What characterized the politics and cultural life of early Japan

One of the features of Japanese culture is its long development during the period of complete isolation of the country (sakoku policy) from the rest of the world under the reign of the Tokugawa shogunate, which lasted until the mid-19th century - the beginning of the Meiji period.

Culture, experience, traditions have enabled Japanese society to function smoothly, not only at the level of domestic systems, but also at the level of reproduction of national spiritual values.

The national-cultural conditionality of the political traditions of Japanese society is manifested in the patriarchal-paternalistic beginning of power, which determined the norms of patronizing, individually responsible political action, in the idea of Kokutai - the national essence and the divinity of the origin of the state, which contributed to the strengthening of nationalist tendencies. The features of group consciousness have consolidated in political traditions such concepts as a sense of duty to the people, uncertainty that performs the function of a compromise, steady adherence to the political course, and persistence in achieving political goals.
