Nails are seen as un-Japanese and therefore to be averted if potential.)
Nonetheless, Japan remained intensely ethnocentric. The emotions of the Japanese for his or her nation have been nonetheless there, ready for the suitable time to precise themselves.
This continued all through the Occupation (1945-1952) and the period of American domination. That was acceptable then; Japan exchanged nationalism and militarism for home peace, safety below the American nuclear umbrella, the constructing of an export financial system by way of mercantilism, and the constructing of public infrastructure with cash saved as a result of American taxpayers supplied Japan’s nationwide protection.
