STRELTSOV, Dmitri Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The results from the elections of 2017 and 2019 show that the coalition of the Liberal Democratic Party and the Komeito once again has a stable majority in both houses of parliament. This article analyzes the reasons for the electoral failures of the opposition. These include such factors as the predominance of a large conservative segment in the electoral field, a rise of populism in society, a demand for charismatic leaders, and Shinzo Abe's skillful use of the possibilities offered by the media. Future prospects for the opposition are seen in the promotion of political alternatives with regard to social policy that are attractive in the eyes of the electorate.
