Paper Abstract:
Discussion of the Samurai warrior class. Its domination of early Japanese society. Equivalent of Sumarai class in other societies, Europe and the U.S. Films about the Sumarai. Moral code of the Samurai depicted in the book CODE OF THE SAMURAI written to education yhoung Samurai in the 18th Century. The training program. Influence of Confuscianism.
Paper Introduction:
Code of the Samurai
The samurai warrior class came to dominate Japanese society because for most of its history the country has been at war. Apart from the Mongol invasions of the 13th century and the debacle of World War II, the warfare has been internal warlords fighting each other, or the central authority of the shogun.
One has only to see some of the historical dramas filmed by the great director Akira Kurosawa, such as The Seven Samurai, Yojimbo, Throne of Blood, or Ran to get a vivid sense of what the samurai were all about. Once the strangeness (to Westerners) of the bizarre dress and armor is registered, and one gets acclimated to a different culture and age, the motivations of the characters become clearer. For the samurai, there is usually an issue of honor to re

Paper Abstract:
History of Japan's native-grown religion. Emphasis on sacredness of nature. Concept of the natural world & nature mysticism. Revival of Shinto during Meiji period & perceived connection to movement in Japan toward a militaristic nationalism. Ultranationalism & notion of Japanese inherent superiority. Government sponsored Shrine Shinto and the ancient tradition.
Paper Introduction:
The history of Shinto, Japan's native-grown religion that predates the arrival of both Buddhism and Confucianism there, is embedded with a sacral conception of the land. This explains the erection of community shrines that represented "the creator or early owner of the land itself," as well as at various scenic spots in regions all across Japan. Earhart notes in particular that Shinto borrowed from Buddhist tradition the mandala symbol of the universe but transformed it to give it "a typically 'this-worldly' Shinto coloring" by means of "a picture of the actual Japanese landscape." That transformation is consistent with what Earhart calls the "Shinto emphasis on the sacredness of nature."
The Shinto writer Norinaga cites as the "universal principle of the world . . . that heaven and earth . . . were broug

Paper Introduction:
Code of the Samurai and the 47 Ronin Story
Every society has an ideal code of ethics and behavior that embody its most cherished values, and these cultural ideals can have remarkable persistence over time. For much of Japanese history, such a culturally-sanctioned model of ideal conduct was embodied in the martial values of the samurai warrior class.
As Thomas Cleary puts it in his introduction to the Code of the Samurai, “the entrenchment of the samurai as the dominant class had profound cultural and psychological effects on the Japanese people” (ix).
The samurai had their origin as an offshoot of the aristocracy. They were brought to prominence by the long duration of military governments in Japanese history. As the interests o

THE NEGOTIATING STYLE OF THE JAPANESE
Introduction
This research examines the negotiating style of the Japanese. The focus is on the personal styles of individuals engaged in face-to-face negotiations. The research concludes with (1) a description of the typical negotiating style of the Japanese and (2) a proportional assessment of the role of verbal, non-verbal, and listening activities in negotiations by Japanese.
Examining the Negotiating Style of Japanese
In some ways, contemporary Japanese negotiating styles may be traced to the Meiji Restoration. The Meiji Constitution was implemented in 1889 (Toland, 1970). When the strong central government was established as a part of the Meiji Restoration, the existing v

Paper Abstract:
Examines political development in 1910s and 1920s. Forces driving Japanese national development. Parliamentary government in the 1920s; transformation from Meiji rule. Shift toward party politics and shifting power base of the oligarchs. Japanese imperialism. Agrarian economy failure following World War I. Social unrest and protest. Rise of militarism. Based on K. B. Pyle's THE MAKING OF MODERN JAPAN.
Paper Introduction:
This research examines the emergence of political institutions in Japan in the 1910s and 1920s and the impact of political development in the country as a consequence of the way in which the institutions developed. One view of the dynamics is that through the 1920s Japan was developing democratic institutions at home and emerging as a status-quo-oriented country in geopolitical terms, and that the economic downturn in the 1920s affected internal politics in ways that enabled the rise of a policy of militarist imperialism and ultimately to the geopolitical aggressions of the 1930s. Other interpretations are also possible, as this research will show.
The forces driving Japanese national development in the first decades of the 20th century can be distinguished from the aggressive position of Japan in the 1930s and 1940s. Rule by oliga

Paper Abstract:
Need for Japan to become less dependent on the United States. Argues that Japan should shift its foreign policy posture to become increasingly independent of U.S. power. American protectiveness of Japan's political system during the Cold War. Insulation of Japan from the realities of geopolitical responsibility.
Paper Introduction:
It is in Japan’s interests to fundamentally shift its foreign policy posture so as to become less dependent on, and less subordinate to, the United States. Japan would be better off if it were to become a more independent “normal” nation. That thesis represents a conclusion reached as a consequence of reviewing a body of political-science literature that indicates the potential for Japan to become increasingly independent of US power and that suggests more obvious Japanese independence can serve both Japan and the US well.
In recent years, it has been asserted in the literature that Japan ought to “come into its own” on a more aggressive basis than has been the case since World War II. For example, ` makes a case for the idea that a thoroughly independent and strong Japan “is in America’s best interests” (39), even though there

Paper Abstract:
Compares Japan & Mexico. Regulatory action of private financial systems, banking reform, deregulation in Japan; Mexican banking sector & impact of NAFTA.
Paper Introduction:
The commercial banking and financial sectors of Japan and Mexico are compared. The commercial banking and financial sectors in both countries are privately (as opposed to governmentally) owned; however, government in each country exercises high levels of control over the commercial banking and financial sectors through regulatory action.
Deregulation in the Japanese financial system was initiated in the late-1970s. The process of financial liberalization in Japan has been slow and deliberate over the past 23 years. A major focus of the deregulation policy has been to improve the efficiency of Japanese corporate finance. The policy developments stemmed largely from pressures external to the Japanese domestic banking sector itself, such as the substantial increase in government debt as a result of changes in the flow of fu

Paper Introduction:
JAPAN'S EMPERORS: 1930S and 1940s TO THE PRESENT
This research paper examines the controversial role of the Emperor Hirohito (r. 1926-1989) in Japan during the period leading up to and during the Second World War, as compared his role and that of his successor Akihito thereafter.
For more than a millennium and long before American Commodore Matthew Perry's black warships entered Tokyo Bay in 1853-1854, the Imperial Throne served as an important symbol of religious, cultural and political unity as a distinctive Japanese sense of identity emerged. However, Japanese emperors reigned more than they ruled, as others exercised power in their name. Hirohito was a grandson of the Emperor Meiji (r. 1868-1912) through whom the founders of the Meiji Restoration responded to the challenge of the West by modernizing rapidly

Examines the Japanese health care system to determine its structure, costs, & success in reaching a wide population.
Paper Introduction:
INTRODUCTION
The health care system in modern Japan has long been supported by government and private companies which have offered assistance for the ill or otherwise disabled and for the old. Beginning in the 1920s, the government enacted a series of welfare programs that were based primarily on European models and that provided medical care and financial support to those in need. The insurance systems in Japan are complex and involve a mixture of public and private funding. The health care system in Japan will be examined to determine its structure, its costs, and its success at reaching the widest population.

Paper Abstract:
Explores the role of the emperor in Japanese society, & the transformation of this role following World War II.
Paper Introduction:
The emperor of Japan has fulfilled a number of roles and functions in terms of position in the government and as ceremonial head of the state. The Japanese derived from the Chinese the concept of an all-powerful monarchy and tried early in their history to transform their native, semisacred leader into a secular ruler of the Chinese type. Ever since that time the Japanese emperor has theoretically had the dual nature and functions of a religious leader of the native Shinto cults and the secular monarch of a Chinese-type state. In practice, though, he has rarely operated in the second capacity, and by the seventh century the emperor was already largely a symbol of authority rather than a wielder of personal power (Reischauer, 1988, pp. 44-45).

Paper Introduction:
In the 19th and 20th centuries, the role of the emperor of Japan has gone through a change from the way the imperial ruler was originally developed, and after World War II the greatest change of all was brought about by the new constitution imposed by the American Occupation. The Meiji period in the 19th century was the beginning of the rapid development of economic life in Japan, a period of modernization and of the emergence of new elites based on expertise and technical knowledge. The Revolution of 1868 was a restoration to power of the Imperial dynasty, leading to the Meiji period lasting into this century. The leaders of the Restoration were young samurai of the great western fiefs who became a self-perpetuating oligarchy more influential in the Meiji government than the Emperor himself.

Paper Abstract:
"The Tale of Genji" is used to describe the basic social features of the Heian period in Japanese history. Discussion of culture, court politics, & the differences between rural & urban settings.
Paper Introduction:
The Heian period in Japanese history covers the end of the eighth century through to the early part of the tenth century. This period is the same as is represented in The Tale of Genji, as Ivan Morris notes. In addition, it was a period of both court aristocracy, as described by Mikiso Hane, and of a culture whose tone was set by women, as emphasized by Morris. The Tale of Genji is described by Morris as the "first psychological novel in the literature of the world" (265); it is also representative of some social changes taking place at that time, with specific reference to spiritual issues.
The establishment of the Heian period dates from the move of the capital to Kyoto, then known as Heiankyo; the era lasted until the establishment of the military government in Kamakura in 1185:

Operations Management and Just-In-Time Production
Introduction
Operations management is defined as the performance of the managerial activities entailed in selection, design, operating, controlling, and updating production systems (Chase & Aquilano, 1973). "Selection involves the strategic decision of choosing the process by which some good or service is to be made or performed. For example, in a steel mill that produces railway wheels, the choice may be between forging or casting the wheels. "Design" encompasses the tactical decisions involved in the creation of methods to carry out a production operation. In the steel mill, for example, such decisions would regard the form and content of jobs to be performed and the type of service and control activities

Paper Introduction:
There has been a great deal of Japanese industrial expansion since World War II which has been noted by other industrialized nations around the world. Japan began from a position far behind the West, with a devastated infrastructure. Yet over time the country became a major economic power, challenging the United States and other industrialized nations for world leadership in innovation and industrial production. This is especially true in high-tech industries. The U.S. has recently started giving Japan greater attention. Companies in the U.S. study management styles used in Japan and try use them to increase the success of their operations. There has also been a move to increase in Japanese investment in the U.S., with the opening of Japanese manufacturing companies in the U.S.

Paper Abstract:
Looks at social, political, & economic features of the Meiji Restoration period & the Post-World War II occupation period in Japan.
Paper Introduction:
The structure of Japanese society has been forcibly changed on different occasions during its history. Two such instances can be found in the Meiji Restoration at the end of the nineteenth century and in the Post-War Occupation period after World War II. The two are related in that the occupation forces in Japan after the war wanted Japan to be democratized as well as demilitarized. The occupation forces believed that to do this it was necessary to institute a far reaching renovation of virtually the entire pre-war Japanese state. In turn, this required an examination of everything that caused Japan's Greater East Asian War as it was rooted in the ideals and institutions of the Meiji state established in the latter part of the nineteenth century.
The Meiji period was the beginning of the development of economic life in Japan at a much more rapid pace. This was also a perio

Paper Abstract:
Compares & contrasts the Japanese & American employment systems. Focuses on how the 2 systems developed & how the Japanese system could benefit American business.
Paper Introduction:
The Japanese employment system has been described by some as the result of cultural norms encouraging high commitment, reciprocity, and conformity, but Andrew Gordon takes the opposing view that these practices are actually an economic response. He traces this system back to its roots in pre-war Japan, showing how the system developed from a different system in the era of World War I and the 1920s into something closer to the current system because of the interplay of economic forces.
The Japanese system offers many observable Japanese managerial practices which can be reduced to three underlying factors:
1) a long-run planning horizon;
2) a commitment to lifetime employment; and
3) a sense of collective responsibility.

Paper Introduction:
The Industrialization and Modernization of Japan
Japan as a World Power Player has only been on the international scene since 1853, which was the year that US Naval Admiral Oliver Hazard Perry parked his fleet of gunboats in Tokyo Bay and ordered the reclusive Emperor to abandon its 250 years of splendid isolation and accept the philosophy of the West. Seldom has a country's historical record had such a clear and jolting turning point (Mallaby, 1994, J-3).
Before that historic year, Japan was literally frozen in feudalism, a country where lords were bound to each other by ties of vassalage and where peasants surrendered part of their crops as feudal dues. After that year began a period of "Western awareness" unequaled in any study of the importance of economic geography. This discussion will trace the relentless

Paper Abstract:

Paper Introduction:
The History of Toyota Motors
In its review of entrepreneurs of the 20th century, the World Press Review (1996) named Eiji Toyoda one of the top ten entrepreneurs of this century. He is not the beginning of the story of Toyota, however, nor its endpoint.
In the beginning was Sakichi Toyoda, who was followed by Kiichiro Toyoda. Sakichi Toyoda began his entrepreneurial activities during the 19th century, but he established the basic philosophy for Toyota and some of its long standing principles. Sakichi developed the first pillar of the Toyota production system, while Kiichiro developed its second pillar (see Chart I).
It was Sakichi who developed the principle of autonomation, which he initially applied to the textile industry. His focus was

Reviews the close support & assistance that Toyota has always received from the Japanese government & the resultant conflict that has created between the Japanese & US governments.
Paper Introduction:
Toyota and Government Policy
Introduction
From the beginning, Toyota has had the support and assistance of the Japanese government in its development. That assistance enabled it to become competitive enough to make major inroads on the automotive industry in the United States, which brought it into conflict with the U.S. government. The contemporary conflict between the two governments over the issue of protectionism and free trade is exemplified by this case.
Protective Legislation
The initial protective legislation was adopted in May of 1936. This was the automobile manufacturing business law which indicated that all business in the automotive industry required a government

Paper Introduction:
A STUDY OF THE JAPANESE BANKING INDUSTRY
Introduction
Rohwer (1998) paints a disturbing picture of the Japanese Banking Industry. He states that “much has happened in America's S&L crisis in the early 1990s, bad banks need to be shut down or taken over, good banks recapitalized, bad loans written off, and the collateral underlying them (usually real estate) disposed of at fire sale prices” (Rohwer, 1998, 22). Most theorists and analysts point out that the bad debt problem of Japanese banks could amount to upwards of 25% of that country’s GDP, implying that a solution (if available) is “bound to be enormously painful and costly” (Rohwer, 1998, 22).
Also in 1998, the year that the Japanese banking system proposed a plan (of sorts) for bailing out the economy, the Economist in

Paper Introduction:
The Economy of Japan
Japan has the second largest economy in the world. Its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) totaled $4,193US billion in 1997 ($33,317US per capita). Thus, the Japanese enjoy a very high standard of living. Japan’s foreign exchange reserves are the largest in the world ($203.22US billion in 1998) and Japan is the world's largest creditor. Labor productivity is one of the highest in the world and the labor market is regulated by the 1947 Employment Security Law. The Ministry of Labour seeks to prevent excessive dislocation or job mobility among workers, and employment services (such as employment agencies) are therefore tightly controlled.
Despite these successes, the Japanese economy has experienced a downturn in the 1990s. Growth has slowed, average annual GDP growth falling

Paper Introduction:
INTRODUCTION
Japan was a country isolated form the rest of the world for most of her history. Japan is an island, making it difficult to access, and this fact also separated it from most of the history of other Asian nations. This began to change when the first European ships arrived and sought trade with different parts of Asia. Japan resisted for a time, but eventually the Japanese began to see certain defense and trade advantages in making alliances with different countries. One of the major sources for this effort was a fear of Russia and a desire to keep Russia at bay. The United States was the first to try to open Japan to the outside world, but Britain also became interested in a defense and trade alliance with Japan and with China and so sought the means to accomplish such an agreement. At the end of the

Paper Abstract:
Examines various private & public funding approaches which reflect high quality & quanity of nation's educational offerings.
Paper Introduction:
Japanese society's ability and willingness to pay for schooling is the single most important factor that affects the quality and quantity of its education system. Japan is a learning society; education plays an important role in the Japanese self-identity. The excess demand for education that cannot be met by the public sector is readily met by Japan's private sector.
In Japan, children are only required to complete nine years of compulsory education, from age six through age fifteen. Compulsory education in Japan, like in the United States, is free. Public schools are completely funded by the government, mostly the Ministry of Education, Science, and Culture, commonly known as the Ministry of Education.
Funding for compulsory education in Japan differs from the

Paper Abstract:
History & evolution of instruction from 19th Cent., focusing on English since WWII. Political, cultural, practical aspects.
Paper Introduction:
Foreign language instruction in Japanese schools has historically been stimulated by Japan's nationalistic interests. During the Tokugawa period, Western languages were taught to Japan's future military specialists. During the Meiji period, the emphasis on nation building and modernization led to an influx of Western influence and the need for the acquisition of foreign language skills among the elite. Instruction in Western language ceased as Japan geared itself for World War II. The post-World War II allied occupation of Japan witnessed a renewal of the trend toward Westernization but a conservative backlash occurred shortly afterward in which foreign language instruction was de-emphasized. Today, Japan's government has set a course of modernization for the country, with the intent that Japan achieve full participation in the global community. As part of this

Paper Abstract:
Causes & negative & positive effects of intense competition in nation's elite high schools & colleges.
Paper Introduction:
The culture of competition at certain levels of Japanese education is all-consuming. Once the Japanese student completes compulsory education, he or she is confronted with formidable entrance examinations for high school and college. Ironically, the student's school experiences prior to and after the onset of this "examination hell" are characterized by a marked lack of competition. The Japanese grade school student enjoys considerable support both from teachers and peers in the classroom. The Japanese college student encounters minimal academic demands. Only students fighting for the few available slots in the elite high schools and colleges participate in Japan's relentless culture of competition.
The intense competition in Japanese education appears a contradiction for a society that values egalitarianism, group
