At the Coronation of Emperor Deren, the Emperor Deren on October 22 last year, the new Emperor told the world's ascending matters and prayed for the peaceful world of the people, and the prime minister in the dyston, Abe Jin Sanzhi, and then took the leadNarch.On the occasion of Abe's long lives, the heads of the Japanese government, parliament and the Supreme Court (that is, the three power agencies) present were shouted with their arms.In the public rally, Her Majesty's long lives were as many as 48 times.Presumably people still remember this scene.Although this has become a prescribed action in the coronation ceremony of the Emperor, due to the special national conditions of Japan, this move is still very controversial in Japan.
Although Japan is also an Eastern country, it has also gone through a long feudal society and has always implemented the Emperor's system. However, cheering the history of His Majesty the Emperor's long lives is far less long as people imagine.
Although the Emperor (AD 794 to 1192), when the Emperor's throne, the Japanese also waved the flag and shouted the Emperor's long live (there was no action at the time).It was not until the end of the 19th century, and in February 1889, Japan promulgated the Constitution of the Greater Japan Empire (that is, the Meiji Constitution).
Subsequently, the ambitious Japan launched the Sino -Japanese War of the Sino -Japanese War of the Sino -Japanese War, so this slogan has risen throughout Japan, and it is naturally a catalyst for militarism.
In 1904, Marshal Hirang, the commander of the Japanese United Fleet Officer, and the children of the Japanese Russia war, and the children near his residence were giving him a long live in his residence.
In 1940, at the grand rally of the 2600th anniversary of Japan, the participants shouted their arms and shouted.At that time, not only did the Japanese invasion war in Japan entered a climax, but at the same time, Japan was still about to launch the Pacific War.
During the launch of the Japanese invasion of China and the Pacific War, Japan's newspapers continued to publish related pictures and news, reporting that the Japanese army was cheered by long lives.As a result, the people in Japan thought that this was the native people sincerely welcomed the rule of Japan.
In July 1944, in the Battle of Saipan, the Japanese officers and soldiers were surrounded by the U.S. military and were uncomfortable. After retreating the cliffs in the northern part of the island, they would rather surrender.Jumping off the cliff and becoming a funeral of militarism.That cliff is also called long live cliff.In August 1945, the U.S. military aircraft in Hiroshima and Nagasaki used atomic bombs and Nagasaki also took off from Saipan.Today, long lives have become famous tourist attractions.At the same time, at the time of the Japanese defeat that had been finalized, the god -style assault players who had undergone militaryist brainwashing education successively shouted the Emperor long live and hit the US warships (mainly aircraft carriers).Of course, when young people from all over the country joined the army and their expeditions, it is undoubtedly an indispensable content to call the Emperor.
In 1948, the Far East International Military Tribunal sentenced to the Dajo -British -level war criminals, such as the Extraorders, to the execution ground, and they all moved towards the twisted after the Emperor Sanhuo Emperor.
Such a painful historical lesson, of course, cannot be easily become a smoky past.Many parents will remember the unbearable past in their families in their families.
After the defeat, the US occupation forces implemented democratic reforms in Japan. Although the Japanese royal family was preserved, the status and role of the emperor had changed fundamentally.Therefore, in 1947, the Ministry of Culture issued a notice issued, requiring primary and secondary schools in various places to not call His Majesty the Emperor's long live, nor did he pay tribute to the palace.
After the war, this slogan of militarism faded.Therefore, when some politicians wins and even disbands the House of Representatives, and athletes, they can hear the slogan of Van.At the Tokyo Olympics in 1964, this slogan was one after another.
In 2010, when the Japanese government accepted the inquiry in Congress: I have not heard of the formal request for LSquo; long live lsquo;
According to the relevant teaching requirements, Japanese elementary school teachers educated students so long: When they call this slogan, they must be exhaled three times, and they must hold their heads with both hands.Society is regarded as surrender).Sometimes in the hot summer, the school has repeatedly corrected the actions for students on the playground. Parents have opinions on this.In addition to the solemn occasions such as the Emperor's crowns, such as the student's graduation ceremony and the company's forgotten annual meeting, you can hear the cheers from time to time from time to time.
Nowadays, these cheers you hear on most of Japan have no political meanings, and it is purely expressing a mood or wish.However, due to Japan's specific national conditions and the unforgettable history, many people think of the emperor's long lives on such a solemn occasion on the crowns of the Emperor, and it feels very bad.Including the Coronation Coronation of Emperor Deren mentioned earlier, although Abe's collaboration slogan was very invested, not the attendees present shouted. Many people stood so without response., Scenes gathered.In such a solemn occasion, of course, the attendees will not show strange expressions, and the audience who watch the live broadcast of TV, some people think that this is funny, and there are no shortage of people who are dumb.There are quite a few elders who heard the slogan from time to time, and naturally produced this feeling: Is this going back to the pre -war and war era?
Here is a detail related to this.During the fall of the park in the fall of 2004, the director of the Tokyo Metropolitan Education Commission introduced to the then Emperor Akihito: It is my job to let all Japanese schools hang on the national flag and sing the national anthem.In response, Akihito Relief immediately responded: I still hope not to force (hanging the national flag, sing the national anthem).Although the Japanese Parliament repeatedly emphasized that it is not allowed to sing the national flag through mandatory means to sing the national anthem through compulsory means, all local education committees are actually promoting this matter with administrative means to guide students how to sing the national anthem.At the graduation ceremony of each school, supervisors were also dispatched to punish the teachers who did not stand when they played the national anthem.
The people of all countries in the world have been taken for granted and righteous when they raised the national anthem, while the Japanese Congress made the opposite provision, and even the emperor himself made it clear that the Japanese Constitution clearly stipulated that the emperor must not interfere with politics.It can be seen that patriotism is a sensitive vocabulary in Japan, and Emperor Akihito is so hard.According to this kind of push, what kind of effect will the emperor's long live, what kind of feeling will it feel for the people to produce, it is not difficult to imagine.Some company employees even shouted so much about the end of the meeting at the end of the meeting.
During the reign of Emperor Mingren, during his reign, he visited the major battlefields of the Japanese army during World War II, including the Saimai Island Wanliu Cliffs mentioned earlier, and prayed for the victims of the war.Although he could not directly express his political stance, he made every effort to use actual actions to call on Japanese politicians and the majority of citizens, and must not forget the painful historical lessons of the past.And Abe was widely attacked by international public opinion for his second time he took office, and the Abe's conversation passed by the Japanese cabinet passed by the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II was blurred.People are associated with this.
