The time is the Age of Exploration.

Heart Publishing Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Ikebukuro, Toshima-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Hiroaki Hidaka) examines how Japanese rulers at the time repelled the invasions that white Christian nations carried out around the world during the Age of Exploration. We have released the book “How Nobunaga, Hideyoshi, and Ieyasu fought against globalism” by Kotaro Miura, which was compiled from many documents.

However, this is only a one-dimensional perspective. Basically, adventurers who crossed the seas during the Age of Exploration had the mission of “missionaries carrying out missionary work in new lands,” but at the same time, they also carried out “unusual resources and crops brought back from distant lands.” He had the aspect of being a usurper who sought the enormous wealth he could bring, and had the military power to achieve that goal.
In fact, the “discovered” countries, mainly the countries of Central and South America, and the coastal areas of Africa and Asia, were subject to “genocide” and “slave trade,” and at that time Japan was also exposed to this crisis. This was not very well known. “Why did Xavier visit Japan?”
“Why did Toyotomi Hideyoshi issue the banten order?”
“Why did the Tokugawa shogunate isolate itself?”
Some history textbooks only report these events separately, but they are all historical facts that follow a single flow. This book draws directly on a wealth of materials and literature to smoothly guide this series of events. This work brilliantly filled the void in Japanese history education, which lacked an answer to the question “why.”
Currently, the label “globalism = good, nationalism = bad” continues to be applied by various media.
There is no problem with rational international exchange, and of course conflicts between countries should be avoided as much as possible. However, by labeling “unilateral immigration,” which has become a social issue, as globalism, we can say that we are already falling into the trap of an invisible enemy.
Now is the time to learn from the resolute response of the politicians of the time, including the “Three Heroes of the Sengoku Period,” and protect Japan from the easy globalism that will destroy the country. This book can be said to be the perfect “living textbook” for that purpose.
