The New Politics, Culture Wars, and The Authoritarian-Libertarian Value Change in Advanced Industrial Democracies
The plurality of conflicting worldviews that are now found in the Western advanced industrial democracies has created values and belief systems that are markedly at odds with each other, which in turn has projected a whole new set of new politics or culture war issues onto the political agenda. The authors have empirically identified an authoritarian-libertarian dimension of value change that captures an important dimension of this shift. They de…
Value Change and Democratic Reform in Japan and Korea
This study explores the underlying causes of the processes of democratic reform in Japan and Korea over the past decade. In both nations, elite-challenging pressures from below have been the stimulus forcing reforms on the governing elites. For this reason, changes in mass attitudes and values become a crucial explanatory variable in accounting for recent political reforms. The authors discuss the pattern of political development in these two nat…

The Japanese Voter
Crisis, Choice, and Changein Retrospect
THE ‘NEW INSTITUTIONALISM’ HAS BEEN THE MOST VISIBLE movement in American political science during the last decade. It is a recoil from reductionism that is said to have dominated the political science of the previous decades. During the American Political Science Association presidency of Charles E. Lindblom in 1981, with Theodore Lowi and Sidney Tarrow as co-chairs of the Program Committee, it was decided that all titles of panels and round tab…
Value Change in Industrial Societies
Ronald Inglehart has argued that, while most of the major political parties in Western countries tend to be aligned along a social class-based axis, support for new political movements and new political parties largely reflects the tension between materialist and postmaterialist goals and values. This has presented something of a dilemma to the traditional parties, and helps account for the decline of social-class voting. Scott Flanagan takes iss…
Electoral Change In Advanced Industrial Democracies
Electoral Change in Advanced Industrial Democracies: Realignment or Dealignment?
In this study of the breakdown of traditional party loyalties and voting patterns, prominent comparativists and country specialists examine the changes now occurring in the political systems of advanced industrial democracies.Originally published in 1985.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These …

Parties under stress: Realignment and dealignment in advanced industrial societies
The findings of a forthcoming study of electoral change in advanced industrial democracies are reviewed. These findings point to broad‐based processes of change that can be organised around two models ‐a social cleavage model of realignment and a functional model of dealignment. Both types of change are at work in most party systems. Surprisingly, their impact on future party system change is likely to be more reinforcing than contradictory in al…
National Aid and Local Autonomy in Japan: The Impact of Central Financing on Prefectural Expenditures
It has long been believed that local autonomy is virtually nonexistent in Japan, but few empirical studies have tested for the impact of central controls over local financing on local spending priorities. In an analysis of budgetary data for Japan's 46 prefectures it is found that national aid has a weaker direct stimulation effect in Japan than in the United States, and that national aid has been used by local Japanese governments to release rev…
Measuring Value Change in Advanced Industrial Societies: A Rejoinder to Inglehart
Changing Values in Advanced Industrial Societies: Inglehart's Silent Revolution from the Perspective of Japanese Findings
Ronald Inglehart has demonstrated the important political and behavioral implications of value change in advanced industrial societies. In an effort to enhance our understanding of this politically relevant “silent revolution,” an alternate theory of value change is presented, contrasting Inglehart's “needs theory” approach with a “functional constraints” theoretic construct. It is then argued that both kinds of value change are taking place, the…

Political Opposition and Local Politics in Japan
Japan's national government, and most of its local governments, have been in conservative hands for more than three decades. Recently, however, the strength of progressive opposition forces has been increasing at the local level. The contributors to this volume analyze this increasing opposition to determine whether it is a temporary phenomenon or portends permanent changesOriginally published in 1981.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest …
Value Cleavages, Economic Cleavages, and the Japanese Voter
Both economic and value cleavages have been shown to have an important impact on the voting behavior of citizens in advanced industrial societies. Because these two cleavages are cross-cutting, a third dimension that measures the relative salience of value issues is necessary to predict voting choices more accurately. Using Japanese data. I derive independent measures of economic interests, of value preferences, and of the salience attached to va…
Value Change and Partisan Change in Japan: The Silent Revolution Revisited
Back to the Barre, Brian Barry
Brian Barry has a critical talent of a high order. He often executes elegant ballet steps which take the breath away; but occasionally he trips over his own feet and falls into the orchestra pit, making a dreadful racket. His long review article on Crisis, Choice, and Change which appeared in the January and April (1977) numbers of this Journal is one of these unfortunate accidents
