Conservatism in Japan

Conservatism (Japanese: 保守主義; Romaji: Hoshushugi) in Japan refers to the political philosophy of conservatism as it has developed in Japan. Mainstream Japanese conservatives largely believe in stances such as revising the Constitution and a pro-United States foreign policy While some hold more radical positions including calls for remilitarisation and a stronger foreign policy stance against North Korea, China, and Russia. Additionally, certain conservative factions may express anti-LGBT and anti-immigration sentiments, citing concerns about preserving traditional values and social cohesion.
