Profusely illuminated with hundreds of photos and images of maps, woodcut prints, and paintings. Suggested for mature readers.

Boutmy, Studies in Constitutional Law, p 50. the most beautiful phenomenon in the history of mankind," is largely due to the elasticity of the English Constitution. Bagehot calls this elastic feature of the English Constitution the "safety-valve" and says, "It lets forth a dangerous accumulation of inhibited power which might sweep this Constitution before it as like accumulations have often swept away like Constitutions."1 One of the chief reasons why the Constitution set up by the Articles of the Confederation of 1777 in the United States was completely thrown out, was that it lacked 1/ practical amending power, or had no efficient "safetyvalve," though the object of making amendment difficult was to prevent the central government from encroaching on the rights of the several States.2 The lack of an efficient "safety-valve" in a Constitution causes, unless the community is stationary, a "dangerous accumulation of inhibited powers," which is likely to result either in the overthrow of the Constitution or in the stagnation of society. Article LXXIII. of the Constitution of Japan provides that "when it has become necessary in future to amend the provision of the present Constitut1on, a project to that effect shall be submitted to the Imperial Diet by Imperial Order. In this case, neither House can open the debate, unless not less than two-thirds of the whole number of members are present, and no amendment can be passed unless a majority of not less than two-thirds of the members present is obtained."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is a freaking great book and I highly recommend it…if you are passionate about the history of 'the world's greatest city,' this book is something you must have in your collection." --JapanThis.com Edward Seidensticker's A History of Tokyo 1867-1989 tells the fascinating story of Tokyo's transformation from the Shogun's capital in an isolated Japan to the largest and the most modern city in the world. With the same scholarship and sparkling style that won him admiration as the foremost translator of great works of Japanese literature, Seidensticker offers the reader his brilliant vision of an entire society suddenly wrenched from an ancient feudal past into the modern world in a few short decades, and the enormous stresses and strains that this brought with it. Originally published as two volumes, Seidensticker's masterful work is now available in a handy, single paperback volume. Whether you're a history buff or Tokyo-bound traveler looking to learn more, this insightful book offers a fascinating look at how the Tokyo that we know came to be. This edition contains an introduction by Donald Richie, the acknowledged expert on Japanese culture who was a close personal friend of the author, and a preface by geographer Paul Waley that puts the book into perspective for modern readers.
