Outline of Final Research Achievements

Alteration between the conservaitve and the progressive in advanced democracies in the second half of the 20th century functioned until the 1990s. Switch between parties brought about policy shift that absobed popular will for political or policy change.
However, development of global capitalism undermined economic presumption for political stability in the 21st century. In particular, deterioration of employment and expansion of gap have made ordinary middle class frustrated with moderate party politics. In this context, populism with extreme leaders might be threat to the very basic values of democracy and open society. Realignment of rational parites beyond traditional confrontation line might become necessary to defend democracy in the 21st cenntury.
