The Yūkōkai (Japanese: 猶興会, lit. Re-emergence Society) was a political party in Japan. It was active from 1906 until 1908.

History

The party was established on 20 December 1906 by 36 National Diet members of the Seikō Club.[1] It opposed Saionji Kinmochi's Rikken Seiyūkai government and its high level of spending on the military and public services, and advocated an anti-corruption campaign.[1]

It won 29 seats in the 1908 elections. Following a failed attempt to form a new party by merging several parties opposed to the Rikken Seiyūkai government, it merged with a group of independent Diet members to form the Yūshinkai in December 1908.[1]
