The Function of the Prefect in Japon
Within the framework of the centralising reforms of the Meiji era, departments were created and prefects introduced there, along the fines of the French model. Nominated by the Ministry of Home Affairs, they exercise supervision over local authorities. Since 1945 they have been the object of profound changes : henceforth called govemors, albeit still government representatives, they have also become representatives of the population of their department. Elected by direct universal suffrage from among the country's political-administrative elite, they constitute an interface between national and local authority. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
