| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project conducts an analysis on the Japanese political institutions from a comparative political approach with special emphases on (1) how electoral reforms and political reforms from 1890 to the present impacted on partisan competition and legislative careers that might result in government turnover, (2) which proportional representation formulae have been employed for the apportionment of seats in the House of Representatives among prefectures and how they affected the value of the vote, and (3) which of the majoritarian or consensus democratic models are appropriate for the theoretical and empirical analysis of Japan's parliamentary government. Part of the findings was published in a few journal articles.
