Japanese Politics 101: Emerging as the political arm of a powerful & growing Buddhist Sect, the Komei Party has grown to control nearly 8 million active and very loyal voters. As a result, Komei-to has played a key role in moderating local as well as national policy, deciding elections of Governors, Prime Ministers, and local/national Assemblymen and even overthrowing the LDP in toughly fought constituencies ... even the national government in the not-so distant past. But eventually, the LDP formed a coalition with this religious party and together they set the legislative agenda. Join Michael and Timothy as they delve into Komei-to's role in the dynamic of understanding Japanese politics.
