Japan has remained a welfare laggard among advanced industrial democracies. Nevertheless, Japan showed the least income inequality during the 1970s. This fact suggests that Japan is different from the liberal welfare state, and that the Japanese case is the evidence against the legitimacy of the welfare state, which is to secure the social equity through state"s intervention. This study shows that the low social inequality was resulted from the government"s policies for the protection of small property owners and the expansion of public works as well as the life-time employment practice of the Japanese firms. Such policies and practice could be implemented only because neoliberal social forces were dominant for a long time in the Japanese society. Since people had to take part in the labor market to get equally treated, Japan exhibited the characteristics of the liberal welfare state.
