This conference, the first to be held under the initiative of more than a dozen scholars in Japan specializing on the study of the Philippines, in conjunction with the International Committee on Philippine Studies Conferences will revolve around the theme of new dimensions in Philippine studies in Japan. More specifically, the conference hopes to address the similarities and differences that both Japan and the Philippines have shown in the historical and current global context. Having been under American occupation and control at different points in time, Japan and the Philippines share a similar colonial experience under a Western power, which has left an indelible imprint on both Japanese and Philippine societies. Postcolonial Japanese and Philippine societies still manifest vestiges of their common experience with American rule, while experiencing the growing interactions between them with respect to various cultural, political and economic issues. The conference will explore these multifaceted similarities, differences or interactions between the Philippines and Japan in the context of emerging multicultural societies in the Asia region at the starting decade of the 21st century. This will enable the conference participants to explore relatively newer but seemingly more complex issues involving both countries, such as the increasing number of Filipino residents in Japan, or Japanese cultural assimilation into Filipino society or vice versa, through intermarriage or labor migration. In this way we will acquire a better understanding of the current dynamics of Philippine-Japanese relationships. Please accept our deep gratitude for your cooperation and understanding, Sincerely yours, Yoshiko Nagano Yoshiko Nagano Chairperson The Organizing Committee of The First Philippine Studies Conference of Japan (PSCJ) 3 ♦ SESSIONS AND PAPER TITLES ♦ DAY 1: SATURDAY NOVEMBER 11, 2006 OPENING SESSION: 9:00A.M. – 9:50 A.M.
