Japan is facing a new wave of political tension as far-right, anti-immigration, and anti-foreigner movements gain visibility in public discourse. This video explores the rise of far-right politics in Japan, with a special focus on the controversial Sanseito party (参政党), its policies, and the broader social issues of racism and xenophobia in Japanese society.

In recent years, Sanseito has drawn attention for its anti-immigration stance, skepticism toward globalization, and rhetoric targeting foreigners. While the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) continues to dominate mainstream politics, Sanseito and other nationalist voices are shaping public opinion, especially around issues of immigration, cultural identity, and Japan’s future in an era of declining population.

This video will cover:

The rise of Sanseito, its origins, and its platform built on nationalism, traditional values, and resistance to foreign influence.

How racism and xenophobia manifest in Japan’s political discourse, media narratives, and public life.

The role of far-right movements in amplifying anti-foreigner sentiment and opposing policies that open Japan to immigration and multiculturalism.

How Japan’s demographic crisis and labor shortages clash with the far right’s resistance to immigration.

Comparisons between Japan’s far right and nationalist movements in other countries.

The dangers of misinformation, conspiracy theories, and political radicalization linked to far-right organizations.

The discussion also looks at how Japanese society reacts to foreigners, from foreign workers in agriculture and manufacturing to long-term residents and international students. While Japan increasingly depends on foreign labor to sustain its economy, political backlash fueled by far-right groups highlights the tension between economic necessity and nationalist ideology.

We also explore how Japan’s postwar history, identity politics, and global standing are influenced by these movements. For viewers who want to understand the future of Japanese politics, this is a critical issue: whether Japan will embrace openness and diversity, or whether far-right nationalism and xenophobia will gain more traction in shaping the country’s policies.

This analysis is designed for global audiences interested in far-right politics, nationalism, immigration policy, racism in Japan, and the future of Japanese democracy. By the end of this video, you will have a deeper understanding of the Sanseito party’s role, the rise of far-right anti-immigration sentiment, and how these forces may influence Japan’s political and social future.
