The Ishinkai (Japanese: 維新会, "Restoration Society") was a short-lived political party in Japan.
History[edit]
The party was established in June 1917 by 43 independent members of the National Diet elected in the April elections, some of whom had previously been members of the Kōseikai.[1] It was pro-government, and supported Prime Minister Terauchi Masatake.[1]
In October 1917 the party merged with a group of 12 independent Diet members known as the "Kansai Group" to form the Shinseikai.[2][3]
