A world history of how Japan sought its path to national development in the midst of crisis

1852-1912 In 1853, U.S. Navy Commodore Matthew Perry led a fleet into Uraga on the shores of Edo Bay (present-day Tokyo Bay) to negotiate with the Tokugawa shogunate. Many Japanese awakened after the knock of the black ships and tried to overthrow the shogunate and establish a new regime. The Meiji Restoration was a political revolution in Japan in the 19th century, which overthrew the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate and implemented major political, economic, and social reforms, promoting the modernization and Westernization of Japan.

The main leaders of the Meiji Restoration were young samurai who sought to build a country on a par with the West under the slogan "Rich Country, Strong Army." In 1871, the feudal prefecture was abolished, destroying all feudal regimes. In the same year, a new standing army was formed.

In 1873, a national compulsory military system was introduced and the agricultural tax was reformed. In addition, the currency has been harmonized. Meiji** introduced a cabinet system in 1885, followed by a constitution the following year, a constitution was promulgated in 1889, and the first Diet was convened in 1890.

Political reforms were accompanied by economic and social reforms. The main goal of Meiji** was to achieve industrialization. The military industry, as well as the transportation industry, have developed greatly.

The first railroad was built in 1872, and a new bank was established in 1882. By the beginning of the 20th century, the goals of the Meiji Restoration had been largely accomplished, and Japan had become an Asian power, the only imperialist power in the East.

At that time, Japan was actually garrisoned by the United States. The Japanese are very repulsive. But later.

They found out that there was help from the Americans. There has been a qualitative leap in their economic strength and scientific and technological strength. The United States helped Japan rebuild after the war.

Helping Japan's scientific and technological research and development. Japan, on the other hand, began to rely on the technology it had learned from the United States and Europe to carry out technological reforms. Avoid the weakness of domestic resource scarcity.

Shift to an export economy. Import cheap resources from countries such as Southeast Asia. and the production of high-tech technical products.

Intellectual Property Rights and Copyrights. It is then sold to Southeast Asia and other countries. It has played quite well in the field of technology and electronics.

When it has gained a firm foothold in the field of science and technology of a strong country. Japan has a lot of strength. Naturally, it comes naturally.

You know, before 1999. Japan's Toyota dominates the world... As a result, the U.S. imposed ** sanctions and other factors caused Japan's economy to begin to stagnate.

Now it is overly dependent on China's economic chain. There are not many heroes anymore...

The United States supports and vigorously develops education.

The Nikkei 225 reached an all-time high at the end of December 1989 and then began to decline sharply, with the Nikkei 225 almost halving by September 1990. It is generally said that there was a bubble economy in Japan at the end of the 80s (real estate, **), but if you ask which year the crisis broke out, it was in 1990. (I haven't seen that mentioned that before, though.)

The most important impacts:

First, economic stagnation. There have been two "lost decades".

Second, continued deflation. The degree of deflation is the highest in the world.

Now it's all up to the ** to save the Japanese economy.

In fact, the reason for the economic crisis in Japan is mainly caused by the incomplete reforms since the Meiji Restoration, and the situation in Japan is the same as that in China, both of which are agricultural countries, and most of the people are farmers and fishermen, but most of the fields in Japan are occupied by landlords, and the phenomenon of land annexation is serious, and a large number of landless peasants have no choice but to leave their hometowns and move into the cities, which promotes the development of urbanization in Japan, and the peasants who have moved to the cities have become workers in new enterprises, and it can be said that a large amount of wealth in Japan since the Meiji Restoration has been in the hands of a small number of chaebols, landlords, and capitalists Politicians in the hands of the military.

As a result of the economic crisis, the fascist warlords of the Showa warlord with fascist overtones, the military headquarters headed by Emperor Hirohito stepped onto the stage of history, and the fascists headed by Emperor Hirohito actively pursued a policy of internal imprisonment and foreign aggression created the September 18 Incident on September 18, 1931, which invaded and occupied Northeast China, and diverted domestic contradictions through foreign aggression. In 1932, the military department planned and created the May 15 Incident, which completely eradicated the anti-war cabinet and firmly held the Japanese military and political power in its own hands.

1. Japan has not been plagued by an economic crisis, but has been in a crisis and has not come out of it for more than 20 years!

2. Japan mainly relies on product exports, but low-end products are occupied by Chinese products, mid-end products are competitive by Taiwan, Singapore products, and high-end and Korean products. As a result, Japan's export capacity has declined significantly.

3. Japan also has relatively large advantages in environmental protection, digital cameras, high-end electronics, environmentally friendly cars, lathes, molds, shipbuilding, etc., but the unemployment rate is too high, and the cost of pension is too high. It would be nice if Japan could maintain the status quo.

In the case of a bad global economy, it is difficult to earn foreign exchange by exporting, and China's ability to export goods in the international market is not very good, the most important thing is to start from the country and let its citizens use their money for consumption to the greatest extent to promote the normal operation of national enterprises and factories.

Are you referring to that time 100 years ago?

The way to deal with this is to expand ...

Hello: the expansion of bourgeois rule; The Washington system gradually collapsed, and the Axis bloc was formed; Japan has become the second largest economic power in the capitalist world, which has accelerated the trend of multipolarization of the economic structure of the capitalist world (the emergence of a three-legged situation in the capitalist world).

If mine is helpful to you, please select it as a satisfactory answer in time, o(o thank you.

1: Internationally, she is still an economic power, but there is no military threat, even if the injured Japan still happens to rely on itself.

2: Domestically, since all the energy was put into the economy after the defeat of the war, even if it was a recession, the whole people still relied on economic and liberal and prudent relief.

In the struggle. Don't think that Japan is small, a big country of 130 million, and it can be self-sufficient.

3: The society is still stable, and there seem to be less than 10,000 people in prisons in the country.

4: Unless the people are in trouble in the country, the rest of the people are quite indifferent to current affairs, and I have asked many Japanese (non-** districts) recently

They don't feel anything.
