History

<span>
Japan emerged in 1853 from two and a half centuries of self-imposed peaceful isolation, but within a few decades the country’s leaders embarked on a policy of aggressive territorial expansion.  During the last half of the nineteenth century, the Western imperialist powers of England, France, and Germany established the model for acquisition of colonies in Asia and for the partition of China into spheres of influence.  Near the end of the century, about the same time Japan began to capture colonial territory, the United States and Russia also initiated their imperialistic expansion in Asia.This paper will examine four of the most influential theories of imperialism to determine whether they can provide explanations for Japan’s imperialism from 1894 to 1910, when Japan formally annexed Korea.  The four theories to be reviewed will be Hobson's theory of domestic market underconsumption that leads to capitalists seeking profits overseas, Lenin's theory of the monopoly stage of capitalism, Schumpeter's theory of inherited warlike tendencies from prior generations, and nationalism's focus on politics as the critical factor.  Although other theories of imperialism exist, these four theories cover a broad range of economic, political, and sociological factors that could explain Japan’s imperialistic expansion.  This essay's review of Japan's history of imperialism from 1894 to 1910 will show that the theory of nationalism provides the best explanations of the causes of Japan's militaristic actions and colonial acquisitions, although Schumpeter's sociological-based theory seems to provide some explanation for the actions of the Meiji Period (1868-1912) leaders.</span>

Explain the historical context for the issuing of the tokugawa laws of japan in 1634.
Snezhnost [94]

The 300,000 Catholics in Japan were severely persecuted as part of the Tokugawa shogunate's efforts to keep Christianity out of Japan.

Confucianism was promoted as the religion. Over the course of 250 years, the daimyo of Tokugawa Ieyasu ruled Japan, leading to the development of a new merchant class and an increase in urbanization. In order to guard against outside influence, they also attempted to isolate societies from Westernizing forces, particularly Christianity.In the early 17th century, Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu was able to win wars against other powerful lords and establish a nationwide military command in Japan.

He enforced Japan's isolation, prohibited contact with "foreign devils," reinforced Buddhism, and eradicated Christianity.While consolidating feudal systems, the Tokugawa era brought peace, stability, and prosperity to Japan.Was in effect until 1868.
