The Politics of Oligarchy: Institutional Choice in Imperial Japan (Political Economy of Institutions and Decisions) Book
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 Japan's political competition, economic development, and diplomatic relations.
