Japanese Nationalists
Japanese nationalism is a form of nationalism that asserts the belief that the Japanese people, Japanese are a monolithic nation with a single immutable culture. Over the last two centuries, it has encompassed a broad range of ideas and sentiments. It is useful to distinguish Japanese cultural nationalism from political or state nationalism, since many forms of cultural nationalism, such as those which are associated with Japanese folklore, folkloric studies, have been hostile to state-fostered nationalism. In Meiji era, Meiji Japan, nationalist ideology consisted of a blend of native and imported political philosophies, initially developed by the Meiji government to promote national unity and patriotism, first in defense against colonization by Western powers, and later in a struggle to attain equality with the Great power, Great Powers. It evolved throughout the Taishō period, Taishō and Shōwa periods, and was used to justify increasingly extreme ideology, such as fascism, ...
