How the tables have turned

EVERY domination bears within itself the seeds of its own destruction. The fall from power of once dominant political parties (and they can rise again), such as the LDP in Japan, the KMT in Taiwan, the Congress Party in India, and the PRI in Mexico, shows that the exercise of power by its very nature eventually leads to a process of disintegration of the ruling group.

The dictates of power alienate the dominant party’s electoral support base and create factions and frictions within itself that leads to its own decline.
