The thought of Ishikawa, as evident in “Domin Seikatsu Shiso”(Thought of Native Life), which was a translation of “democracy” suggested by E. Carpenter, points to many negatives in contemporary materialistic civilization to ask basic questions and from that perspective, seek reform of the ongoing crises in the world, most importantly the destruction of the environment. In the thought of Ishikawa, we see the influence of Edward Carpenter. Through an examination of the comparative intellectual history of both men, this research study will take an independent look into the effect that western European criticism of contemporary civilization had on the intellectual history of modern Japan. Carpenter was keenly aware that nature was entering a critical state, and he questioned the one-dimensional nature of this ideal of progress in the forward thrust of modernization. The age in which he lived was one in which clouds had begun to form over the optimism previously felt about qualitative progress in the reality of human life compared to the acceleration of forward progress in civilization’s size. It was a time when the change in the paradigm of our existence from an open to a closed thread was beginning to remove the ideal of progress from the stage.
