Showa Statism

Showa Statism also called Showa Nationalism and shortened Showaism was an authoritarian, culturally far-right, economically right-leaning and expansionist ideology which was practiced in Japan during the first half of the reign of Emperor Showa (who was called Hirohito at the time).

Beliefs
Due the fact that Showa Japan was militarily allied with the Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy, Showa Statism is usually taken to be a type of Fascism, although this is disputed.
