While much of the news coverage has focused on the LDP’s unpopularity in the face of corruption and the inflation and now will focus on whether Prime Minister Ishiba will be able to hold onto his power, Sunday’s election marks a fundamental change in Japanese society. For much of the postwar period, Japan has been ruled by a small class of male conservative politicians. This ‘Old Japan’ has prevented a ‘New Japan’ from emerging.</p> <p>The LDP’s defeat brought hopeful news to those who had been wishing for greater political representation of women. The record number of female candidates were fielded (342) and elected (73) mostly thanks to the progressive opposition party, the Constitutional Democratic Party (CDP), which emerged as a formidable opposition force winning 148 seats relative to the LDP’s 191. The CDP has been promoting female candidates in local elections and has been playing a critical role in making more conservative parties like the LDP field more women in response.</p> <p>The CDP is one of the successor parties of the Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ), the only opposition party every to unseat the LDP in a general election since its founding in 1955. The breakup of the DPJ in 2017 had paved the way for the LDP’s electoral dominance. Most Lower House seats are allocated by a winner-takes-all rule, which has benefitted the LDP, the only large party, facing a fragmented opposition</p> <p>There was, however, a silver lining. Since the breakup, CDP has shared the support from the organized labor with another successor party to DPJ, the Democratic Party for the People (DPP). CDP has pursued a strategy to cultivate women’s talent becoming much more women-friendly party than its predecessor, DPJ. In this process, it has morphed into a party that resembles European center-left parties—a kind of party that did not exist in Japan before. The CDP has been fielding women in local elections and recruiting competitive female local politicians. It represents the values of a ‘New Japan’ that the long rule by the LDP stifled. In urban Japan, many Japanese voters and politicians are eager to legalize same sex marriage, to let women retain their maiden names after marriage, and to allow Princess Aiko to succeed her father. The local councils in Tokyo reveal the character of this New Japan: women, transgender, and naturalized citizens all serve as elected representatives. The LDP has been like a heavy chain wrapped around the neck of this New Japan not letting it assert itself. The CDP still does not have a majority in the 465-person Lower House, which has the prerogative to elect the next Prime Minister. However, a New Japan finally has a chance to challenge the Old Japan.”</p> </div> </div> </div> <div id="sidebar"> <div id="author-faculty-experts" class="tab-container one"> <ul class="tabs"> <li class="tab-link" tabindex="0" data-tab="tab-1">Author</li> </ul> <div id="tab-1" class="tab-content "> <h3 class="article-title"> <a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/authors/vrmarque/">Vanessa Marquette</a> </h3> </div> </div> <div class="tab-container one"> <ul class="tabs"> <li class="tab-link" tabindex="0" data-tab="posts-tab-1" aria-controls="posts-tab-1">Recent</li> </ul> <div id="posts-tab-1" class="tab-content " tabindex="0" role="tabpanel"> <ul class="article-list-condensed"> <li class="article"> <a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/2025/02/18/qualitative-data-repository-a-national-resource-for-managing-qualitative-data-across-the-social-sciences/" title="Qualitative Data Repository: A National Resource for Managing Qualitative Data Across the Social Sciences" rel="bookmark">Qualitative Data Repository: A National Resource for Managing Qualitative Data Across the Social Sciences</a> <div class="date"> Tuesday, February 18, 2025, <a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/authors/diane-stirling/">By Diane Stirling</a> </div> </li> <li class="article"> <a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/2025/02/18/tyler-center-for-global-studies-awards-grant-to-university-to-fund-international-travel-for-research-and-creative-projects/" title="Tyler Center for Global Studies Awards Grant to University to Fund International Travel for Research and Creative Projects" rel="bookmark">Tyler Center for Global Studies Awards Grant to University to Fund International Travel for Research and Creative Projects</a> <div class="date"> Tuesday, February 18, 2025, <a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/authors/sunews/">By News Staff</a> </div> </li> <li class="article"> <a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/2025/02/18/a-walrus-in-the-body-of-a-crocodile-continues-department-of-dramas-2024-2025-season/" title="‘A Walrus in the Body of a Crocodile’ Continues Department of Drama’s 2024/2025 Season" rel="bookmark">‘A Walrus in the Body of a Crocodile’ Continues Department of Drama’s 2024/2025 Season</a> <div class="date"> Tuesday, February 18, 2025, <a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/authors/jlpenalv/">By Joanna Penalva</a> </div> </li> <li class="article"> <a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/2025/02/17/university-monitoring-winter-weather-and-travel-conditions-for-monday-feb-17-2025/" title="University Monitoring Winter Weather and Travel Conditions for Monday, Feb. 17, 2025" rel="bookmark">University Monitoring Winter Weather and Travel Conditions for Monday, Feb. 17, 2025</a> <div class="date"> Monday, February 17, 2025, <a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/authors/sunews/">By News Staff</a> </div> </li> <li class="article"> <a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/2025/02/14/newhouse-students-win-18-of-one-show-young-ones-awards/" title="Newhouse Students Win 18 of One Show Young Ones Awards" rel="bookmark">Newhouse Students Win 18 of One Show Young Ones Awards</a> <div class="date"> Friday, February 14, 2025, <a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/authors/sunews/">By News Staff</a> </div> </li> </ul> </div> </div> <div id="more"> <h3 class="section-title">More In Media Tip Sheets</h3> <div class="arrows"> <div class="icon left"></div> <div class="icon right"></div> </div> <section class="slider"> <article> <a title="stock image of an at-home COVID test" class="thumbnail" href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/2025/02/10/as-covid-19-pandemic-approaches-fifth-anniversary-whats-next/" style="background-image:url(https://news.syr.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/COVID-Test-400x300-1.jpg)"> <div role="img" aria-label="stock image of an at-home COVID test"></div> </a> <h4 class="article-title"><a href="https://news.syr.edu/blog/2025/02/10/as-covid-19-pandemic-approaches-fifth-anniversary-whats-next/">As COVID-19 Pandemic Approaches Fifth Anniversary, What’s Next?</a></h4> <div class="excerpt"><p>On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic after more than 118,000 cases in 114 countries.
