Japan: Who Governs?: The Rise of the Developmental State

Chalmers Johnson long has been America s most penetrating, provocative analyst of Japan s political economy. . . . The scholarship is superb, and the analysis persuasive and enlightening. . . . An accessible, handy compilation of insights that undergird revisionism the view that Japan s politico-economic system differs far more from the Western model than most Westerners realize]. . . . Juicy insights, such as Johnson s explanation of structural corruption as it s revealed by the career of the late Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka, provide more than enough meat to chew on and relish.
