PUBLICATIONS Publications Asia and Europe: Cooperating for Energy Security François Godement, Françoise Nicolas, and Taizo Yakushiji, eds. Because of broad similarities in their economies, energy security—the availability of energy at all times, in various forms, in sufficient quanti- ties, and at affordable prices—is an issue of common concern for Asia and Europe. Any option chosen by one region will necessarily reverberate in the other. In particular, the rise in energy demand in Asia, most of all in China, will have obvious implications for Europe, as well as for the rest of the world. This report from the Council for Asia-Europe Cooperation (CAEC) task force on energy security examines the strategic implications of each region’s choices for the other region, compares existing and poten- tial schemes for regional cooperation, and defines areas for interregional cooperation. For example, one significant finding of the task force, a group comprised of Asian and European political scientists and economists, was a need for expertise transfer from the more advanced to the less advanced countries in the partnership. (English: JCIE, 2004) Asia and Europe: Global Governance as a Challenge to Co-operation William Wallace and Young Soogil, eds. The end of the Cold War and the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, have brought about profound changes in international politics. The world is in desperate need of a new system of global governance, a structure for consultation and cooperation among states to maintain global order, to contain disorder, to promote global prosperity through shared manage- ment of an open world economy, and to address the difficult issues of global equity, rights, and justice.

Report of the CULCON Education Task Force
Report of the CULCON Education Task Force Minoru Makihara Thierry Porté Japan CULCON Chair U.S. CULCON Chair Senior Corporate Advisor Managing Director, Mitsubishi Corporation J. C. Flowers and Co., LLC 35 Report of the CULCON Education Task Force Executive Summary The U.S.-Japan Alliance is the cornerstone of prosperity, peace, security and stability in the Asia-Pacific region. This partnership, based on a common commitment to democracy, the rule of law, open societies, human rights, security, and free and open markets, has underwritten the dynamic growth and prosperity of the region for 60 years. The bedrock of the partnership is the close bond between our people, which remains the greatest resource for our Alliance. For nurturing the bonds between Japan and the United States, student exchanges have a central place. In this context, educational and cultural exchanges between Japan and the United States have been vital to build the strong partnership that exists today. At the same time, student exchanges help Japan and the United States to address the global challenges as partners with shared values, and to enhance the global competitiveness of both countries. However, despite their importance, the pace of exchanges between Japan and the United States gives cause for serious concern. Over the past 15 years, there has been a 57 percent drop in the number of Japanese students studying in the United States, from over 47,000 students in 1997-1998 to fewer than 20,000 in 2011-2012. During the same period, Japan fell from being the number-one country of origin for foreign students on U.S.
