Research Abstract

This research has analyzed how oppositions projected influence over policies formulated by cabinet and has found that cabinets often took in policies advocated by oppositions to formulate some major policies after 1990s. There are two reasons that drove cabinets to adopt policies advocated by opposition parties. One is that the electoral reform of 1994 developed a two major party system in Japan and competition between two major parties increased. Second is that often the Diet became “twisted” and thus cabinet had to cooperate with opposition parties to deal with policy challenges.
