Japan on course to elect woman prime minister in landmark first
Over the last two decades, Japan has had over ten prime ministers.
In fact, a specialist compares assuming the country's top job to taking a "cursed cup".
However, what is the reason does Japan frequently replace prime ministers? This is partly because of it being a "one-party democracy", says Professor James Brown of Temple University Japan.
The Liberal Democratic Party's control on the political landscape means the primary rivalry comes from within the party, rather than from external parties.
"So within the LDP there are vicious struggles within different factions - they all want their own clique to secure the leadership position."
"Thus although you might be chosen as leader, the moment you're in power, you have many individuals scheming to try to remove you again."
Main Reasons Behind Rapid Turnover
- One-party dominance restricts external competition
- Party infighting fuel leadership contests
- The leadership role is often described as a "cursed position"
- Government continuity stays elusive despite financial power
