Description
| Contents What are the "social lies" that undermine Japan? Many events that are considered taboo to criticize under the guise of moral goodness.... I feel uncomfortable with the movement to spread [certain values] through peer pressure.... That we have come to be unaware of what we have lost because we did not know. To regain the freedom of spirit that has been eroded because of our indifference. A proposal to live soundly tomorrow by thinking and acting with our own minds. In this book. [Why do so many people work so hard and yet have no vision for themselves?] [Why do we feel a sense of stagnation in modern Japan?] [How can we overcome this sense of stagnation and live?] The author has compiled his own answers to these difficult questions. The author explains what is happening in the world political space today, based on the actual relationship between elections, policies, business, and the people, which he has experienced both in Japan and abroad. The book then makes a two-part proposal on what changes are beginning to occur in the world and how we should respond to them. It is easy and tempting to run away from freedom. Through the normalization of running away from freedom, human beings close themselves off from their own possibilities and the meaning of life. And eventually, they forget that freedom even exists. People feel a slight sense of discomfort living in an authoritarian society, but they are unable to recognize even the true nature of that discomfort. In today's society, when you are born, someone else has already prepared a plan for your life. And as you go through the process of designing your life, you will repeatedly succeed and fail, and reach the moment when your life comes to an end. Various policies have been prepared so that you do not have any doubts about your life, and you will spend your life in a somewhat predetermined way. If you open the Internet, you will be bombarded with information on how to spend your life wisely within the existing framework of this society. In addition, liberal and uniform values are being imposed on you, including by the media. The correct life schedule and values have been pre-formatted by others, and you are no longer able to even think about [what freedom means]. If you are willing to break out of the cage of authoritarianism and live of your own volition, freedom will appear as a companion to your life, with an unassuming face. Freedom can be demanding, comforting, anxiety-provoking, or happy. Freedom is the presence that brings fulfillment to your life. It will be my greatest pleasure if the contents of this book help you to feel the presence of such freedom. Even if people have forgotten freedom, it does not mean that freedom itself has been lost. Freedom is always with you, waiting for us to remind you of its existence.

日本を蝕む「社会的嘘」とは何か—
道徳的「善」を装い、批判することがタブー視される事象の数々…。
同調圧力によって「特定の価値観」を拡めようとする動きに違和感を感じる…。
知らなかったため、失ったことに、気づかないまま来てしまったこと。
私たちが無関心だったために、侵食された精神の自由を取り戻す。
自らの頭で考え、行動することで、明日を健全に生きるための提言。
本書では
「なぜ、多くの人が懸命に働いても自分の展望が持てないのか?」
「なぜ、現代の日本で閉塞感を感じるのか?」
「その閉塞感を乗り越えて生きていくにはどうすれば良いのか?」
という難問に対し、筆者なりの回答をまとめている。
筆者が国内外で経験した現実の選挙・政策・ビジネスと国民の関係を基礎として、現在の世界の政治空間に何が起きているのかを解説する。
そのうえで世界にいかなる変化が起き始め、われわれは、どのように対応するべきであるのか、について提言を行う二段構えとなっている。
自由から逃げ出すことは、簡単で誘惑的なことだ。
自由からの逃走が常態化することを通じ、人間は自分自身の可能性や人生の意味を自ら閉ざしてしまう。そして、最終的には自由の存在すら忘れてしまう。
人々は権威主義社会の中で暮らすことに、わずかな違和感を覚えつつも、その違和感の正体すら認識できなくなっている。
現代社会では、貴方が生まれた段階で既に他者が作った人生設計が用意されている。そして、その人生設計のプロセスを経る中で、成功や失敗を繰り返し、人生を終える瞬間を迎えることになる。
貴方が人生に何ら疑問を抱かないように、さまざまな政策が用意されており、何となく決まった人生を過ごしていくことになる。
インターネットを開いてみれば、この社会の既存の枠組みの中でいかに賢く過ごしていくか、という情報が溢れ返っている。さらに、メディアも含めて、リベラルで画一的な価値観が貴方に対して押し付けられている。正しい人生のスケジュールや価値観が他者によって事前に形作られており、貴方は「自由とは何か」ということを考えることすらできなくなっている。
もし貴方が権威主義の創り出した、それらの鳥かごから抜け出し、自らの意志で生きようとするなら、自由は何気ない顔をしながら、貴方の人生の伴走役として姿を見せるだろう。自由は時に厳しいものであり、心地よいものであり、不安を煽るものであり、幸福をもたらす。自由は貴方の人生に充実感をもたらす存在である。
本書の内容がそのような自由の存在を感じられるようになる一助となれば、筆者にとっては望外の喜びである。
人々が自由を忘れてしまったとしても、自由そのものが失われてしまったわけではない。自由は常に貴方の傍らに存在しており、われわれがその存在を思い出すことを待っている。
