The Political economy of the Japanese financial big bang :

Toya, Tetsuro

The Political economy of the Japanese financial big bang : institutional change in finance and public policymaking / Tetsuro Toya - Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2006 - xix, 328p, 24cm.

This book argues that the emergence of the Big Bang Initiative poses numerous challenges to conventional interpretations of Japanese politics and represents a clear case of institutional change in Japanese finance. It says that the emergence in the 1990s of performance failures and scandals attributed to the bureaucracy, as well as the increase in the likelihood of a change in government in this period, led policymaking patterns surrounding the Big Bang to differ radically from those dominating public policymaking in the past.
