The deeper agenda behind Japan’s “Abenomics”

“The policy known as ‘Abenomics’ is a mix of monetary easing, stimulative spending and growth-inducing steps including deregulation in sectors such as energy.  Some Abe allies worry that a hasty push for constitutional changes could upset voters who want the focus to stay firmly on the economy – repeating a mistake seen as a key factor in Abe’s first failed attempt to govern. ‘He wants to achieve what he left undone – to break free of the ‘post-war regime’,’ said Koichi Hagiuda, a lawmaker and special aide to Abe. ‘What is most symbolic of that is the constitution that was drafted in one short week under (U.S. General Douglas) MacArthur’s Occupation.'”
