Research Abstract	This is the research which performs historical consideration about the campaign of the minority parties in the street under a two-party system. By paying attention to a relation with proletarian parties, it studies the Japanese politics from 1927 to 1931. As a result, the state of the new politics which consisted of the party cabinet system, a universal-male-suffrage system, and a two-party system organized in 1927 had great influences to the minority parties' campaign. Moreover, the confrontation axis at this time left influence to post-war politics.
