  • Chapter 1. Relationships Between Japanese Economy and Land
    Part I Developments in Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Administration that Underpin Japan’s Economic Growth ~ Strategic infrastructure management that brings about productivity revolution ~ Section 1 Japanese Economy and Its Surrounding Conditions I Relationships between Japanese Economy and Land, Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Administration Relationships between Japanese Economy and Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Administration and Tourism Transport Relationships between Japanese Economy and Land, Infrastructure, Chapter 1, Relationships between Japanese Economy and Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Administration, on the assumption of discussions described in chapter 2 and following sections, looks at the significance of the effects infrastructure development has on economic growth with awareness of severe circumstances surrounding the Japanese economy from the perspective of history and statistical data. Section 1, Japanese Economy and Its Surrounding Conditions, provides an overview of an increasingly declining population, especially that of a productive-age population, to become a super aging society with an estimated aging rate of close to 40% in 2050, and a severe fiscal position due to rapidly growing, long-term outstanding debts and other circumstances. Section 2, Economic Trends and Infrastructure Development, looks at how infrastructure has supported peoples’ lives and the economy of the time by exploring economic growth and the history of infrastructure development (Edo period and post-war economic growth period). In international comparisons of the level of public investment, we describe the need to consider Japan’s poor land and severe natural environment, provide an overview of the stock effect of the infrastructure, and examine its impact on the infrastructure, productivity, and economic growth.

  • A Study on Ethics of Collective Responsibility in Japan's High
    Int. J. Sport Health Sci. Paper : Philosophy A Study on Ethics of Collective Responsibility in Japan's High School Baseball: An Examination from the Viewpoint of Communitarianism Mitsuharu Omine1 and Hidenori Tomozoe2 1Graduate School of Sport Sciences, Waseda University; Research Fellow of Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, 2-579-15, Mikajima, Tokorozawa, Saitama 359-1192, Japan E-mail: 20431604＠toki.waseda.jp 2Faculty of Sport Sciences, Waseda University, 2-579-15, Mikajima, Tokorozawa, Saitama 359-1192, Japan [Received December 21, 2012; Accepted June 10, 2013; Published online June 25, 2013] In this study, we focus on a discussion of whether collective responsibility in high school base- ball is right or wrong, analyzing the point at issue from the viewpoint of communitarianism and aiming to provide a new viewpoint for the argument. We selected the obligation concept as a concrete perspective for our analysis and used it to examine the point at issue. The crucial issue was whether a person who is a member of a baseball club should take respon- sibility for the actions of other members of the same baseball club. First, we reviewed criticism of communitarianism to moral individualism. Second, we clariˆed the obligation concept as de- ˆned by Sandel, who is a representative of the communitarian viewpoint. Finally, we used that concept to frame the issue mentioned above. As a result, we propose that members of a baseball club have obligations of solidarity toward one another in terms of their communities, which in this case are both the baseball club and the school. Keywords: moral individualism, MacIntyre, narrative conception, Sandel, obligations of solidarity 1.
