Contenu central

This book, aimed at any citizen interested in the underlying mechanics and fabric of public debate, takes the reader on an encounter with a democracy little studied by mainstream political science: Japan. It explores the highly symbolic angle of parliament to "uncover" the mysteries of its political system. And its shortcomings... which give relief to our own.
