Vogel, Chair Professor John Zysman Professor T.J. Pempel Professor Stephen Cohen Fall 2010 Abstract Inside the Castle Gates: How Foreign Companies Navigate Japan‘s Policymaking Processes by Kenji Erik Kushida Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Berkeley Professor Steven K. Vogel, Chair Multinational corporations (MNCs) are at the heart of today‘s global economy, but their effects on the politics of advanced industrialized countries have not been studied systematically. This dissertation analyzes the case of Japan, a country most likely to reveal foreign MNCs‘ influence. Japan developed for most of its history with an extremely low presence of foreign MNCs, but it experienced a dramatic influx from the mid-1990s, particularly in long-protected sectors at the core of its postwar development model of capitalism. The dissertation explains an observed divergence in the political strategies of foreign MNCs in Japan—disruptive challenges to existing policymaking processes and norms of government-business interactions, versus insider strategies, in which MNCs worked within established organizations and prevailing modes of policymaking.
