Abstract
The age of ‘big politics’, with sweeping domestic political and economic reform and extensive participation in world affairs, has arrived in Japan. The Liberal Democratic Party's long grip on power has been broken, and the old multi-member constituencies that encouraged the pork-barrel style of politics are gone for good. Voters now want to see more power in the hands of uncorrupt, reform-oriented, non-socialist political forces. The New Frontier Party and the Liberal Democratic Party, which could come to represent consumers’ and producers’ interests, respectively, have gained a great deal of momentum in 1995. The forthcoming general election and the manner in which Japan conducts its reform process will undoubtedly have a global impact.
