在战后的日本新保守主义者中,民族自我主张与对“现代”价值观的批判态度相结合并不罕见。我想以《幸福的科学》为例,提出一个问题,即为什么以及如何构建一个新的民族认同。特别是,我想问一下历史编纂在这一过程中的作用。本文探讨了“历史”漫画和创始人川良丰的著作,关于用于传达日本身份和合法化由此产生的道德主张的战略。有趣的是,这种特殊的历史编纂所创造的国家形象并不像各种形式的所谓日本人论(即关于日本人的“本质”的论述)那样是本质主义的。对小川来说,国家认同与亚洲文明的更广泛背景相联系,亚洲文明建立在一套特定的价值观之上(与西方文明相对立),而全球认同是日本普遍使命的基础。
The combination of national self-assertion with a critical attitude towards ‘modern’ values is not unusual among post-war Japanese New Religions. By taking up the example of Kōfuku no Kagaku I want to raise the question why and how New Religions construct a national identity. In particular, I ask about the role of historiography in that process. The paper examines ‘historical’ comics and writings by the founder Ōkawa Ryūhō with regard to the strategies that are used to convey a Japanese identity and legitimise resulting moral claims. Interestingly, the national image created by this particular historiography is not essentialist, as are the various forms of the so-called Nihonjinron (i.e. discourses on the ‘essence’ of being Japanese). For Ōkawa, national identity is tied to the wider context of an Asian civilisation that rests on a specific set of values (in opposition to a western civilisation), and of a global identity as the basis of Japan’s universal mission.
