Explore the crucial period of Japan’s “semi-democratic” political system between 1918 and 1932 with “Failed Democratization in Prewar Japan.” This insightful book by Harukata Takenaka offers a compelling case study on regime change, delving into the reasons behind the collapse of Taisho democracy. Through detailed analysis and comparisons with Argentina, Germany, Brazil, and Thailand, Takenaka reveals universal factors contributing to democratic failure. Unlike studies focusing on success, this work uniquely examines why political parties can undermine their own institutional foundations. Essential reading for understanding democratic transitions and breakdowns in a global context, this book from The Bookish Owl provides critical lessons on political stability and the fragility of democracy.
