Imperial Way Faction - Political development

Imperial Way Faction - Sadao Araki has his day

Araki Sadao was an important figurehead and "political and thinking father" of the party; his first ideological works date from his leadership of the Kodaha (Imperial Benevolent Rule or Action Group), opposed by the Toseiha (Control Group) led by General Kazushige Ugaki. He linked the ancient (bushido code) and contemporary local and European fascist ideals (Japanese fascism), to form the ideological basis of the movement (Showa nationalism).

From September 1932, the Japanese were becoming more locked into the course that would lead them into the Second World War and Araki was leading the way. Totalitarianism, militarism and expansionism were to become the rule and fewer voices would be able even to speak against it. In a September 23 news conference Araki first mentioned the philosophy of "Kodoha" (The Imperial Way). The concept of Kodo linked the Emperor, the people, land and morality as one and indivisible. This led to the creation of a "new" Shinto and increased Emperor worship.

Araki also devised Seishin Kyoiku (spiritual training) for the army and the Kikosaku security doctrine of the Kempeitai. The state was being transformed into a creation that served the Army and the Emperor, while the Army transformed into a fanatical force. Symbolically katana sword came back into fashion as the martial embodiment of these beliefs, and the Nambu pistol became its contemporary equivalent, with the implicit message that the Army doctrine of close combat would prevail.

See: Japanese central government (WWII)

Imperial Way Faction - Political structure in the movement

The Kodoha party, like any political movement, had a structure. The highest placed were the secretary general and supreme party leader (first Sadao Araki, later Hideki Tojo and Koiso Kuniaki) and their leading group or "directorate" (political cabinet). The most important founders and party associates included also Jinsaburo Mazaki, Heisuke Yanagawa, Hideyoshi Obata, Kazushige Ugaki, Gen Sugiyama, Yoshijiro Umezu, and Tetsuzan Nagata. Doctrines came also from the middle and lower party members (see Japanese doctrines in the Showa Period). Influence and contact with real power and central government institutions (and overseas also) was a constant concern.

Important institutional links were with the Imperial Young Federation, under Kingoro Hashimoto and the "Political Department" of the Kempeitai. Amongst the himitsu kessha (secret societies), the Kokuryu-kai (Black Dragon Society), and Kokka Shakai Shugi Gakumei (the National Socialist League) were close, and a source of less scrupulous supporters. The Tonarigumi (residents committee) groups, the Nation Service Society (national government trade union) and Imperial Farmers Association were all allied. The state religious and educational systems were also targets. Direct links with Army and Navy political sections supported the formation of similar right-wing movements in all the occupied lands of the early Pacific War.

Imperial Way Faction - The last party chiefs and Prime Ministers

The final party chiefs and Prime Ministers were Koiso Kuniaki and Kantaro Suzuki, in 1944-45. The former was from the fall of Saipan in summer 1944, and the latter from the Japanese defeat in the Battle of Okinawa.
