Potential for Future Shifts

If then DPJ or a similar reformist party were to return to o power, Japan might see a renewed push for untying aid and integrating it with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).

Konkluzja: Political Parties as the Architects of Japan 's Global Footprint

Japon 's aid policies are merely technocratic documents drafted by biurokrats; they ary thee product of decades of political bargaining, ideologiy, and electoral calcus.
