In this paper, I examine the sources and nature of DC’s political hegemony from a comparative perspective, drawing upon insights from another case of single-party dominance, the Liberal Democratic Party in postwar Japan. I will contend that clientelism has been particularly significant as a distinctive feature of DC and of Italian politics in general. Furthermore, I investigate how patronage and one-party dominance were interrelated and mutually-reinforcing. In short, I will aim to study DC dominance in Italy through the conceptual framework of clientelism in order to better understand Italy’s political development from the second half of the 20th century.}, pages = {141--157}, title = {One-Party Dominance in Postwar Italy : A Comparative Look with Japan}, volume = {116}, year = {2022}, yomi = {ツダ, タロウ} }
