Overview
Lam Peng-Er examines the strengths and organization of the Network Movement, Japan's Green Party. He finds that it remains marginal because of the dominance of the mainstream party machine.
Synopsis
An important comparative study of Japanese politics that reveals that green issues have yet to displace the traditional urban politics of post-industrial Japan. This is unlike the rise of green parties and politics in Europe. Unlike Europe, it seems that political values in Japan are still informed by the conservative values of hierarchy and deference.Book Details
