This 5 page report discusses the following statement: “Direct democracy is a poor mechanism for making sound public policy and should be reformed or eliminated.” The author argues that although direct democracy is considered a poor mechanism for creating meaningful and effective public policy, it does have its merits. In the context of policy-making, the process becomes more difficult when it is based on the processes of direct democracy. Nonetheless, there are still positive aspects of direct democracy and should not simply be dismissed. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

8 pages in length. Determining whether or not Japan can be described as a liberal democracy requires the assessment of a number of areas in order to ascertain the extent to which this might be true. Indeed, Japan has come a long way toward the notion of liberal democracy; however, it can be argued that this progression has only succeeded in reaching halfway to the ultimate goal, with a considerable length still to go. Looking at various entities -- including political institutions and practices, participation of the public in the political system and protest movements, effects of the media, effects of the bureaucracy and local government, dominance of the Liberal Democratic Party, as well as the 1993 election results -- one is bound to gain a clearer perspective upon the issue of Japan's move toward liberal democracy. The writer discusses to what extent Japan can be considered a liberal democracy. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
