Abstract Why study Japan? Research on contemporary Japanese politics and foreign policy faces headwinds from the relative geopolitical decline of Japan and scholars skeptical about single-country studies. An overview of Japanese politics publications in English-language journals over the past four decades suggests the subfield remains active and robust. However, there is still room to grow. I argue that Japan is a harbinger state, which experiences many challenges before others in the international system. As such, studying Japan can inform both scholars and policymakers about the political challenges other countries are likely to confront in the future. In turn, scholarship on Japan offers a critical opportunity to develop theoretical insights, assess early empirical evidence, and offer policy lessons about emerging challenges and the political contestation surrounding them. I consider the reasons why Japan so often emerges as a harbinger across issue areas and suggest areas for ongoing scholarly attention.
摘要为什么要学习日本?对当代日本政治和外交政策的研究面临着来自日本相对地缘政治衰落和学者对单一国家研究持怀疑态度的阻力。对过去四十年中英文期刊上的日本政治出版物的概述表明,这一子领域仍然活跃和稳健。然而,仍有发展空间。我认为,日本是一个先驱国家,在国际体系中先于其他国家经历了许多挑战。因此,研究日本可以让学者和政策制定者了解其他国家未来可能面临的政治挑战。反过来,关于日本的学术提供了一个关键的机会,可以发展理论见解,评估早期的经验证据,并就新出现的挑战及其周围的政治争论提供政策教训。我认为为什么日本经常成为问题领域的先驱,并提出了学术界持续关注的领域。

Most of the existing explanations for authoritarian elections suffer from two shortcomings. The first one is the generalization of their findings. Single-country cases inspire many of these theories, and it is hard to know whether their proposed predictions apply to other autocracies. The second problem is prevalent in social sciences: there is no cumulative learning. Many theories of authoritarian elections provide competing explanations to the conventional wisdom without delineating the conditions in which the proposed mechanism should appear over the alternatives. Masaaki Higashijima ’ s recent publication, The Dictator ’ s Dilemma at the Ballot Box , overcomes such limitations in a magistral way. The author proposes a solid argument about the incentives for dictators to hold and manipulate elections and provides a multi-methods approach using cross-national evidence to test his argument. The book centers around the competing incentives for dictators when holding elections. On the one hand, honest election results provide information about the regime ’ s popularity, the discontent areas, and local agents ’ competence. Authoritarian elections also allow the opposition to channel its demands through the institutional arena, mitigating the threats to the dictators. On the other, winning by large margins can transmit an aura of invincibility and strong popular support to the dictator inside and outside the ruling elites. In the best
现有对独裁选举的大多数解释都有两个缺点。第一个是对他们的发现的概括。单一国家的案例激发了许多这样的理论,很难知道他们提出的预测是否适用于其他独裁国家。第二个问题在社会科学中很普遍:没有累积的学习。许多关于独裁选举的理论为传统智慧提供了相互竞争的解释,但没有描述拟议机制应该出现在替代方案之上的条件。东岛正明(Masaaki Higashijima)最近出版的《独裁者在投票箱的困境》(The Dictator’s Dilemma at The Ballot Box)以一种权威的方式克服了这些限制。作者就独裁者举行和操纵选举的动机提出了一个坚实的论点,并提供了一种使用跨国家证据来检验他的论点的多种方法。这本书围绕着独裁者在举行选举时相互竞争的动机展开。一方面,诚实的选举结果提供了有关政权受欢迎程度、不满地区和地方代理人能力的信息。威权主义选举还允许反对派通过体制舞台传递其要求,减轻对独裁者的威胁。另一方面,以较大优势获胜可以将不可战胜的光环和强大的民众支持传递给统治精英内外的独裁者。在最好的

Populism and the print media: the case of Japan 民粹主义与纸媒:以日本为例

Abstract Japan has experienced many of the factors associated with populism, but has not experienced an upsurge of populism in national-level politics. We posit that the dominant frames in the Japanese print media coverage of populism form a crucial and overlooked part of the explanation for the absence of populism. Our qualitative human-coded analysis of quality and tabloid coverage demonstrates that overall, the Japanese newspapers act as gatekeepers and set an agenda that is unfavorable for right-wing populism. The press engage in ‘media populism’ and frame populism – and alternatives to the status quo more generally – as a threat. Moreover, the print media are not hostile to immigrants in ways that populists could leverage.
摘要日本经历了许多与民粹主义相关的因素,但在国家层面的政治中没有经历民粹主义的高涨。我们认为,日本平面媒体对民粹主义的报道中的主导框架是解释民粹主义缺失的关键和被忽视的部分。我们对质量和小报报道的定性人工编码分析表明,总体而言,日本报纸充当了看门人,制定了一个不利于右翼民粹主义的议程。媒体从事“媒体民粹主义”,并将民粹主义——以及更普遍的现状替代方案——视为一种威胁。此外,印刷媒体并没有以民粹主义者可以利用的方式敌视移民。

What determines the relative success of different war compensation policies? Comparing three unresolved compensation issues between Japan and South Korea 是什么决定了不同战争赔偿政策的相对成功?比较日韩之间三个未解决的赔偿问题

Abstract This article examines three Japan–South Korea postwar compensation cases: the comfort women issue, the Sakhalin Island forced labor issue, and Korean atomic bomb survivor issue. These compensation movements produced vastly different results, even though the basic policy directions for compensation provision in all three cases were similar. Japan's approach toward the comfort women problem has been a complete failure, while its treatment of the Sakhalin forced labor issue and the atomic bomb issues has been more successful. This article's explanation of the different outcomes focuses on the character and geographical base of the civic groups leading these compensation movements. In South Korea, women's rights activists spearheaded the comfort women compensation movement and related victim-relief activities. The Korean non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that assisted the comfort women treated this problem not only as a women's rights issue, but also as a nationalist issue. In contrast, the Red Cross, a politically neutral international organization, promoted the Sakhalin forced labor and atomic bomb issues. In short, the different receptions accorded to those championing the comfort women issue and those promoting the Sakhalin forced labor and atomic bomb issues depended on the principal agent of each compensation process. This article aims to provide some implications for successfully implementing postwar compensation policies. It suggests that, if successful postwar compensation policy depends on successful perpetrator–victim reconciliation, establishing solidarity between perpetrator and victim countries’ civic groups is important. This can only be facilitated through the depoliticized and transparent operation of leading NGOs both inside and outside the redressal-seeking nation.
摘要本文考察了日韩三个战后赔偿案件:慰安妇问题、库页岛强征劳工问题和朝鲜原子弹幸存者问题。尽管这三种情况下提供补偿的基本政策方向是相似的,但这些补偿变动产生了截然不同的结果。日本在慰安妇问题上的做法是彻底失败的,而在库页岛强制征用问题和原子弹问题上的处理则比较成功。本文对不同结果的解释侧重于领导这些赔偿运动的公民团体的性质和地理基础。在韩国,女权运动者率先发起了慰安妇赔偿运动和相关的受害者救济活动。帮助慰安妇的韩国民间团体(ngo)不仅将慰安妇问题视为妇女权利问题,还将其视为民族主义问题。相反,政治中立的国际组织红十字会(Red Cross)却宣传了库页岛强制劳动和原子弹问题。总之,对主张慰安妇问题的人和主张库页岛强迫劳动和原子弹问题的人的不同接待取决于每个赔偿过程的主要代理人。本文旨在为战后薪酬政策的成功实施提供一些启示。这表明,如果成功的战后赔偿政策取决于成功的加害者-受害者和解,那么在加害者和受害国的公民团体之间建立团结是重要的。这只能通过寻求救济的国家内外主要非政府组织的非政治化和透明运作来实现。

Aging and the politics of monetary policy in Japan 老龄化与日本货币政策的政治

Abstract This paper explores how Japan's aging population impacts the politics of monetary policy. Previous research suggests that the elderly have a variety of distinct policy preferences. Given that elderly voters also have higher voting rates, the rapid greying of the population could have significant effects on distributive struggles over economic policy across much of the developed world. In Japan, aging is advancing rapidly, and the central bank has engaged in massive monetary stimulus to induce inflation, which existing work suggests the elderly should oppose. Analyzing results from three surveys, this paper has three central findings: (1) the elderly tend to have higher inflation aversion, (2) the elderly display some opposition to quantitative easing (QE), and (3) despite such policy preferences, the concentration of elderly in electoral districts has no significant effect on the preferences either of legislative incumbents or candidates. The third finding is attributable to the fact that elderly opposition to QE is moderated by their partisan identification. Elderly Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) voters have systematically lower opposition to QE, likely reflecting that these voters have aligned their preferences with the LDP's policies.
摘要本文探讨了日本人口老龄化对货币政策政治的影响。先前的研究表明,老年人有各种不同的政策偏好。鉴于老年选民的投票率也较高,人口的快速老龄化可能会对发达国家经济政策的分配斗争产生重大影响。在日本,老龄化正在迅速推进,央行采取了大规模的货币刺激措施来引发通货膨胀,现有的研究表明老年人应该反对这种做法。分析三项调查的结果,本文有三个核心发现:(1)老年人倾向于更高的通胀厌恶情绪,(2)老年人对量化宽松表现出一定的反对态度,以及(3)尽管有这样的政策偏好,但选区中老年人的集中对现任立法者或候选人的偏好没有显著影响。第三个发现归因于这样一个事实,即老年人对量化宽松的反对受到他们的党派认同的调节。年长的自民党选民系统性地降低了对量化宽松的反对,这可能反映出这些选民的偏好与自民党的政策一致。

Do political power shifts reduce corruption in Korean local governments? ▷政权交替能减少韩国地方自治团体的腐败吗?

Abstract Previous studies have discussed the effects of electoral competition on corruption, but only a few explored the effects of political power shifts – the results of electoral competition. To fill the gap, this study tests hypotheses that three types of political power shifts (the shifts of individual local government heads, local government ruling party, and local council majority) reduce the corruption (overall, external, and internal), with a panel data set of 226 Korean local governments. The empirical study shows that only shifts in the local government head reduce internal corruption. The other dependent and independent variables do not have any significant relationships. This can be because of structural matters of Korean local politics such as strong mayor-weak council and the closed local elite networks.
摘要以往的研究讨论了选举竞争对腐败的影响,但很少探讨政治权力转移——选举竞争的结果——对腐败的影响。为了填补这一空白,本研究用226个韩国地方政府的面板数据集测试了三种政治权力转移(地方政府个人负责人、地方政府执政党和地方议会多数)减少腐败(整体、外部和内部)的假设。实证研究表明,只有地方政府首脑换届才能减少内部腐败。其他因变量和自变量没有任何显著的关系。这可能是因为韩国地方政治的结构问题,比如市长强、议会弱、地方精英圈封闭等。

Dyadic representation in parliamentary democracy in Japan 日本议会民主中的Dyadic代表

Abstract This study evaluates dyadic representation, that is, the link between the policy preferences of the constituencies and their representatives in the Japanese Lower House (LH). More specifically, this study examines how the within-party variation in policy positions among party candidates corresponds with that across their districts. By examining a series of candidate surveys conducted between 2003 and 2012 as well as the local employment structure, this study maps the association between the policy preferences of constituencies and those of their district candidates for two major parties. Specifically, candidates were found to take more rural-oriented positions on economic policies when running in districts with rural employment structures, while there remained a clear difference between parties. Moreover, this study demonstrates that constituencies accord more votes to candidates who better represent their preferences, strengthening the link by electing those who fulfill the responsibility beyond their party label.
摘要本研究评估了二元代表性,即选区的政策偏好与其在日本众议院中的代表之间的联系。更具体地说,本研究考察了政党候选人在政策立场上的党内差异如何与他们所在地区的政策立场相对应。通过对2003年至2012年期间进行的一系列候选人调查以及当地的就业结构进行分析,本研究绘制了选区的政策偏好与两个主要政党的地区候选人的政策偏好之间的关系。具体而言,候选人在农村就业结构的地区竞选时,在经济政策上采取了更多面向农村的立场,而政党之间仍然存在明显的差异。此外,本研究显示,选民会将更多选票投给更能代表他们偏好的候选人,透过选举那些超越政党标签履行责任的候选人,加强这种连结。
