RE: Why is Japan so Peaceful? (A Foreigner's Voluntaryist View)
Random uninformed opinion incoming:
Can I say that their culture of politeness is strict and allows broad scope for people to issue a correction with the offender normally first apologising for their behaviour and thanking the corrector.
Since the politeness and behaviour expected is so far away from violence that anybody tending towards violence very quickly spotted.
That's an interesting perspective and I think you may be onto something there, honestly. That dynamic is so far-removed from violence that it likely creates a kind of mental "wall" "limiting" what can be viewed as possible responses.
