Haraguchi, Takaaki
- Abstract
The article provides a historical assessment of Japanese Christian theologian Tadao Yanaihara's view of the country during the Wartime Period, the Transitional Period and the Period Under the New Constitution. Yanaihara emphasized the need to learn from Christianity to nurture the democratic spirit with a critical mind and with a sense of personal responsibility. The author offers a critical assessment of the prevailing view that Yanaihara remained loyal to the Emperor in the post-war era.
