Explanation and Etymology - (自治) jichi

The Japanese word "自治" is composed of the kanji "自" meaning "self" and "治" meaning "govern" or "manage". Together they form the meaning of "self-rule" or "autonomy". The etymology of the word dates back to the Meiji period (1868-1912), when Japan underwent modernization and Westernization. During this period, the government centralized power and began to impose its policies across the country. This led to a movement towards decentralization and local autonomy, which culminated in the creation of autonomous local governments in 1889. Since then, the word "自治" has been used to describe local autonomy and the ability to govern itself.
