日本の思想 By Masao Maruyama
Book の 思想 傾向 が
I can see why the last chapter is included in high school textbook A very passionate and persuasive call for active participation in politics which definitely can appeal to a large audience Especially if you consider the context in which this book or specifically these essays which were originally speeches was written which was around the end of the 50s and beginning of the 60s a time when Japan was in the process of introspection and was beginning to build its democracy these essays were well argued and served the purpose of advocating for democratization of the whole society. Book の 思想 を 具体 Some interesting ideas that stay true even to this day are democracy as a process meaning that democracy is based on active political participation of the citizens the danger of deifying ideologies meaning that there is no such thing as the Truth everything requires critical thinking and don t be fooled by political rhetoric no matter how good it sounded the importance of communication among different groups in society meaning info exchange respect for different people from different background and their experiences and knowledges are crucial for a healthy democracy. 日本の思想 要約 But honestly the book simplifies or ignores a lot of problem such as elements which discourage people from participating in politics like institutionalized discrimination conflicts among different social groups education that contributes to political complacency and horrible work life balance for the common individual that leaves them almost no time to think outside of their than packed daily schedule or the problems inherent in a representative democracy Basically the book emphasized that the responsibility of building and keeping democracy falls on the shoulder of the individual while didn t really talk about the responsibility and possible negative intervention of social institutions in a democratic system Not to mention the obvious Euro Americentric tone of the book which annoyed me sometimes For example he brought up US media during the 50s as an example of how social institutions should contribute to democracy Yeah right if you consider McCarthyism and FBI s manipulation the peak of democracy Despite all that I think it makes sense that these essays were structured in that way because they were speeches that served to persuade common people to believe that their opinions matter and that they need to participate in politics to protect their own rights Within such a framework I think Maruyama had done a terrific job at articulating his arguments And the book was actually kinda hilarious because you can tell from the writing style that Maruyama was salty as hell and he didn t hold back at grilling people he thought were simpleminded AT ALL And lastly I think Maruyama if he was still alived would be very disappointed at the current situation in Japan None of which he had hoped for is being exercised now Paperback Paperback
