The Party for Future Generations (次世代の党, Jisedai No Tou) is a Japanese political party. It was formed on 1 August 2014 by a group of Diet members led by Shintarō Ishihara.
History
The Japan Restoration Party was formed in 2012 and was led by Tōru Hashimoto and Ishihara. In May 2014 Hashimoto and Ishihara announced that the party had agreed to split due to disagreement over a merger with another opposition party, the Unity Party. Ishihara's faction left the JRP to form the Party for Future Generations, which registered as a party on 1 August 2014.
The party suffered a near-wipeout at the 47th general election, collapsing from 19 seats to two. Ishihara lost his seat and announced his retirement from politics.
Policies
The policies are "a mix of conservative security policies, stricter immigration laws and advocacy of traditional values on the one hand, and 'liberalism' in economic areas on the other, such as pursuing regulatory reform."
