The Rightist Socialist Party of Japan was a Japanese political party that existed between 1948 and 1955. It was a center-left political party, which adopted a policy of moderatesocial-democracy.
The left-wing was in chaos between 1948 and 1955, and finally, in early 1955, the Rightist Socialists and the Leftist Socialists reconciled and merged back into the Japan Socialist Party, months before the formation of the Liberal Democrat Party, a merger of the Liberal and Democrat parties. Even though, the Rightist Socialist Party had already dissolved by 1955, and the Japan Socialist Party had reunified, some members of the former Rightist Socialist Party broke off from the JSP in 1960 and created the Democratic Socialist Party. A newly formed youth organisation - Young Socialists (Japan), which retains a full membership of International Union of Socialist Youth) is said to be inherited from the political tradition of Rightist Socialist Party.
Japan subsequently agreed to retire from Shantung, and, shortly thereafter, Japanese armies withdrew from Siberia and northern Sakhalin.
Meanwhile, Japan avoided stronger involvement in the civil war in China and pursued a conciliatory course with the Soviet Union, despite demands from nationalists, who utilized alleged outrages in China and the discriminatory U.S. Immigration Act of 1924 to warn of the futility of cooperating with Western nations.
At the same time, rural Japan provided the bulk of the labourers for the new industries, and daughters from farming families were found in many textile plants.
