National essentialism (国粋主義 or 国粋保存主義),[1][2] in Japanese pronunciation as Kokusui Shugi or Kokusui Hozon Shugi[3] is one of the terms used to describe Japanese nationalism. Terms similar to kokusui shugi include kokka shugi (国家主義; lit. 'state nationalism') and minzoku shugi (民族主義; lit. 'ethnic nationalism'). Kokusui shugi emphasizes the uniqueness of Japanese culture and tradition against Europeanisationism (欧化主義) and pursues conservatism; Nihon shugi (日本主義; lit. 'Japanese consciousness or Japanism') is used in a similar sense.[4]
