This book is a comprehensive account of the nativist movement in Japan today.

He reveals the logic behind the emergence of the nativist movement by highlighting its links with developments in the existing right wing and Japans conservative powers. A common interest in historical revisionism and conflict with neighboring countries provides a further logic that underpins the nativist movements particular focus on special privileges for permanent Koreans resident in Japan. The book examines the role of the internet in the recruitment of nativist activists and in lending a veil of historical truth to the falsehoods concerning these special privileges.
