The Economic Factor of Japanese Textbook Event

The economic factor is a main reason of the third Japanese textbook event, which occurred in April 2001. Firstly, the success of economy provoked the political nationalism which had been depressed because of the failure of the World War II. Secondly, the 90s decelerated economy stimulated the nationalist sentiment of Japanese, which is the main economic factor of the third Japanese textbook event.
