内容記述 | We stand at a historical milestone that marks 150 years from the Meiji Restoration of 1868, during which Japan radically changed its national polity in the face of the advance of Western powers and set itself on the path to dokuritsu jison (independence and self-respect). After its defeat in the Second World War, Japan joined forces with Western countries in the construction of a liberal world order based on such values as freedom, democracy, and the rule of law. It is correct to say that an end to fighting signifies an end to war in that armed conflict between nations ceases, but a true end to war takes more than this. Peace must be established among the warring nations, and this requires the completion of certain processes of postwar settlement, without which the war is not over. Only now are we able to reflect on our past perception of history not for the purposes of self-criticism and apology, but to chart our future course. The phrase that comes to mind in describing Japan 150 years from the Meiji Restoration is “independence and self-respect,” the philosophy of the noted Meiji thinker Yukichi Fukuzawa. This slogan of Fukuzawa is as important to Japan 150 years from Meiji as it was to Meiji Japan. The critical difference with Meiji Japan is that this independence and self-respect is to be realized within the development of the liberal world order. | |||||
