From the 1970s to the 1980s, Japan gained confidence in its ability to “make things” because consumers around the world embraced its manufactured products such as electric home appliances and automobiles with open arms in preference to the products of other advanced countries. However, at the beginning of the Heisei era, the bubble in the Japanese economy suddenly burst and Japan’s gross national product (GNP) plummeted, resulting in what is termed “the burst of economic bubble of 1990.” Relatively cheaper manufactured products from other Asian countries gained precedence over Japanese products. In response, many Japanese manufacturers moved their production plants to other Asian countries, particularly settling in mainland China, where labor costs were lower than in Japan. The recession was protracted and the Japanese people suffered from a sense low confidence in their abilities to overcome the recession. By the late 1990s, Prime Ministers Mori and, subsequently, Koizumi responded to Japanese political leader Heizo Takenaka’s advocacy of an information technology (IT) revolution in Japan as a way to beat the recession.

Introduction On November 17, 2014, the news that the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) added the Pacific Bluefin tuna (PBF) to its Red List of Threatened Species as “Vulnerable,” which meant that it was threatened with extinction, made headlines and received substantial TV coverage around Japan. After citing the IUCN’s comment that the species was extensively targeted by the fishing industry for the predominant sushi and sashimi markets in Asia, Mainichi Shimbun, one of the major newspapers in Japan, reported that the population was estimated to have declined by 19 to 33% over the past 22 years1. Nihon Keizai Shimbun, a leading Japanese economic newspaper, referring to the fact that the American eel was also added to the List as “Endangered,” pointed out that

Among other ideas, Eastern aesthetics suggests that ordered structure contrives, that logical exposition falsifies, and that linear, consecutive argument eventually limits. As the aesthetician Itoh Teiji has stated regard­ ing the difficultiesthat Japanese experience in defin­ ing aesthetics: "Thedilemma we face is that our grasp is intuitive and perceptual rather than rational and logical:' Aesthetic enjoyment recognizes artistic pat­ terns, but such patterns cannot be too rigid or too circumscribed. Most likely to succeed in definingJapanese aes­ thetics is a net of associations composed of listings or jottings, connected intuitively, that fills in a back­ ground and renders the subject visible.

  • Japanese Gardens Outside of Japan: from the Export of Art to the Art of Export
    UR BA NIS TI KA IR AR CHI TEK TŪ RA TOWN PLAN NING AND AR CHI TEC TU RE ISSN 1392-1630 print / ISSN 1648-3537 online 2011 35(3): 212–221 doi:10.3846/tpa.2011.22 JAPANESE GARDENS OUTSIDE OF JAPAN: FROM THE EXPORT OF ART TO THE ART OF EXPORT Gintaras Stauskis Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Pylimo g. 29/Trakų g. 1, 01132 Vilnius, Lithuania E-mail: [email protected] Submitted 1 May 2011 Abstract. Since the 19th century, a Japanese garden as a cultural phenomenon with a millennium-old history of religion and phi- losophy-based landscaping art has been exported to different regions of the globe and built in countries far from the land of its origin. The article focuses on two aspects of Japanese gardens: the basic and more specific principles of planning and design of a traditional Japanese garden, and the related discourse of a tradition of exporting its planning and design cultural tradition outside of Japan. Based on analysed international examples of Japanese-style gardens, the specific traits of planning the landscape of these gardens were identified. The narrative of multiple psycho-emotional effects that these gardens have on their users and visitors is disclosed in correlation with the specific aspects of their planning and design. The culture of exporting a Japanese garden tradition overseas is discussed and the important principles for introducing a Japanese garden to a remote cultural context are spotlighted. The concluding remarks on the user-oriented culture of exporting a Japanese garden as a complete planning and design system of landscape architecture, reflect author’s aspiration to open a wider cross-professional discussion and research on the topic.
