Despite its enormous power and visibility in the modern global
system Japan was not able to significantly influence its own image abroad.
This might be due to a considerable perception gap between Japanese identity
and foreign image. This research project aims to correct the foreign image
construction vis-a`-vis Japan, based on fundamental, high-quality research
from inside Japan by well-known and prestigious Japanese researchers. They
are all experts in those disciplines which are relevant for a description
of the contemporary cultural identity of Japan.
The project will realize the following three major aims:
narrowing the perception gap between the changes actually taking place in
contemporary Japan and the perception of those changes abroad;
showing which major changes are taking place in contemporary Japan by focusing
on the major fields in which those changes are taking place; showing what
the effects of those changes will be inside as well as outside Japan.
The following fields are provisionally selected: Administration (State, Prefecture,
City), Business Culture, Corporate Strategy, Economic Development, Education,
Environment, Financial System, Foreign Policy and International Relations,
Lifestyle, Literature and Arts, Media, Political system and political culture,
Popular culture, Position of women, Religion, Social cohesion, Technology.
