Maruyama Masao
Maruyama Masao was a prominent Japanese political scientist and philosopher, known for his critical analysis of Japanese society and politics, particularly during the tumultuous era of the 1930s. His work often focused on the intersection of democracy and authoritarianism, and he coined the term 'technofascism' to describe the dangerous blend of military dictatorship and blind faith in technology that characterized Japan during that time. His insights are increasingly relevant today as discussions about the implications of technology on governance and civil liberties continue to evolve.
