SUMMARY:Special Lecture on Japanese Politics by Prof. Mari Miura\, Ph.D.: "Toward Gender Parity in Japan - Political Barriers\, Women's Activism and Cultural Shift"
DESCRIPTION:Toward Gender Parity in Japan – Political Barriers\, Women’s Activism and Cultural Shift \nJapan’s progress in closing its gender gap continues to lag despite government attempts in recent years to promote women’s empowerment in the economic activity. The Global Gender Gap Index by the World Economic Forum ranked Japan at 125th out of 146 countries in 2023\, its worst result since the inception of the Index in 2006. Women’s participation in politics remains remarkably low\, which\, in turn\, accounts for the lack of substantial legal advancements in fostering gender equality across various domains. To address this persistent issue\, the Gender Parity Law was enacted in 2018 and substantially revised in 2021. As an expert who was directly involved in the legislative process\, Prof. MIURA\, Ph.D.\, will talk about the impact and limitation of the law and address the way in which women’s recent activism is making a cultural shift in gender norms and practices. \n___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ \nProf. Mari MIURA\, Ph.D.\, is Professor of Political Science at the Faculty of Law at Sophia University. Her research interests cover comparative welfare state theory\, contemporary Japanese politics\, and gender and politics. Prof. MIURA\, Ph.D\, regularly advises national and local state institutions on topics of gender equality and diversity. \n \nLocation: Geschwister-Scholl-Platz 1\, 80539 Munich\, Lecture Hall M 105 \nFor all events\, registration is required:

SUMMARY:Special Lecture on Japanese Politics by Prof. Koichi Nakano\, Ph.D.: “All Quiet on the Eastern Front - Why is Japan's Democratic Backsliding invisible to the West?"
DESCRIPTION:All Quiet on the Eastern Front – Why is Japan’s Democratic Backsliding invisible to the West? \nConcerns over “democratic backsliding” – the destruction of democratic institutions and constitutional safeguards by populist “outsiders” – have been spreading in Europe\, Asia\, Latin America\, and the United States. In political science\, the phenomenon has spawned a growing literature on “competitive authoritarianism” and a popular discussion on the crisis\, even death\, of democracy. Oddly\, Japan – a country known for its perpetual conservative one-party rule of the Liberal Democratic Party (that is often said to be neither liberal nor democratic) – has been largely missing from the picture. If anything\, Japan has been receiving praises for standing up for the defense of the liberal democratic order in recent years. Why is this? Is there really no democratic backsliding in Japan today\, or is it just invisible to the West? \n___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ \nProf. Koichi NAKANO\, Ph.D.\, is Professor of Political Science\, and former Dean (2017-2021)\, at the Faculty of Liberal Arts\, Sophia University. He specializes in the comparative politics of advanced industrial democracies\, particularly Japan and Europe\, and in political theory. He has a B.A. in philosophy from the University of Tokyo; B.A. in philosophy and politics from the University of Oxford; and an M.A. and a Ph.D. in politics from Princeton University. \n \nLocation: Geschwister-Scholl-Platz 1\, 80539 Munich\, Lecture Hall M 105 \nFor all events\, registration is required:
