The Effects Of The Governmental Transition Towards Educational Policies In 21^st Century

After the onset of 21st century, Japan has exchanged their cabinet six times within the period of less than nine years. Not only is this factor shocking for Japan itself but it is also unusual within majority of the MEDC (More Economically Developed Countries).There is a proverb which states that it takes ten years to grow a tree and a century to raise a human. However, well developed human resources are the foundation to flourish a nation; because of the unstable government and governmental demands, an educational policy which affects an individual's future is often unsteady in the situation of frequent cabinet transition. This devastation is also causing to delay the process of enforcing aforementioned policies.The researching objective of this paper focuses upon the abnormal cabinet transition, as well as the change of the "Basic of Education Law" in 2006 for the first time after 60 years since the war; by applying original resources in Japanese, with The Liberal-Democratic Party political power which has been in control of the Japanese government for over 60 years post-war. It also analyzes the change within the Japanese educational policies tied with the historical backgrounds; the effects of Japanese government, as well as the governmental transitions, leading to the creation and the enforcement of the educational policies.The researching procedure of this paper consists of documental research, systematic analyze method, and case-study method which are effectively used, with the basis of original resources, to analyze the effects of governmental transition towards educational policies from three different directions.The first topic discusses educational policies introduced during the past 60 years by The Liberal-Democratic Party and its governmental backgrounds, which are thoroughly organized into a timeline; especially the six governmental transitions since the 21st century, which are compared and analyzed. This also leaves a primary translated original resource for further research in this field.Secondly, the paper follows through the process of the ABE Cabinet establishment, which was also referred to as the Education Cabinet, to its end. It also inspects the historical occurrence of amending the "Basic of Education Law". It compares and analyzes the differences of the new "Basic of Education Law" now and then, which will lead to a further investigation of the reality of law-amending and the veracity of the Japanese educational policies' creation and implement through such occurrence.The conclusion would focus on the current ASO Cabinet's lost governing as well as the possibility of another election in front of our eyes. It would compare and analyze the Liberal-Democratic Party with other governmental party's manifesto and will hypothesize the result of Japanese educational policies from the new governmental development.
