日本的工人运动和社会主义运动经历了好几个发展阶段。日本工人运动和社会主义运动最初阶段(1872——1896年)的特点:是日本无产阶级的自发发动,这种发动与其说是罢工,毋宁说是骚动;是工人联合会的建立,其中手工业、行会的思想体系占优势地位。从19世纪70年代初,空想社会主义和小资产阶级社会主义思想(T·莫尔、P·欧文、圣西门、傅利叶、布朗、普鲁东、拉萨尔和其他等人)在日本开始传播。这种思想的可能传播,是由于大工厂工业的些微发展。小资产阶级知识分子传播了这些思想,当时他们处在可作19世纪70——80年代之特征的资产阶级自由主义运动——“自由民权运动”的强烈影响下。 Japan’s workers’ movement and the socialist movement have gone through several stages of development. The characteristics of the initial stage of the Japanese workers ’movement and the socialist movement (1872-1896) were: the spontaneous launch of the Japanese proletariat rather than a strike, or rather a commotion, rather than a commotion; the establishment of the Workers’ Union, in which handicrafts, Guild’s ideology dominated. From the early 1870s, utopian socialism and petty-bourgeois socialist ideas (T · Moore, P Irving, St Simon, Fourier, Brown, Proudhon, Lassalle and others) began to spread in Japan. The possible spread of this idea is due to the slight development of the big factory industry. Petty-bourgeois intellectuals spread these ideas when they were strongly influenced by the “liberal civil rights movement”, a bourgeois liberal movement that characterized the 1880s and 1880s of the 18th century.
