In order to obtain membership an association is subject to an examination of its academic work. As of 2013, the Union had a membership of 63 associations, as listed on pp. 80-100. The aims and objectives of the Union are to support the scholarly activities of its member associations and to promote academic exchanges both among members themselves, and between Japanese and academic societies overseas. The main activities of the Union are: (1) the publication and distribution of academic material concerning Japanese economics and papers presented by member scholars, (2) the sending of members to overseas conferences, (3) the holding and supporting of international conferences in Japan, (4) providing financial assistance to member associations who invite foreign scholars to Japan, and (5) collecting information on activities of member associations and the issuing of a news bulletin. The Union published in 1974 Keizaigaku No Doko (The Trend in Japanese Economics), based on a survey of economic studies undertaken in postwar Japan. A supplementary volume covering Japanese economic studies after 1974 was published in 1982. The Union and the International Economic Association (IEA) jointly held the Fifth World Congress of the IEA in Tokyo from August 29 to September 3, 1978. The Union joined the International Institute of Public Finance in holding the Institute’s 37th Congress at Tokyo in September 1981. The Union dispatched 20 member scholars to the Eighth World Congress of IEA held in India in 1986. Most recently the Union successfully sponsored the IEA Tokyo Round Table Conference on “Institutions in a New Dynamic Society” held between 15 and 17 September 1987, and hosted the 1996 IEA Tokyo Round Table Conference between 16 and 19 December, on the theme “The Institutional Foundation of Economic Development in East Asia.” To celebrate its fiftieth anniversary, the Union held a special lecture meeting on May 25, 2000. Three lecturers were invited to speak on the theme, “The reforms that the 21st Century will bring to the world economy, the Japanese economy, and Japanese management.” To commemorate the 60th anniversary of this Association, a special lecture program was held at the Waseda University Okuma Auditorium on October 12, 2010. Three lecturers were invited, each of whom spoke from his own perspective on how Japan’s economy and Japanese business, in the midst of this once-in-a-century global recession, should solve their present plight and forge new routes for the future. The Union celebrated in 1980 the 30th anniversary of its founding by launching a variety of activities, including the publication of The Information Bulletin. Prof. Paul Snowden of Waseda University acts as editorial adviser.

History and General Characteristics of the Society The Agricultural Economics Society of Japan (the AESJ) was founded in 1924. The AESJ is now made up of around 1,600 members under a president and four vice-presidents with a board of managing directors. Main activities of the AESJ are as follows: A. Publishing the AESJ’s academic journals and other publications B. Holding the Annual Conference of the society C. Giving the AESJ’s academic awards to selected academic publications and papers D. Academic exchange in cooperation with related domestic and foreign societies A. Publishing the AESJ’s academic journals and other publications The Society issues three publications. The main journal, the Journal of Rural Economics, has been published quarterly since 1925, and it reached the 85th volume in July 2013. The latest issue is not only subscribed by the members of the Sciety but also sold at bookstores. Its contents consist of several articles, book reviews and other information for members. Once a year, usually the second issue published in September is exclusively composed to report the invited papers presented at the Annual Conference. Secondly, a Special issue: Journal of Rural Economics is published once a year. It will reach the 18th volume in December 2013. It consists of more than 80 short articles, which include the latest information and cutting-age methodologies. Based upon presentations at the Annual Conference, the authors revise their manuscripts by themselves incorporating the comments exchanged at the Conference and submit the revised manuscripts to the Journal. They are peer-reviewed and the only accepted papers are published. Starting in 2014, the only Japanese articles are published in this Special Issue. Thirdly, the Japanese Journal of Rural Economics (JJRE) is an English language journal. It has reached 15th volume in March 2013. Currently, it is published once a year. Starting in 2014, the JJRE includes not only the ordinary articles, book reviews, etc. but also those presented in English at the Annual Conference using the same procedure for the Special Issue for the Japanese articles. 1 B. Holding the Annual Conference of the society The focal point of the Society’s activities is the Annual Conference held at the end of March every year. The conference lasts for two or three days. Usually, on the first day, a Symposium is held, while on the next day, oral presentations and poster sessions by individual members are held. Recently, in addition to these traditional two events, a Mini-Symposium and an international joint session with oversea societies such as the Agricultural Economics Societies of Korea, China and Taiwan, are regularly held. C. Giving the AESJ’s academic awards to selected academic publications and papers There are three categories of awards granted by the society, that is, the Academic Award, the Encouragement Award (for younger generations) and the Distinguished Paper Award. D. Academic exchange in cooperation with related domestic and foreign societies Within these activities, exchanges with foreign societies are mainly carried out at the Annual Conference as above mentioned. 2. Major topics discussed at recent Annual Symposiums and related sessions 2-1. 2008 Annual Conference The Annual Conference was held at Utsunomiya University. The Symposium, with the theme of “Rural societies under economic globalization: Searching for various ways to their development” was chaired by Toyonobu SATO (Okayama University) and Nobukazu TANIGUCHI (University of Tokyo). Selected speakers were Eiichi SHIGA (Hokkaido University), Mitsuyoshi ANDO (University of Tokyo), Susumu FUKUDA (Kyushu University) and Takeshi MIYAZAKI (Kyoto Prefectural University).
