日本はやはり中選挙区制に戻すべきだろう。
BBCの写真はヒットラーを連想させる。
しかし中選挙区制の下での自民党は様々な考えをもつおのたちの集まりだったのだ。
その結果が、新進党を生み出して分裂ということになり、自民党与党が下野するということを招いた。
西洋的な二大政党は必要ではない。
むしろ多様な意見をもった自民党一党の中での派閥政治が欧米の二大政党制と同じ機能をもつのだ。

Japan election: Exit polls project landslide win for Shinzo Abe
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-30444230Exit polls suggest that the party of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has secured a large majority in the country's parliamentary elections.

Mr Abe had called a snap poll to boost support for his economic reforms.

He was elected in 2012 and has tried to revive the economy by raising public spending and printing money.

After an initial burst of growth, Japan slipped back into recession in the second half of this year.

Despite exit polls showing Mr Abe's conservative Liberal Democratic Party ahead, analysts said it would probably fall short of a two-thirds majority - meaning it was likely to remain in coalition with junior partner Komeito.

Reports said turnout at polling stations was low due to voter apathy and heavy snowfall. Preliminary results are expected at midnight local time (15:00 GMT).

Japan is the third-largest economy in the world, according to the World Bank, but it has struggled in recent years.

Mr Abe has insisted that his policies, known as "Abenomics", can get Japan back on track.•••
