disorganization while Japan industrialized. Industrialization
significantly reduced poverty and increased the size of the middle
class, enabling the nation to move towards democracy. The reader
will see why socialists were so quixotically dogmatic toward
conservatives to the point of absurdity during the Cold War period.
Yet, they were able to form a coalition government following the
end of Cold War era.
