103 years ago today, July 15, 1922 (May 21, 1922, the Lunar Calendar), the Communist Party of Japan was officially established. The Communist Party of Japan (Japanese: Communist Party of Japan,, English: Japanese Communist Party, abbreviated as JCP) is one of the existing political parties in Japan. It was established on July 15, 1922 and is a left-wing political party in Japan. The Communist Party of Japan was established after the Japanese government declared it illegal. It was reported by relevant units in 1923 and disintegrated in 1924. It was re-established in 1926 and advocated a two-stage socialist and democratic revolution, with the goals of "abolishing absolute Mikado" and "realizing national sovereignty." It was banned again in 1928, and many important leaders such as Tokuda Kyu were arrested and disintegrated again in 1935. It was not until after the war in 1945 that it was legalized and the party organization was rebuilt. In 1946, when the Communist Party of Japan first entered the election, it won five seats in the House of Representatives. By the 1949 election, the Communist Party of Japan had grown to 39 seats; However, because the Communist Party of Japan advocated armed struggle and was banned in 1952, the armed struggle line also caused the Communist Party of Japan to lose all its parliamentary seats. It was not until 1956, when Kenji Miyamoto served as chairman and expressed his belief that the strength of the Communist Party of Japan gradually recovered. In 1979, the number of seats increased to 41, the largest number of seats in the House of Representatives since the founding of the Communist Party of Japan. The Communist Party of Japan once had a plan to cooperate with the Socialist Party of Japan, but it was not reached later; the Communist Party of Japan has also been isolated, and party consultations in the National Assembly often exclude the Communist Party of Japan. In 2004, the Communist Party of Japan formulated a new program, the main contents include: ensuring social welfare budgets, abolishing the US-Japan Security Treaty, amending the Japanese Constitution to consolidate democracy, adhering to the separation of powers, protecting the rights of homosexuals and ethnic minorities, and opposing nationalism., demanding the return of the northern territory and the Kuril Islands. After the end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Communist Party of Japan did not join the coalition government, and the strength of the party did not expand; and after Japan changed the electoral system to a single constituency, two-vote system, the possibility of the Communist Party of Japan gaining seats in a single constituency became less likely; Coupled with changes in the international situation around Japan, it has become more difficult for the Communist Party of Japan to win votes. At present, the Communist Party of Japan has only nine members of the House of Representatives and six members of the Senate, as well as 4,000 local councillors and ten heads of local governments. Comment: It was established relatively early, but unfortunately the team is not too strong.
