When universal male suffrage was introduced in 1925, this relatively progressive act was counterbalanced by passage of a so-called Peace Preservation Law designed to strengthen the government’s hand against radical or allegedly “subversive” political organizations. Although this repressive law was applied with increasing severity in the years that followed, the small selection of posters here calls attention to the resilience and persistence of anti-establishment parties into the mid 1930s.
