Ian Neary is Professor of the Politics of Japan and Fellow of the Nissan Institute and St Antony's College, University of Oxford.
‘Ian Neary’s The State and Politics in Japan is a fantastic
classroom resource. Well written and wide-ranging, this
expanded and updated second edition is the perfect introduction to
Japanese politics for students new to the subject.’
Hugo Dobson, University of Sheffield ‘The best single text for
contemporary Japanese politics. Elegantly written and packed
with engaging detail, the book combines thorough historical
context, a clear narrative of post-war
political developments, and a comprehensive overview of
Japan’s formal and informal political institutions and
actors. Careful analysis of key policy issues gives
plenty of valuable material for discussion.’
Henry Laurence, Bowdoin College
