Description: The Politics of Oligarchy by J. Mark Ramseyer, Frances McCall Rosenbluth Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description In the latter-half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century, Japan underwent two major shifts in political control. In the 1910s, the power of the oligarchy was eclipsed by that of a larger group of professional politicians; in the 1930s the focus of power shifted again, this time to a set of independent military leaders. Publisher Description This book examines a key question of modern Japanese politics: why the Meiji oligarchs were unable to design institutions capable of protecting their power. The authors question why the oligarchs chose the political institutions they did, and what the consequences of those choices were for Japans political competition, economic development, and diplomatic relations. Indeed, they argue, it was the oligarchs very inability to agree among themselves on how to rule that prompted them to cut the military loose from civilian control--a decision that was to have disastrous consequences not only for Japan but for the rest of the world.
