Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research tries to elucidate the influence which electoral governance gives to a democracy by the comparative politics. This research fills in the big blanks on the study of electoral management through the comparative studies among the countries in the world and among the local governments in Japan.Our researches have two big findings different from commonsense views. 1st, equity and fairness of election can't be achieved only by independence of the electoral management bodies, which is recommended by international organizations like ACE(Administration and Cost of Elections). We need more complicated treatment for Electoral Integrity. 2nd, though it has been thought that business of the election administration committees are uniform and so they have executed fairly and equitably in Japan, but it's largely influenced by the state of the composition of the committee and its secretariat. Therefore we have a variation of electoral governance among local governments in Japan.
