The Logic of Japanese Politics
Was surprised I haven't added this yet. I love this book because it poses a challenge to the Nihonjinron discourse in the political aspect. For one, Curtis shatters a myth about Japanese political leaders' decision-making, wherein the decision-making process is said to be underpinned by harmony and consensus, and that this cannot be merely explained by cultural distinctiveness. I love how Curtis enlightens us how Japan's political leaders are very much like our own -like acting on their individual interests- and how they affect and are affected by the institutional context they weave through.
I also like the personal touch here. Or the first hand accounts and correspondents of Curtis with the political leaders, prime ministers included.
