Course Objectives and Outline Financial Accounting is a critical element of economic infrastructure, which is to provide financial information about an entity for its stakeholders and thus fulfill its accountability obligation. In Japan, the financial accounting consists of two systems; the financial reporting system under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act and the statutory reporting system under the Companies Act. Financial reports in these systems must be prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) of Japan. Moreover, those systems are interrelated with the tax accounting system. In this course, the students will study the basic and advanced concepts, frameworks and rules of Japan GAAP and its relationship with the society and the economy. Though the concepts and rules of the IFRS are regarded as a part of Japan GAAP, the students are also required to study other elements of Japan GAAP, including the concepts and rules of Japanese tax accounting systems. In addition, we’ll discuss about the fundamental and advanced topics on international accounting and auditing theories in this lecture course. 2. Learning Goal In this lecture course, students are expected to develop their capabilities to understand intermediate level of financial accounting issues. In addition, we’d like to learn about current auditing and international accounting issues. 3.

  • Urban Fictions of Early Modern Japan: Identity, Media, Genre
    Urban Fictions of Early Modern Japan: Identity, Media, Genre Thomas Gaubatz Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Thomas Gaubatz All rights reserved ABSTRACT Urban Fictions of Early Modern Japan: Identity, Media, Genre Thomas Gaubatz This dissertation examines the ways in which the narrative fiction of early modern (1600- 1868) Japan constructed urban identity and explored its possibilities. I orient my study around the social category of chōnin (“townsman” or “urban commoner”)—one of the central categories of the early modern system of administration by status group (mibun)—but my concerns are equally with the diversity that this term often tends to obscure: tensions and stratifications within the category of chōnin itself, career trajectories that straddle its boundaries, performative forms of urban culture that circulate between commoner and warrior society, and the possibility (and occasional necessity) of movement between chōnin society and the urban poor. Examining a range of genres from the late 17th to early 19th century, I argue that popular fiction responded to ambiguities, contradictions, and tensions within urban society, acting as a discursive space where the boundaries of chōnin identity could be playfully probed, challenged, and reconfigured, and new or alternative social roles could be articulated. The emergence of the chōnin is one of the central themes in the sociocultural history of early modern Japan, and modern scholars have frequently characterized the literature this period as “the literature of the chōnin.” But such approaches, which are largely determined by Western models of sociocultural history, fail to apprehend the local specificity and complexity of status group as a form of social organization: the chōnin, standing in for the Western bourgeoisie, become a unified and monolithic social body defined primarily in terms of politicized opposition to the ruling warrior class.

  • Those Almond-Eyed Children of the Far East
    Those almond-eyed children of the Far East. An exploration of japonist thought and Japanophilia in fin-de-siècle Nordic painters. Word count: 28948 Charlotte Van Hulle Student number: 01504426 Supervisor(s): Prof. Dr. Mick Deneckere A dissertation submitted to Ghent University in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Oriental Languages and Cultures–Japanese Language and Culture. Academic year: 2019–2020 PREAMBLE CONCERNING COVID-19 Due to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic of 2020, it should be kept in mind that the research conducted for the purpose of this thesis could not take place as originally intended. The outbreak of the pandemic had direct consequences for the process of completing this master’s thesis—at the time when I began my research, I resided in Finland as a student at the University of Helsinki. A significant part of this thesis relied on the access to source material, as well as access to translation by native speakers of Finnish and Swedish, that this location provided. However, due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus, I was unable to stay in Finland, and saw myself forced to leave the country. Before the borders closed, I flew out to Sweden, to be with my partner and family-in-law during this crisis. I was, overall, among those fortunate enough to be able to move ahead with their research throughout the pandemic. That is, no field work was conducted for the purpose of this thesis’ argument, meaning that closed borders and national lockdowns had no bearing on my research as such.
