  • Japan Under Prime Minister Hatoyama and the New Government – a Brief Overview of Key Players, Policies and Implications –
    Tokyo | September 1 7, 2009 CNC Info Letter Japan Under Prime Minister Hatoyama and The New Government – A Brief Overview of Key Players, Policies and Implications – by Jochen Legewie I STRUCTURE AND PLAYERS Hatoyama Profile: Between hereditary politician and bureaucratic maverick Yukio Hatoyama, 62, is a 4 th generation politician. His grandfather was Japan’s first prime minster from the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) in 1954- 1956. Hatoyama was educated at Tokyo University and Stanford University, where he obtained his PhD in Engineering. He entered politics at the age of 39 after having worked at the famous Tokyo Institute of Technology. He has been nicknamed “The Alien” for his unorthodox manners and for being something of an outsider among traditional political circles. His soft- speaking manners make him very different from former maverick prime minister Junichiro Koizumi. Yukio Hatoyama The DPJ victory – Frustration with LDP overwhelming reason The figures send a clear message: In the lower house election on August 30, the LDP plummeted from 300 to 119 seats, while the Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) increased their seats from 115 to 308 out of a total of 480 seats. This overwhelming victory, however, was less a vote of confidence in the DPJ than the result of over-boiling frustration with the LDP. Already 8 years ago the frustration of the people was strong. But running on the ticket of maverick Koizumi the LDP could hang on for two more election periods. During this time, the DPJ, founded in 1996, finally turned into a major opposition party and became the strongest political force in the upper house elections in July 2007.

  • East Asian Community” in Vain
    ISS Discussion Paper Series F-172 Building an “East Asian Community” in vain: Japan's Power Shift and Regionalism in the New Millennium Hiroyuki Hoshiro1 1 Institute of Social Science, The University of Tokyo ([email protected]) 1 Abstract In August 2009, as a result of the “historical” general election of Japan, the Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) gained legislative majority and took over the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) government, which had been in power for more than 16 years. One of the most noteworthy foreign policies launched by the new Japanese government was aimed at building an “East Asian Community;” however, little progress was observed with regards to the promotion of economic regionalism, during the DPJ era (2009-2012). Why was this policy not as actively pursued by the DPJ cabinet as originally intended? This is puzzling, given the fact that economic regionalism was one of the Prime Minister’s most favored policies; and that there was an absence of significant objections from opposition parties with regards to this policy. This paper addresses this question by elucidating factors that promoted or impeded the building of an “East Asian Community” from the perspective of Japanese domestic politics. In particular, this paper sheds light on the preferences of the existing societal organizations of land, capital, and labor, on the one hand, and their relationships with the ruling government, on the other. This paper shows that the previous DPJ government, having been an advocate of economic regionalism in East Asia, has, in fact, experienced strong dissent among its supporters.
