A political scientist from the Meiji to Taisho eras. A leading thinker in the early days of the Taisho democracy movement. Born on December 28, 1858, as the son of a samurai from the Kumamoto domain. Graduated from Kumamoto Western School and Doshisha English School (the precursor to Doshisha University). Studied abroad at Yale University. After working as a professor at Doshisha University, he became a professor at Tokyo Senmon Gakko (the precursor to Waseda University) in 1897 (Meiji 30). He taught at the school until 1941 (Showa 16), while also actively engaged in critical writing. In particular, as editor-in-chief (1909-17) of the representative general magazine Taiyo from the latter half of the Meiji period to the Taisho period, he advocated the unified promotion of domestic policy = constitutionalism and foreign policy = imperialism (economic imperialism), and played the role of a theoretical pioneer of democracy. One of his representative works is Ethical Imperialism (1909, Ryubunkan). He died on October 28, 1946.
