	Kids.Net.Au - Encyclopedia > Kotoku Shusui
		Kotoku Shusui (November 4, 1871 - January 24, 1911) was a socialist and anarchist who played a leading role in introducing anarchism to Japan in the early 20th century, particularly by translating the works of contemporary European and Russian anarchists, such as Peter Kropotkin, into Japanese.
		Kotoku moved from his birthplace, the town of Nakamura[?] in the Kochi prefecture, to Tokyo in his mid-teens and became a journalist there in 1893.
		Kotoku was hung along with twelve others on 24th January, 1911, even though only four of the hundreds arrested were found to be involved in a planned attempt on the Emperor's life, and Kotoku wasn't one of them.

	THE ANARCHIST MOVEMENT IN JAPAN - Chapter One: 1906-1911
		Japan's popular image is of a hierarchical and regimented society, while the Japanese are widely regarded as unswervingly loyal servants of the company and the state.
		Even within Japan there are many Japanese who are unaware of the anarchist movement's existence, of the martyrs who have died for the cause, and of the sustained struggle that has been fought against the capitalist state and the inhumanity it has perpetrated over the years.
		That she should have discovered the anarchist movement only after leaving Japan is a good illustration of the extent to which the existence of Japanese anarchism has been omitted from the officially sponsored historical record, filtered out of the education curriculum and ignored by the mass media.

	Notes On Feudal Japan
		A new emperor, Kotoku, was installed and a new family, the Fujiwara, was created; this new family was to breed with and politically dominate the throne for many hundreds of years.
		All existing rice paddies were considered public land that could be freely redistributed by the Emperor, and a census was conducted in 670 to determine the nature of the population.
		Although the Emperor is the logical apex of this structure, most of his time was spent ensconced away from the lower classes who were not allowed to lay eyes upon him.
