Radicalization of the British Labour Party formally coincided with the still continuing period of economic downturn, but it was a matter of internal changes of 1981 within the party which its activist strata had wanted all along. The labour Party might be viewed as an instance of radicalization as a result of a power shift from the parliament Labour Party to Labour conference (constituency activists). And the single ascertainable cause of quick radicalization of the Japanese Socialist Party(JSP) was the convention rule change of 1959, at the very time when the nation had achieved such recovery from the devastation of war and was about to enter a period of even more astonishing growth toward international economic superstardom. The principal cause of the JSP's radicalization was the shift of power of leadership selection from the parliamentary JSP t its extraparliamentary organizations, that is, the constituency JSP. Therefore, it does seem that the most crucial and immediate cause of radicalization of the British Labour Party and the Japanese Socialist Party is internal to the party concerned (Intraparty Democracy)
