I rise to the definition that the 'kingship' of Tony Blair would mean that he has a strong influence on the country of Japan, resembling that of a monarch. Conceeding that Japan has a parliamentary form of govt, it cannot be denied that its King has a say on political and social matters affecting the country. With that, I contend that Tony Blair does the similar thing: act like a monarch who feels that he can influence and perhaps, and approval of the citizens to hold the Japanese nation and it's economy just like a monarch. Such is the metaphor that Japan may not even have the will to resist, as much as would any nation dare defy globalization unless it is socialist or communist. His 'kingship' transcends the assumed definition taken in by the opposition. Blair, under the tenets of globalization, already acts as king to many nations under the claws of capitalist nations. With that I end my arguments. P.S. Good that the proposition is that he is a 'king' and not a 'queen'.
