The conservatism of Japanese contemporary politic inherits Japanese modern nationalism. Japanese modern nationalism flushed in the middle of the 19th century and shaped in the evening of 19th century. Its attribute is extreme, its character is absolutism and militarism, and it comes true by aggression and the contending for hegemony war. Japanese modern nationalism is a sort of ideology and a sort of practice. It comes of Japanese absolute political philosophy and the extreme political ideology of political civilization being indigenous to Japan. The practice of Japanese modern nationalism terminated the Second World War. But its ideology lurked in the political tradition and comes down to this day. The practice of Japanese modern nationalism was extremely reactive and its effects were very deep. It brought Asia unheard-of tragedy, and left behind permanent reflection for the human being.As a organic structure of the paper,the central content of the introductory remark is my understanding of the nationalism, this is the deductive reasoning premise of the analysis of the extreme nationalism of modern Japanese,as well as the conceptual premise of the argument and analysis of this paper. The concrete content includes that the core concept of the nationalism is national standard;the nationalism is a ethical category,it performs the dual ethics which concludes the introversive ethics and the extroverted ethics;the nationalism classifies with the gentle(necessary)nationalism,the strong(conservative) nationalism and the extreme(absolute) nationalism.The first chapter argues that the background of the formation of the extreme nationalism of modern Japan,that is the background of the formation of modern Japanese nationalism——In the 1850s,the internal and external crisis of Japan whose systerm is the systerm in shogunate(the internal Integrity and the external Independence both faced up with crisis.)The second chapter argues that the origin of the political culture of the extreme nationalism of modern Japanese——the conservative national consciousness and the national philosophy in political culture tradition (conservative political awareness, political values, view on political ethics , political psychology and so on)The third chapter argues that the formation of modern Japanese nationalism, in other words, the variation process of modern Japan statism (the essential statism→the conservative statism→the extreme nationalism).The symbols of the formation respectively are: The establishment of Japanese emperor system in modern times , The ideologically extreme conservative diplomacy philosophy,national power principle, Japanese principle. These consciouness closely relating with the nationalism become the mainstream ideology , also symbolizes and means the morphologization of the Nationalism consciousness .The forth chapter argues that the features of the modern Japanese extreme nationalism include the extremist nature, the absolute spirit, the imperial faith, the family ethics ,the national essence of the psychological, the practice of militarism and the imperialist objectives.The fifth chapter argues that the practice and effects of modern Japanese extreme nationalism, include the absolute practice at home (definitely continuing to strengthen the state system and ideology), the extremism of external practice (the unilateral nature of state power, the mandatory powers, hegemony). Before generalizing the negative impact of the extreme nationalism, it is necessary to assess the historical roles played by the first two phases (shape) of the modern Japanese nationalism in the course of the Modernization of Japan.
