Description

This paper examines the strategy of the policy development of the second Abe administration. Shinzo Abe marked the economy as top priority and pushed his “Abenomics” to the fore. However, this doesn’t mean the abandonment of his conservative longing, “breaking out of the post-war regime” since the first administration. Rather, he repeatedly talked about the ambition to reform the constitution, and the Abenomics was regarded as a means of realization of the goal. By emphasizing Abenomics as a realistic symbol of administration, important issues including social security reform are absorbed into the logic of economic revitalization, and the expectations of a wide range of voters to the administration were kept. In this way, his long term was obtained. But there was a dilemma in which he could not ask the public opinion about constitutional revision, because the economic policy was fixed as the main source of legitimacy of the administration.
