	Japan - The Electoral System
		Partly as a result of revelations following the Recruit scandal of 1988-89, the problem of political funding was intensely debated during the late 1980s and early 1990s.
		The scandal arose as a result of the dealings of Ezoe Hiromasa, the ambitious chairman of the board of the Recruit Corporation (a professional search service that had diversified into finance and real estate and had become involved in politics), who sold large blocks of untraded shares in a subsidiary, Recruit Cosmos, to seventy-six individuals.

	JPRI Working Paper No. 34

In the immediate aftermath of Yoshida's intervention, prosecutors were criticized almost as harshly as the meddlesome politicians.
		In the Recruit scandal of the late 1980s, for example, the secretaries of Takeshita Noboru and Miyazawa Kiichi used their bosses' name-stamps to authorize illegal stock transactions.
		Indeed, considering the unusually large 'gap' in Japan between scandalous political conduct and specifically indictable offenses, it is noteworthy that prosecutors have been able to charge as many members of parliament as they have.
