The concept of "imperialism" has to be fundamentally revised in order to be applicable to the modern world, especially to the economic globalism today. Imperialism for colonies and bloc economy ended with the World War II, and a fanatic or expansionist nationalism of an advanced capitalist state is exceptional today. At the same time, we can favorably apply Lenin's concept "the domestic regime of an imperialist country" to the drastic change of advanced societies since the end of 1970s. The second stage of the modern imperialism has been formed since then which reduced and is even now reducing "class compromise" and "the mass society type of integration". Imperialism should be defined as actions and impulses of strong states which aim at settlement, prevention and suppression of problems caused by gaps between the international behavior of enterprises and the nation-state-system. Imperialism in the past two centuries includes the British free trade imperialism, the imperialism of the Powers, the first and the second stages of the modern imperialism. The integrated mass society started in the last quarter of the 19th century when "the era of imperialism of the Powers" began. The welfare state is a typical example of integrated mass society, to which Japan with her company-based integration system belongs. For these twenty years, both types of the integration have been contracted or fundamentally changed. I argue in this paper that those changes are due to the emerging second stage of the modern imperialism, which is based on the multinational enterprises. Multinational corporations depend on their national economies, but at the same time they weaken the energy and the controllability of their national economies with their mass integration regimes. Neo-conservatism is a ruling ideology in the second stage of the modern imperialism.
