A comprehensive study of changing political thought during the tokugawa period, the book traces the philosophical roots of japanese modernization. Professor maruyama describes the role of sorai confucianism and norinaga shintoism in breaking the stagnant confines of chu hsi confucianism, the underlying political philosophy of the tokugawa feudal state. He shows how the new schools of thought created an intellectual climate in which the ideas and practices of modernization could thrive. Originally published in 1975.
