A genuine self recognition on the part of the Japanese began in the mid nineteenth century, and marked the starting point of their self recognition in the modern world. A number of schools with different views on this concept emerged during the Meiji period, and these schools sought and found expression in various forms throughout successive historical periods, and their influence is felt even today. The dominant characteristic of the Japanese self recognition of the Meiji period was the sense of “national destiny”, which led to extremes in the Japanese outlook. During the early Meiji period, Japan lagged behind both Europe and the US, and the a national sense of inferiority was very strong. However, once Japan had become powerful, the Japanese nation jumped to the other extreme of inflated nationalism which led to the destructive road of militarism.
