/ "18-year-old Voting Rights Change Politics!" This book contains a lecture on political science by a veteran professor who is well known on TV. It uses lots of pictures and diagrams to trace the history of democracy and explain the essence of the 18-year-old voting rights in an easy-to-understand way. In June 2015, the revised Public Offices Election Law, which lowers the voting age from the current 20 years old or older to 18 years old or older, was passed and enacted in the Diet. It will be applied from the House of Councillors election in July 2016, and approximately 2.4 million people aged 18 and 19 will become new voters. This book should be read especially by young voters when they think about elections and democracy. More than 60 pictures and illustrations are used to make it easy to understand.
