This was the second summit, following the historic meeting held in Tokyo in December 2003 at which the Tokyo Declaration for the Dynamic and Enduring Japan-ASEAN Partnership in the New Millennium and the Japan-ASEAN Plan of Action were adopted. Specifically, the 2003 summit emphasized Japanese support for reinforcing ASEAN integration, enhancing the economic competitiveness of ASEAN member countries, and addressing transnational issues. Building on the achievements of the previous decade, the 2013 commemo- rative summit broadened the scope of ASEAN-Japan partnership by calling for bilateral cooperation for peace and stability, prosperity, quality of life, and “heart-to-heart” understanding, in the Vision Statement on ASEAN- Japan Friendship and Cooperation: Shared Vision, Shared Identity, Shared Future. The 2013 summit also produced a joint statement titled Hand in Hand, Facing Regional and Global Challenges. In the midst of these significant government-level developments, a multi- national study group comprising a group of scholars from ASEAN member states and Japan was established in September 2012 with the support of the Japan-ASEAN Integration Fund (JAIF). This group has engaged in two phases of extensive and comprehensive research. The first phase of study, which lasted from September 2012 to November 2013, focused on how ASEAN-Japan strategic partnership could strengthen the process of building the ASEAN Community. The outcome, including policy recommenda- tions, was reported in Beyond 2015: ASEAN-Japan Strategic Partnership for Democracy, Peace, and Prosperity in Southeast Asia, which was presented to the respective governments of ASEAN and Japan in time for the 2013 ASEAN-Japan Commemorative Summit. Aptly enough, the second phase of our study, which started in June 2013, has dealt with ASEAN-Japan strategic partnership in East Asia and in global governance, the importance of which the 2013 ASEAN-Japan 5 6 | NAVIGATING CHANGE Commemorative Summit highlighted explicitly. This volume looks into these themes both conceptually and in practical terms, with a view to contributing to the advancement of ASEAN-Japan cooperation beyond Southeast Asia. The importance of these Track 2 efforts was initially raised during informal consultations held in Jakarta and Tokyo in 2010 among Tadashi Yamamoto (the late president of the Japan Center for International Exchange [JCIE]), Hitoshi Tanaka (chairman of the Institute for International Strategy, Japan Research Institute, and senior fellow, JCIE), Surin Pitsuwan (then secretary- general of ASEAN), Jusuf Wanandi (co-founder and vice chairman of the Centre for Strategic and International Studies [CSIS], Indonesia), Takio Yamada (then Japan’s ambassador to ASEAN), and ourselves. As a result, in mid-2012, with support from the Indonesian government and the JAIF, CSIS and JCIE launched this two-phase study project. The second phase of the study examined the ways in which ASEAN-Japan cooperation can contribute to the creation of an East Asian order that is peaceful, prosperous, and governed by the rule of law, and to addressing global issues for better global governance. A preparatory meeting was held in Bali, Indonesia, in June 2013; a research meeting to discuss 17 research papers was organized in Jakarta in February 2014; and, in June 2014, the final meeting of the co-chairs was held in Tokyo, along with a roundtable with the Japanese policy community. A short report making policy recom- mendations was released in time for the 2014 ASEAN-Japan Summit, and this volume compiles the more detailed papers that were developed to complete this second and final phase. We would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere gratitude to the project supervisors, Jusuf Wanandi and Hitoshi Tanaka, for their insight and guidance in this process; to the co-chairs, Mely Caballero- Anthony (head of the Centre for Non-Traditional Security Studies at Nanyang Technological University’s S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies), Chikako Kawakatsu Ueki (professor, Waseda University), Djisman Simandjuntak (professor, Prasetiya Mulya Business School), and Toshiya Hoshino (professor, Osaka University), for their dedication to and leadership of the study groups; to the project managers, Clara Joewono (vice chair, CSIS, Indonesia) and Hideko Katsumata (executive director and COO, JCIE), for their thoughtful input and for shepherding this project to completion so effectively; and to the invaluable contributions of the study group members. Thanks also to the members of CSIS and JCIE who have worked tirelessly to bring this project to fruition, includ- ing Lina Alexandra, Iis Gindarsah, Tomoko Suzuki, Kana Yoshioka, Kim Gould Ashizawa, Susan Hubbard, Patrick Ishiyama, Kaede Kawauchi, and Preface | 7 Serina Bellamy. We are also deeply grateful to the JAIF for its support of this project. On behalf of all those

Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract The thesis seeks to examine whether the concept of the British policy network framework helps to explain policy change in Japan. For public policy studies in Japan, such an examination is significant because the framework has been rarely been used in analysis of Japanese policy. For public policy studies in Britain and elsewhere, such an examination would also bring benefits as it would help to answer the important question of whether it can be usefully applied in the other contexts.

  • Disability and Career Services Provision for Students With
    Journal of Postsecondary Education and Disability, 30(1), 61-81 61 Disability and Career Services Provision for Students with Disabilities at Institutions of Higher Education in Japan: An Overview of Key Legislation, Policies, and Practices Heike Boeltzig-Brown1 Abstract In 2013, the Japanese government passed antidiscrimination legislation that, starting in April 2016, requires all national and public institutions of higher education (IHEs) to accommodate students with disabilities. The legislative mandate to ensure that higher education is accessible to students with disabilities, coupled with growth in the number of students with disabilities attending university or college, increases pressure on Japa- nese policymakers to build the capacity of their higher education system. The paper provides an overview of key legislation and policies in disability and higher education in Japan, followed by a description of the cur- rent state of cross-disability services provision at Japanese IHEs. Included is a focus on career development and employment (career services provision), as these are critical aspects of comprehensive supports for stu- dents with disabilities in higher education. The paper is based on a review of current literature and secondary survey data, as well as key informant interviews with Japanese government officials, disability and career services personnel, and faculty directly involved in disability and career services provision at Japanese IHEs. It concludes with potential areas for Japan-United States learning and information sharing. Keywords: Disability, reasonable accommodations, disability services, career services, higher education, Japan Over the past decade many countries, including The article mandates nations to provide reasonable Japan, have recognized the importance of higher edu- accommodations to individuals with disabilities so cation as a stepping-stone to competitive employment that they can exercise their right.

  • The Anatomy of Japan's Shifting Security Orientation
    Tsuyoshi Sunohara The Anatomy of Japan’s Shifting Security Orientation On June 2, 2010, Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama’s farewell address included the parting shot that ‘‘I do not believe it is a good idea for Japan to depend on the United States for her security over the next 50 or 100 years.’’1 One could dismiss this as typical Hatoyama, who has repeatedly insisted that Japan should try to establish an ‘‘equal relationship’’ with the United States. Yet, it is not just one leader, but Japan itself that has been asking: can we survive as a responsible stakeholder in the twenty-first century given the status quo? A Twenty-Year Debate At the end of World War II, Japan adopted the so-called ‘‘Yoshida Doctrine’’ under which it would focus more on economic growth and rebuilding its infrastructure while effectively relying on the United States for its security. Japan’s first postwar prime minister, Shigeru Yoshida (1946—1947, 1948—1954), believed Japan needed to enshrine the new security arrangement through a formal pact. The U.S.—Japan Security Treaty was subsequently signed in 1960.2 Under the treaty’s framework, Japan was required to provide bases on its soil (Article VI) and later agreed to provide extensive financial host-nation support for U.S. forces. In return, the United States agreed to come to the defense of Japan if she was attacked (Article V). Unlike NATO, which treats an attack Tsuyoshi Sunohara is a senior writer with the Japanese newspaper Nikkei, and covers U.S.—Japan relations in Tokyo.

  • Dull Bull/ Philosopher Prime Minster and Intellectuals Looking at the Prime Minster Ohira Policy Research Council
    Dull Bull/ Philosopher Prime Minster and Intellectuals Looking at the Prime Minster Ohira Policy Research Council UNO Shigeki, Professor, Institute of Social Science, the University of Tokyo Introduction The first Ohira Masayoshi Cabinet was established in December 1978. At the beginning of his policy address to the Diet on 25 January 25 1979, Prime Minister Ohira made the following statement: In the more than 30 years that have passed since the end of World War II, Japan has focused single-mindedly on achieving economic affluence, and as a nation we have produced remarkable results. This represents the positive outcome of efforts that have continued for the 100 years since the Meiji period to modernize and model our country after Western nations. (Snip) However, we cannot really say that we have given our full attention to the harmony between man and nature, the balance between freedom and responsibility, and the purpose of life deeply rooted in our spirit. Today, people are quickly beginning to reflect more on these things. I believe this trend indicates that material civilization itself, UNO Shigeki, Professor, Institute of Social Science, the University of Tokyo based on urbanization and modern rationalism which originally brought about rapid economic growth, has reached its limit. We should accept that the days of modernization are behind us and that we have now entered a post-modern era. This era is one focused on culture, and represents a shift away from an era centered on the economy. The shift from modernization to post-modern, and from an economic-oriented era to one of culture.

We surveyed the neurological outcomes of Japanese adult patients with PKU to investigate the long-term effects and of and issues with NBS. Eighty-five patients with PKU aged over 19 years who continued to be treated with a phenylalanine-free amino acid formula were investigated by administering questionnaires regarding clinical characteristics, such as mental ability, education status, and therapeutic condition. Of the 85 subjects, 68 patients were detected by NBS (NBS group), while the other 17 were clinically diagnosed before the initiation of NBS (pre-NBS group). Further, 10 of the 68 NBS patients presented intellectual and/or psychiatric disabilities, 5 of whom had a history of treatment discontinuation; in contrast, 12 of the 17 pre-NBS patients presented with neuropsychiatric symptoms.
