Fumio Goto was a Japanese politician and theoretician of the Japanese ultra-nationalist political movement during the 1920s and 1930s. He rose to some prominence during the early 1940s, while Fumimaro Konoye was Prime Minister of Japan.
Goto was president of the Showa Studies Society, a political think tank with a totalitarian focus. He was a colleague of Konoye, Fusanosuke Kuhara, and Count Yoriyasu Arima. Together, they conceived the Taisei Yokusankai, or Imperial Aid Association, the creation of which made Japan a one-party state.
