This road was the only road between Shonai and the inland area. It was a precipitous mountain road from Tsuruoka city to Yamagata city passing over Matsune, Juo-toge, Oami, Sainokami-toge, Tamugimata and Oguki-toge, then going through Shizu, Hondoji and Sagae. It is said to have existed already in ancient times, but it is not clear when this road was opened. The oldest theory says that this road was opened as a governmental road connecting the Dewa Kokufu government which was located in Fujishima town (now Tsuruoka city) and the county offices of the Mogami and Okitama areas.

I had the chance to study in Tohoku Fukushi University from April to July 2018. I was very happy because it was a dream come true for me to come to Japan, and even more, I have not thought that I will be able to live there. But living there was not easy for me, and felt like everything was very complicated. I think it applies to everyone who comes to a stranger land, even though you feel like you know the culture very well as you have read books, you will be still be culture shocked. Thanks to the help of the staffs in the International centre who had helped me a lot and guided me throughout the exchange. Due to my experience, it motivated me to make this guide so as to help future exchange students to be more prepared before coming to Japan. This guide is made for you, exchange student from Laurea University applied sciences going to Tohoku Fukushi University. I hope that this guide will be of help to you!

(Former General Manager of Transport Safety Department) Even since the company was founded, "Safety" has been ranked as the top priority item for management, and all employees of the company have been making a unified effort to create a reliable railway system that will win the confidence of passengers. As a result, the number of railway operating accidents has been reduced to less than 40 percent what it was immediately after the company was founded. We are now committed to further improvement of safety based on the "New Frontier 21" as a medium-term buisiness plan of the JR East group. To improve the "Safety" of the entire JR East group, it is important for 1 Introduction each organization to take a positive stance in achieving safety.

  • Civilian Application of Wartime Military
    SWORDS INTO PLOWSHARES: CIVILIAN APPLICATION OF WARTIME MILITARY TECHNOLOGY IN MODERN JAPAN, 1945-1964 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Takashi Nishiyama, M.A. The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Professor James R. Bartholomew, Adviser Approved by Professor Philip C. Brown _____________________________ Professor John. F. Guilmartin, Jr. Graduate Program in History ABSTRACT This dissertation examines civilian application of military technology in Japan after World War II. As a case study, I focus on the historical metamorphosis of wartime technology ― such as military aircraft deployed for kamikaze suicide missions― into the highly successful Shinkansen high-speed bullet train. In retrospect, the shift in the socio-technological landscape in Japan after 1945 was drastic, spectacular, and unprecedentedly successful. Employing a bottom-up approach, I highlight the decentralized character of Japan’s conversion process from wartime to postwar eras. Specifically, I examine the roles of former military engineers in the public research and development sector at the grass roots-level. The crucial variable in the conversion process, I argue, was the remarkable adaptability and flexibility of these engineers and their knowledge, especially in support of Japan’s technological development. The course of the technological transformation was neither obvious nor preordained. It was largely idiosyncratic and contingent on numerous individual decisions and actions within the engineering community. At least the bullet train and other modern technological artifacts were a product of such ii development; postwar technological artifacts were essentially amalgamations, reproductions, and reconfigurations of pre-1945 technologies with little orchestrated effort from the top.
