Abstract

Shibusawa Eiichi, arguably the most famous entrepreneur of modern Japan, was born at the end of the Tokugawa period. He lived through the Meiji, Taisho, and first years of the Showa periods, witnessing the drastic changes that occurred in Japanese society at that time. This paper examines Shibusawa Eiichi's view of and concern for the state as embodied in his business concepts, which were applicable to both domestic and foreign affairs as perceived by Shibusawa.
