National Socialist Japanese Workers and Welfare Party
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The National Socialist Japanese Workers and Welfare Party is a Japanese political party that campaigns on a platform of Neo-Nazism.
Founded in 1982, the party is also known as 国家社会主義日本労働者党 Kokka Shakaishugi Nippon Rōdōsha-Tō (in Japanese) or Nationalsozialistische Japanische Arbeiterpartei (in German). It is possible that the Kokka Shakaishugi Gakumei (the National Socialist League), a National Socialist organization formed in the 1940s, is a direct political ancestor. Other ideological roots are found in Kita Ikki, Nakano Seigo, Sadao Araki and the Kodoha party; the most important Japanese Nazi ideologists in the World War II period. The party celebrates the empire of Japan[1] and its alliance with the Third Reich.[2] It is not a significant force in Japanese politics.

The party believes in a corporatist state, with a return to the Shogun system as an indigenous take on National Socialist principles of leadership. It is virulently anti-Semitic, and believes in an international Jewish conspiracy employing Freemasonry to control Japan. The party believes in the principles of Turanism (pan-Altaic) that looks for unity with other groups from the "Turanid" or Altaic racial origins, such as Koreans; Mongols; the Turkic peoples of Turkey, Central Asia and Russia; Hungarians; and even the Finns and Estonians.[3]. They have expressed support for other Asian nations against the People's Republic of China. "Our Geopolitical plan for the Freedom of East Asia is based upon the alliance of Manchuria, Tibet [4], Uyghur, Taiwan (Formosa), Mongolia and Japan" [6]. Their theories allow them to be placed within the wider context of the Eurasianism that forms a part of National Bolshevism.
Parallel to Holocaust denial, the party has called the Nanking Massacre "a lie" and disputed the accuracy of Iris Chang's The Rape of Nanking.[5] The party has voiced support for repressed neo-Nazis around the world, including jailed German Marcus Bischoff[6] and NSDAP/AO leader Gerhard Lauck.[7] The party's website includes links to National Socialist sites worldwide.[8]
