Sadafumi Kawato
Sadafumi Kawato is a professor emeritus at the University of Tokyo, known for his expertise in political science and gender studies. He has commented on the implications of women's participation in Japanese politics, particularly in the context of the recent leadership race within the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP). Kawato has noted that while the election of a female prime minister, such as Sanae Takaichi, would signify progress, it may not necessarily lead to significant changes in patriarchal norms or gender equality in Japan, which ranks poorly in global gender gap indices.
