Book Synopsis National Integration and Local Power in Japan by : Yasuo Takao
Download or read book National Integration and Local Power in Japan written by Yasuo Takao and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1999, this book offers a new study of local government in Japan. There is an enormous amount of information about Japanese local government that has not yet appeared in English. With the author’s local familiarity, elected local officials and local residents have been extraordinarily open and forthcoming. This allows a rethinking of the topic by mobilising a multitude of solid factual material. Japan has dealt with the dramatically increased public sector, but has done so in a setting of institutional centralisation. How has central authority sought to find ways of managing the continuous expansion of state activities? How have local authorities responded to central government’s initiative in integrating state administration? The answers the book gives to these questions present an alternative understanding of Japanese local government.

Book Synopsis Local Politics and National Policy by : Ken Victor Leonard Hijino
Download or read book Local Politics and National Policy written by Ken Victor Leonard Hijino and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-04-28 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about why and how central and local governments clash over important national policy decisions. Its empirical focus is on the local politics of Japan which has significantly shaped, and been shaped by, larger developments in national politics. The book argues that since the 1990s, changes in the national political arena, fiscal and administrative decentralization, as well as broader socio-economic developments have led to a decoupling of once closely integrated national and local party systems in Japan. Such decoupling has led to a breakdown of symbiotic relations between the centre and regions. In its place are increasing strains between national and local governments leading to greater intra-party conflict, inter-governmental conflicts, and more chief executives with agendas and resources increasingly autonomous of the national ruling party. Although being a book primarily focused on the Japanese case, the study seeks to contribute to a broader understanding of how local partisans shape national policy-making. The book theorizes and investigates how the degree of state centralization, vertical integration for party organizations, and partisan congruence in different levels of government affect inter-governmental relations. Japan’s experience is compared with Germany, Canada, and the UK to explore sources of multi-level policy conflict.

Book excerpt: Focusing on the marginal region of Toyama, on the Sea of Japan, the author explores the interplay of central and regional authorities, local and national perceptions of rights, and the emerging political practices in Toyama and Tokyo that became part of the new political culture that took shape in Japan following the Meiji Restoration. Lewis argues that in response to the demands of the centralizing state, local elites and leaders in Toyama developed a repertoire of supple responses that varied with the political or economic issue at stake.

Book Synopsis Local Government Development in Post-war Japan by : Michio Muramatsu
Download or read book Local Government Development in Post-war Japan written by Michio Muramatsu and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2001 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the evolution of intergovernmental relations in postwar Japan. These relations are shown to be both complex and dynamic, and the Japanese model is revealed as one in which aspects of both central control and local autonomy have co-existed with the balance shifting graduallyover time towards the latter. The Japanese system has helped to maintain broad-based economic growth since it has at its core a strongly egalitarian fiscal transfer mechanism. At the same time, it has proved to be consistent, to a much greater extent than previously recognized, with politicaldevelopment, or progress in the attainment of such political values as liberty (personal rights) and equality (broad participation in public affairs) for individuals and communities. This is because the national government has proved flexible enough to accommodate, although not always with grace oralacrity, citizen concerns about the quality of life. The Japanese approach to intergovernmental relationships has also been successful in solving coordination problems which often arise between local and central government units and in building capacity to support greater and effectivedecentralization. Coordination problems have been handled through a variety of mechanisms including the practice of agency delegated functions, while local capacity issues have been addressed through such practices as the exchange of personnel across different levels of government and the use ofattractive compensation and training packages to recruit and retain local staff. The Japanese experience thus provides an example of gradual and guided decentralization based on shared responsibilities between local and central governments for mobilizing, managing, and spending public resources inthe pursuit of sustainable development.

This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Japan's national government, and most of its local governments, have been in conservative hands for more than three decades. Recently, however, the strength of progressive opposition forces has been increasing at the local level.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The real leaders for the economic and social revolution which has taken place in Japan over the twenty years following the Second Wold War have been the Japanese government - not just Prime Ministers and Ministers of State, but the leadership of the ministries of the national government which, along with the leaders of the ruling Liberal Democratic party, constitute the three 'rings of power' which rule Japan. Professor Bingman uses his wide experience in the US government to identify and provide a superb distillation of facts and insights about how the Japanese government manages public programs in what he calls 'a remarkable achievement in public management'.
