Resumen
The main objective of this article is to analyze the modern Japanese political system within a comparative framework, especially that of multiple modernities and their civilizational roots. The point of departure for this analysis is the fact that while in organizational terms the modern Japanese political system is a modern Constitutional system, similar to those of Europe, its political dynamic is manifested in the structure and orientations of protest movements, the establishment of the problem of community and civil society, and the dynamic of regime changes that differs greatly from the European. Such differences are rooted in non-Axial premises of Japanese civilization that have crystallized over the course of the long Japanese historical experience and have shaped some of the main differences between the Meiji Revolution and the Great Revolutions.
