Japan's Administration and the Fall of the Liberal-Democratic Party
Three forces which constitute the “brass” triangle try to monopolise decision-making power : bureaucracy, the Liberal-Democratic Party (LDP) and big business. During the last years, the two first ones were dominating. For some commentators the bureaucracy holds the decision-making power despite of the political domination of the LDP. For others on the contrary it is the LDP which had the means to manipulate administration. At the beginning of the eighties, the LDP launched an important struggle against bureaucrats. Deregulation, decentralisation and the recovery of decision making power by citizens show that political power was taking the lead. But at the beginning of the nineties the LDP was driven away by the neo-conservatives. The administration took advantage of these political troubles. Fighting bureaucracy quickly presents three advantages for political parties : to hide their own problems, to overshadow the major issues, and to allow for being easily popular. Eventually, a change in economical policy driven by the crisis and supported by the liberals is undermining the traditional interventionism of public administration in its mere principle.
