Nobusuke Kishi
Nobusuke Kishi was a prominent Japanese politician who served as Prime Minister from 1957 to 1960. He was a key figure in post-war Japan and played a significant role in shaping the country’s economic policies and foreign relations during the Cold War. Kishi was a member of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and was instrumental in Japan's alignment with the United States against communism. His tenure was marked by controversial policies, including the revision of the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty, which sparked widespread protests. Kishi's legacy is complex, as he is often credited with contributing to Japan's rapid economic growth while also being associated with the political establishment that faced criticism for its ties to various interest groups, including the Unification Church.
