Militarism-Socialism:
If refering to another rigth-wing variant of socialism theories,of japanese origin,during 1920s to Showa period.this thinking are the mixing of radical nationalist rigth-wing and militarist ideas with state socialism developed by local contemporary political philosophers and thinkers.
In other words this radical ideology are the final stage of local rigth socialism,with roots of own basic socialism in Meiji period,derived from blend of basic western socialism by western christian missionaires,certain proto-socialists japanese thinking precedents(miken movement),ancient militarist ideals(bushi-do code),christian socialism,populism,sindicalism and some radical anarchism,along nationalist rigth-wing thinking.one certain possibly denomination at these rigth-wing political thinking are "Japanism" or "Japanese rigth-socialist political way".
Bases and origins of Japanese Rigth Socialism
these political doctrine,are one extreme development of japanese state socialism,Kita Ikki s radical socialist thinking,along some militarists doctrines. but also divided in Japanese navy and Japanese army ideal branches,in particular the last poses some similarities with radical fascist variant of german nazism doctrines.preciselly this think if the ideological "core" or "spirit" of Japanese nationalism thinking during showa period to 1945.
himself in your book Nihon kaizo hohan taiko (General Plan for National Reorganization of Japan),proposed a military coup d'état to promote the supposed true aims of the Meiji restoration. This book was banned, but certain military circles read in it in the early 1930s.
In this ideology if observed some elements of social darwinism,german state socialism, anarchism,from Meiji times mixed with radical militarist and traditionalists ideas.
following your lines was phrased in terms of freeing the Emperor from weak and treasonous counsellors. After suspending the Constitution, and dissolving the Diet, the Emperor and his military defenders should work for a "collectivist direct voluntarism" to unify people and leaders. Harmony with the working classes would be sought by the abolition of the aristocracy and austerity for the Imperial House.
Rigth socialism,Japanese military and political actions
The Japanese Navy was in general terms more traditionalist, in defending ancient values and the sacrality of the Emperor; the Japanese Army was more forward-looking, in the sense of valuing primarily strong leadership, as is evidenced by the use of the coup and direct action. The Navy typically preferred political methods. The Army, ultimately, was the vehicle for the anticapitalists, hypernationalists, anticommunists, antiparliamentarians, extreme sight-Socialists and nationalist- militarists ideals,leaving at extremes more far why european counterparts.
the first defend the sacrality of japanese emperor and guiving importance at ancient political thinking and are radical defenders of national religion and culture;at contrary the second poses innovative ideas,theirs defend the propose of some military or civil porwerfull dictatorship,with unique nationalist and radical party along powerfull army for take the power in elections or by force in coup d etats or another violent methods.
The Japanese military were considered politically
"clean"in terms of political corruption, and assumed
responsibility for 'restoring' the security of
the nation, too. The armed forces took up
criticism of the traditional democratic parties
and regular government for many reasons
(low funds for the armed forces, compromised
national security, weakness of the leaders).
They were also, by their composition, closely
aware of the effects of economic depression
on the middle and lower classes, and the
communist threat.
Rigth Socialist and Military topics
One area of very importance for these thinkers stay in development of national armed forces and military industry and tecnology,for poses the most powerfull Army in line with national defense and overseas conquest plans.theirs proposed measures for composed some laws for national mobilization ,rearm and militarization of country in accord with overseas conquests operations.along these measures same ideologist analized the important question of military economy and finances for support the own war machine,joining at your private zaibatsu and militarist followers.
the maxime representation of blend of rigth-wing nationalist thinking with ancient military Bushi-do code and Samurai traditions in use of military neededs stay in Admiral Takijiro Ohnishi brainchild idea of Kamikaze defensive tactics.
Rigth Socialism,Conquest plans and strategies
Overseas,Japan would free Asia of Western influence. joining of own expansioninst ideas along national security strategy against western and soviet powers. under these lines,theirs preparing your conquests doctrines.some ideolgist how Hachiro Arita and Kanji Ishiwara,working in these thinking question and traced the future japanese conquest ideals.
Both branches gained in power as they administered the exterior provinces and military preparations; the Japanese Army controlled specially northem and continental areas:Karafuto,Kuriles islands,Kwantung leased territoires,Chosen,Hokkaido.in other hand Japanese Navy managed southern sea areas:Kyushu, Shikoku,Ryu-Kyu islands,Bonin,Minamitori Shima (marcus)island,Iwo Jima,Taiwan,Nan-yo(South Pacific Mandate),Izo Sishito,Daito Islands, more later Hainan,Paracel islands,Crescend islands,Flat,Amboina,Danger,Low Tizard and Spratly islands.in both cases respective armed branches approved these lands in beneficts of your influence sphere and future conquest plans.
Rigth socialism thinking development
these doctrines continuing in your developed with certains thinkers, how Fumio Goto,Yoriyasu Arima, himself readed some radical marxists works of Karl Marx and Max Stirner, Fumimaro Konoye and Fusanosuke Kuhara supported by german fascist ideals,treated to organized one more radical thinking with some army officers support,for take the power and installing one more radical dictatorship and the suppose japanese equivalent of german nazi party with your onw radical doctrine for administered japan.these intent of coup d etat failing ,but these ideological work continuing in triad conformed by Hideki Tojo,Yosuke Matsuoka and Naoki Hoshino,for added these thinking to your nationalists ideal sources.
Some ideologyst how Kingoro Hashimoto, retaken the socialists justice ideas mixed with militarism,when proposed a Nationalist single party dictatorship, based on equal and popular socialism in benefict of low masses.The militarists had strong industrial support,but also socialist-nationalist sentiments on the part of radical officers, aware of poor farmers and workers who wanted social justice,think remembered for thinker previously mentioned.
others important personages and nationalist thinkers how Prince Chichibu,Yoshio Kodama Ryoichi Sasakawa or Kaya Okinori analized the nationalist question and sended your apports too.theirs and others are the some link with Yakuza and others delictive organizations.
Rigth Socialism in next with economy,culture and education
these thinkers continuing in these development and added others elements how the conformation of national government central syndicate, organization of national information entity, the national government young association reinforzed national education(question analized by Sadao Araki when are Education Minister) and National religion state policies,national doctrine ideological bases for armed forces(with link of Kempeitai ideological department,and other ideological work realizing by same thinker in contemporary adaptation of Bushi-do code in new military training doctrines for armed forces),reinforced of own State socialism nationalist ideology and added some fascist elements of managed the industry,commerce and localfinances in beneficts of military and your local industrialist zaibatsu followers how Ichizo Kobayashi and Chozo Murata.
The principal educational emphasis was
on the great importance of traditional
national political values, religion and
morality. This prevailed from the Meiji
period. The Japanese state modernized
organizationally, but preserved its
national idiosyncrasies. Japan was to
be a powerful nation, equal at least
to the Western powers, an attitude
reinforced from 1905. During the Showa
period the educational system was
used for militarist radical ideologies
,supporting the militarised state
and preparing future soldiers.Native
Japanese culture was highly promoted,
and martial arts became pervasive.The
"New Asia Day" celebration was to
remember the sacred mission of
extending influence to nearby
Asian nations.
The official academic text was Kokutai no Hongi ("Japan's Fundamentals of National Policy"), presenting a view of Japan's history, and its mission to unite the East and West. The "moral national Bible" The Subject's Way presented an effective catechism on nation, religion, cultural, social and ideological topics. All citizens needed to have it.
Apart of regular nationalist education ,children and school students received military drills (on weapons, hand-to- hand combat, survival, first aid).These were taken further by the Imperial Japanese Young Federation or Imperial Young Corps(comparable to the Hitler Youth Association); college students were trained, and some recruited for home defense and regular military units. Young women received First Aid training. Children and young people worked in weapons factories.
these thinking more later added another ideas how analisis of nationalism for implement in education,the racial purity and eugenics topic ,return to ancient values and own culture,the return to ancient military costumes and codes some empress colectivization and nationalization.
Rigth Socialist Doctrines
in parallel with previous works,these thinkers developed some ideals how The Amau Doctrine (the Asian Monroe Doctrine) stated that Japan assumed the total responsibility for peace in Asia. Minister Hirota proclaimed "a special zone, anti-communist, pro-Japanese and pro-Manchukuo" and that Northern China was a "fundamental part" of Japanese national existence, in announcing a "holy war" against the Soviet Union and China as the "national mission".
During 1940 Prince Konoe proclaimed the Shintaisen (New National Structure), making Japan into an "advanced state of National Defense", and the creation of the Tasei Yokusankai (Imperial Authority Assistance Association), for organizing a centralized "consensus state".Associated are the government creation of the Tonarigumi (residents' committees). Other ideological creations of the time were the book The Subject's Way, the "Imperial Way" or "War Party" (Kodoha) Army party, the "Yamato Spirit" (Yamato damaishii), and the idea of "eight squares of the World" (Hakko Ichiu) and "Religion and Government Unity" (Saisei itchi).
Rigth Socialist thinking and State religion question
State Shinto placed emphasis on the idea that the "center of Phenomenal World is Tenno." From that center, the doctrine dictated that subjects should spread the idea of the great spirit around the world. Thus began ideas of Japanese territorial expansion.
Certain shinto thinkers and support of japanese state shinto religion how Heisuke Yanagawa,Chikao Fujuzawa, Kuniaki Koizo,Kiichiro Hiranuma and Prince Kanin,developed in dept the State-Religion links topic,in relation with rigth-wing and nationalist thinking.
This is the religious ideology which formed the basis for emperor worship and the Shinto State religion: the Divine Emperor was descended directly from Amaterasu Omikami, the National God who protects the country. All proclamations of the emperor took on religious significance; for instance, in 1882, the Meiji Emperor made an "Imperial Rescript to Seamen and Soldiers" ,from this time considered sacred and obligatory.
Rigth Socialism and Politics
under these basis,the radical ideologist Sadao Araki and others founded the Kodoha (Imperial way) Party,one rigth-wing movement,acase japanese possibly development of japanese fascist thinking and equivalent of european fascist parties,were these ideas are conformed in similar lines for gaining the power by elections or by force if necesaire. along these movement exist some nationalist societies with similar thinking and japanese Army realizing frequent coup d etats in following your own radical line before and during pacific war period.
The "New Structure" political government ,are in your origin one collective structure,conformed this form: Nobility and Aristocracy (Mombatsu);Commercial and Industrialist(Zaibatsu);and great landowners and Military (Gumbatsu),along the raising of Yasukuni Jinja how center of the new theologyc-patriotic-nationalist sense.
These sistem taken some elements of Militarism-Socialism thinking for your political ideological enviroment too. Japanese citizens were rallied to the "Defensive State" or "Consensus State", in which all efforts of the nation supported collective objectives, by guidance from national myths, history and dogmas, obtaining a "national consensus" following Japanese rigth socialism politic way lines.
in this situation,the central figure was the Tenno, the emperor, as had been the case from the Meiji constitution onwards, coexisting with the interests of the official establishment and personified the nationalists sense along religious interest how gods descendent.
About who really held the political power in Japan, there are some versions. One says that real control was exerted by the Emperor over the military; the other validates the "trinity" mentioned above.
There is also the 'realist' position, denying politics as a factor: real control did lie with the military, behind a front formed by the Emperor and Government.
Summary
more later these ideas are more developed in depth and integrated to Showa Nationalism ideology during pacific wartimes in all aspects of Japanese Empire,japanese civil society ,central government policies and armed forces, puppet states of own creation how Manchukuo and japanese held-lands,until august 1945.some informations sayed about along this "official finish" of these ideology activities,certain Showa nationalism followers,represent by Japanese Army continuing the last-stand figth,against Allied forces represent for Russian Red Army,in defense of Japanese Empire soil in Konan fortress,Chosen(Korea) Province,until November 1945.
In present days,one possibly political heir are the NSJAP(National Socialist Japanese Workers' Party, the abbreviation is in German, Nationalsozialistische Japanische Arbeiterpartei) and somes nationalist local groups in country why continuing in minor scale these thinking work,in line of return to japanese nationalism in contemporary times.
