Item Description
Results for Japan’s snap election are in: The ruling coalition, headed by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, won by a landslide, capturing 291 parliamentary seats. What happens now that the LDP has a new mandate is up for debate. While Abe justified the move as asking for a renewed public mandate for Abenomics and to delay his planned tax increase, observers speculate that Abe will use his new mandate to instead strengthen Japan’s use of military force in its constitution.
