Kishida has pushed back against the neoliberal "Abenomics" of the past decade, instead touting a "new capitalism" that emphasizes greater distribution of wealth to boost growth, although details have been thin.
Pushed back against Neo-liberalism meaning embraced whole-heartedly from subsidies to oil companies to austerity for the public.

"Two-time prime minister Abe leads the LDP's biggest faction and remains a domineering presence over the party."
I wonder if Abe's murder will leave a power vacuum, and enable Kishida to exert himself more?
