A Study on the Legislative Process of the Japanese Liberal Democratic Party's Abe Cabinet Security Legislation Reform Bill : Focusing on Cabinet-Party-National Assembly

The purpose of this study is to clarify the characteristics of the Japanese legislative process on the premise that the floor party acts as a major legislative actor through party preliminary review system. In addition, a case analysis was conducted on the security legislation reform bill on how the party's preliminary review system operated in Japan, which adopted the three-pronged separation type parliamentary cabinet system. The preliminary review of the Liberal Democratic Party is a structure in which only bills that have been bound by the party are passed, and under a long-term power with a one-party advantage, a bill that has passed the internal review body can be finally prepared so that the cabinet can facilitate policy implementation. The continuity of policy implementation was high in that it was reflected in the security legislation reform bill, which had been prepared as the party's policy before the Liberal Democratic Party came to power in 2012. This can be seen as improving the rationality of the legislative process of the parliament in terms of procedures.
