  • The Process of Restructuring the Imperial Household Ministry in Occupied Japan
    Hitotsubashi Bulletin of Social Sciences. Vol.5., 2013. The Process of Restructuring the Imperial Household Ministry in Occupied Japan Hajime Sebata The purpose of this paper is to shed light on the restructuring of the organization of Japan's Imperial Household Ministry in 1945-1949. The Emperor was the absolute sovereign and the supreme commander under the Meiji Constitution. The Imperial Household Ministry was independent from the government, authorized by imperial law and separate from the constitution. After WWII, General Headquarters (GHQ) of the Allied Forces wanted to reform the government of Japan. They took over the Emperor's authority and the property of the Imperial House, and set the Emperor as a "symbol" in the new constitution. Thereafter, all acts of the Emperor in matters of state would require the advice and approval of the Cabinet. The Imperial Household Ministry (Kunai-sho) lost much of its authority and was reorganized as the Imperial Household Offi ce (Kunai-fu). However, Prime Minister Shigeru Yoshida strove to maintain the independence of the Imperial Household Offi ce. He believed its offi ce should be under the "jurisdiction" (not "management") of the Prime Minister. In Emperor Hirohito's "Postwar Tour," the officers in the Government Section of GHQ criticized the Imperial Household Offi ce as a violation of their policies. They believed that the views of the offi cers in the Imperial Household Offi ce were unchanging and therefore decided to introduce further reforms. Then Prime Minister Tetsu Katayama and Hitoshi Ashida had the same idea. Ashida reorganized the Imperial Household Offi ce as the Imperial Household Agency (Kunai-cho) under the "management" of the Prime Minister.

By the time they surrendered in 1945, Japan’s military leaders had slashed industrial production to 1930 levels.1 Not so with the American occupiers. By the time they left in 1952, they had rebuilt the economy and grown it by fifty percent.2 By 1960 the economy had tripled, and by 1970 tripled once more.3 For Japan’s spectacular economic recovery, the American-run Allied Occupation had apparently set the stage. The Americans had occupied, and the economy had boomed. The Americans had ruled, and Japan had thrived.

INSTITUTION ASIA Society, New York, N.Y. PUB DATE Oct 87 NOTE 39p.; Written for the Asia Society Media Relations Program. PUB TYPE Reports -Descriptive (141) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Asian History; Asian Studies; Elections; Foreign Countries; Government Role; *International Relations; Political Influences; Political Issues; Political Power; Politics; Social Studies; Social Systems; Voting; World Affairs IDENTIFIERS *Japan ABSTRACT Divided into four major parts, this document explains the significance of the Liberal :)emocratic Party (LDP) in Japan. Part 1 indicates that the LDP has governed Japan since 19b5 and controls 445 seats in the 764 seat parliament. The selection of the prime minister, chosen from within the ruling party, is seen as vital to U.S. interests. For example U.S. - Japanese trade totaled 109 billion dollars in 1986. The last prime minister, Yesuhiro Nakasone, presided over major changes in both politics and Japanese society. The primary concern for the United States is whether the new prime minister can reduce the current tension in U.S.--Japanese relations. Part 2 of the report describes the selection process for the prime ministers by the party members. Part 3 provides profiles of the four candidates and describes the legacy of Nakasone. Part 4 outlines the key issues and implications of the election for the United States. The new prime minister will face several key tasks that include restructuring the economy, stabilizing the yen, and maintaining a base of support.
