Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this research project is to investigate the transformation of LDP leadership selection process. Since the LDP is a dominant party, selecting the LDP leadership equals to the selection of PM of Japan. It seems that the LDP leadership selection process has experienced a large scale change since the early 2000s, which is typically represented by the regularly scheduled votes by party members. On the other hand, change in votes by the LDP diet members remain to be seen. This research collected the data on voting behavior of the diet members, and tried to clarify the extent of weakening factional influence.
