自己強化派閥
Self Strengthening Faction
Jiko Kyōka-Habatsu
Residency / Laissez-Faire / Free Trade / Pro Military / Moralism
Ideology: Pro Modernization & Moderate Liberalism
The Jiko Kyōka-Habatsu is a faction of daimyos of Japan who believe in the need of change, in the need of learning the wisdom of the West, to protect the traditions and beliefs of Japan from the Western covetousness and ambition. Rangaku, the project which create an exchange of knowledges between the Dutch delegation on Dejima, and the building of terakoya, temple schools, should be encouraged by the Bakufu, to protect the Eastern Morality from Westerners by using the their techniques against them. The Jiko Kyōka-Habatsu believes that the Ikokusen Uchiharairei, the Edict to Repel Foreign Vessels, should be repealed, for it and the outdated Sakoku-policy of the Bakufu impair the ability of our defense to adapt Western Techniques and our economy to grow and modernize. The Westerners should be able to reside in various ports, chosen by the Bakufu, if they adhere to Japanese Law, the Jiko Kyōka-Habatsu believes the Westerners should be allowed to trade in more ports than Dejima and with more delegations than the Dutch without the Bakufu intervening with disastrous laws like the Ikokusen Uchiharairei, for western trade and the knowledge it will bring will strengthen both the modernization of Japan and the economy of Japan by giving Japan new ways, both administrative and fiscal, to improve our economy. The Jiko Kyōka-Habatsu also believes that the obtaining weapons, such as motars, fiearms and field guns and the strengthening of our coastal and naval defense are needed, through old and new trade ties that can be opened by the repeal of the Ikokusen Uchiharaisei, protect, as we have stated before, the Japanese traditions and morals, which, under no circumstance, should be sacrificed for the modernization of Japan.
