Teaching Reform - Kyogakusassin

Japanese: 教学刷新 - きょうがくさっしん

It began with the issue of the Emperor Organ Theory by Minobe Tatsukichi in the Imperial Diet in February 1935 (Showa 10), and was developed based on the report of the Educational Reform Council (an advisory body to the Minister of Education) in October of the following year, and continued until Japan's defeat in World War II. This was a policy and movement by the government, military, and right-wing civilians to control education, scholarship, and thought based on the Japanese spirit and the theory of the national polity. For the government and military, who sought to expand the market of growing Japanese capitalism through military infiltration, the rise of socialist and liberal ideas under Taisho democracy and their penetration into students, intellectuals, and workers was seen as an unacceptable source of domestic anxiety.

1935年(昭和10)2月の帝国議会における美濃部達吉の天皇機関説問題に発端し，翌年10月の教学刷新評議会(文部大臣の諮問機関)の答申に基づいて展開されはじめ，第2次大戦敗戦時まで継続された，政府･軍部･民間右翼による，日本精神と国体論とに立脚した教育･学問･思想の統制の政策および運動。　成長する日本資本主義の市場拡大を軍事侵出によって果たそうとする政府･軍部などにとって，大正デモクラシー下での社会主義･自由主義思想の台頭とその学生･知識人･労働者層への浸透は，許しがたい国内的不安要因とされた。
