Russia and Japan: Industrialization Outside the West

5. Industrialization and modernization in Russia
Confronted with growing Western dominance in trade, Japan and Russia sought to modernize and industrialize beginning in the late 19th century.
Russia had begun agricultural reforms with the emancipation of serfs in 1861 and encouraged industrial activity by building a railroad system in the 1870s.

6. Industrialization and modernization in Russia
While Russia made great gains in industrial production, its technology was inferior to that of the West.
The great majority of Russians continued to live in poverty, including even those who worked in the new factories.
Note the seeds of the Russian revolution in the poor conditions of workers.

7. Japanese industrialization
Japan, on the other hand, was the more flexible of the two nations and made rapid strides in industrialization.
The government, which had been reformed under the Meiji Restoration, sought to finance industrial development.

8. Japanese industrialization
However, much of the work in factories was done by poorly paid women.
Due to its lack of natural resources, including oil, Japan depended on foreign markets to buy what it needed, and it also relied on these markets to sell its goods.
This lack of resources will be one factor in the build up to World War II.

9. Compare the ways in which industrialization manifested itself in Japan and Russia.

10. Compare the ways in which industrialization manifested itself in Japan and Russia.
In both countries, the process of industrialism threatened traditional and social hierarchies.
In Russia, the aristocracy was threatened by the abolition of serfdom, the creation of regional zemstvoes, and reforms of the army.

11. Compare the ways in which industrialization manifested itself in Japan and Russia.
In Japan, there were similar changes: the samurai were almost destroyed by the fall of the shogunate, the destruction of feudalism, and military reform.
Both nations used territorial expansion as a means of mollifying the aristocracy and building support for the imperial government.

12. Compare the ways in which industrialization manifested itself in Japan and Russia.
The courses of expansion differed.
Japan did not begin until the 1890s, after industrialization, as it sought to secure sources of raw materials in Korea and Manchuria.
Russian expansion began long before industrialization; one primary motive was the securing of a warm-water port.

13. Compare Japanese and Russian and Latin American independence from the West.

14. Compare Japanese and Russian and Latin American independence from the West.
Both Japan and Russia made conscious use of Western models in achieving industrialization, and both incorporated aspects of Western culture in the process of industrialization.
Both continued to trade with the West, so in a sense both were culturally and technologically dependent on the West.

15. Compare Japanese and Russian and Latin American independence from the West.
Japan’s industrialization was more complete and was accomplished with less foreign capital—and, thus, with less foreign control of development.
Japan, with the exception of a lack of raw materials, was more economically autonomous.

16. Compare Japanese and Russian and Latin American independence from the West.
Russia, even after industrialization, retained some of the aspects of dependent economies, such as heavy foreign capitalization of industry and continued reliance on agricultural exports to the West.
Both were involved in alliances that largely were the creation of Western states.

17. Compare Japanese and Russian and Latin American independence from the West.
The chief difference from Latin America was the successful industrialization of Russia and Japan.
Latin America was less involved in Western diplomatic systems and in colonialism.
In cultural borrowing and the importation of Western capital, there were greater similarities.
