"In the aftermath of World War I, Japanese imperialism came to be rethought radically in the context of pan-Asianism, the new discourse of civilization that began at the time to burgeon in Japan and many other parts of (Asia). Pan-Asianism meant different things to different people, even within Japan.
There were those ... who saw the Japanese role in pan-Asianism as nondomineering-oriented toward solidarity and the revival of Asia. (For others)
pan-Asianism called for a final war between the West and the East led by Japan, which had amply demonstrated its leadership abilities. Pan-Asianism
also had a special meaning for Japanese nationalists and thinkers during the 1920s because of the growing perception that, despite Japan's effort to
become a world-class nation-state..., the Japanese continued to encounter racism and discrimination
Discrimination was perceived in the international conferences in Washington (1922), the London Naval Conference (1930), and wherever Japan was
allotted a lower quota of ships than the British and Americans. But most of all, it was the buildup of exclusionary policies in the United States and the
final Exclusion Laws prohibiting Japanese immigration in 1924 that galled Japanese nationalists. In their view, Asian civilization did not exhibit inhuman
racist attitudes and policies of this kind, and for Japanese) militants ... these ingrained civilizational differences would have to be fought out in a final,
righteous war of the East against the West."
