Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research project is to make clear reasons and influences of electoral districts reform at the prefectural level in recent Japan. We examine the reality of change (or no change), and the effects of voters and politicians to the reform. Though our analysis is not yet finished, we temporary conclude that almost all voters support to decrease seats, and also that political factors (ex. share of Opposition parties) in the assemblies work. Through the case study, we found that District Magnitude and a variety of party competition are the important keys.
