    May 2, 2017 Japanese Academics' Open Letter to the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights on the April 19, 2016 "Preliminary Report by UN Special Rapporteur Professor David Kaye on the Right to Freedom ofOpinion and Expression in Japan" Your Highness Prince Zeid bin Ra'ad aI-Hussein, We respect your tremendous efforts over the past several decades in the field of international human rights. We particularly appreciate your great contribution in establishing the International Criminal Court aCC-CPD in 2003. Today, we issue our statement on UN Special Rapporteur on the Promotion and Protection of the Right to Freedom ofOpinion and Expression David Kaye's April 19, 2016 Preliminary Report on the Right to Freedom of Opinion and Expression in Japan (attached hereto). Given your long history of tireless work for justice and fairness, we respectfully ask that you read our statement. As we mention therein, we regret to say that we are very much disappointed with UN Special Rapporteur on the Promotion and Protection of the Right to Freedom of Opinion and Expression David Kaye's Preliminary Report on the Right to Freedom of Opinion and Expression in Japan. Prof. Kaye is very likely prejudiced against the Abe Administration; accordingly, his views are heavily biased, and his Report does a great disservice to the United Nations Human Rights Council which you so admirably oversee. The extremely deleterious effects of UN Special Rapporteur David Kaye's Preliminary Report are already evident in the Country Reports on Human Rights Practices for 2016 by the United States Department ofState (published March 3, 2017).

  • How Is Entrepreneurship Being Taught in Japanese Universities?
    The Josai Journal of Business Administration (), Vols. & , No., , Josai University Historical Aspects and Current Status of Entrepreneurship in Japanese Universities Masato Ono Josai University Abstract Since the Technology Licensing Organization (TLO) Act was enforced in 1998, entrepre- neurial activities have developed at an accelerating pace in Japanese universities. The move- ment has been shaped by the history of Japanese higher education and government policies. Japanese universities, once the academic arm of the Meiji imperial government, tried to become free from government and commercial influence after World War II. In the past two decades, under the broader needs of revitalization, Japanese universities have developed industry- university cooperation in which entrepreneurial activities are involved. These activities can be categorized into TLOs, university-based ventures and entrepreneurship education. The major findings are: (1) the entrepreneurship movement at Japanese universities is mainly exogenous, and attempts at commercialization are still met with opposition; (2) activities tend to be evalu- ated based on numerical results; and (3) although more than 200 Japanese universities now run programs or courses related to entrepreneurship, most are still immature and peripheral in nature. The movement will not be limited to commercialization of intellectual activities, and is an influen- tial axis for developing competence of students and researchers. Key Words: Entrepreneurship, Entrepreneurship Education, University, Venture, Japan . Backdrop: Entrepreneurship in American Universities Entrepreneurship education seeks toprovide students with the knowledge, skills and motivation to encourageentrepreneurial success in a variety of settings. As is widely known, entrepreneurship is one of the driving forces of the global economy and society. It generates ongoing innovation and improvement in goods, services, and varioussorts of our activities.

  • University Museums As Cultural Commons Interdisciplinary Research and Education in Museums
    University Museums as Cultural Commons Interdisciplinary Research and Education in Museums Book of Abstracts Keio University Art Center, Keio Museum Commons 9-10 September 2019 A university encompasses diverse cultures. Research and education in various disciplines generate autonomous collections which reflect unique cultural backgrounds of each academic field. A university museum is a place where these collections meet. Practices in museums —exhibitions, conservation, research, learning and so on— further reveal the cultural backgrounds of collections. Museums also gather and connect the members of communities surrounding the university ―students, faculties, researchers, alumni/ae, visitors―, and get them together through the discussion on collections. In this two-day seminar, we will explore the power of university museums which trigger interchanges of people and knowledge from different cultures, through a keynote panel, paper presentations and a poster session. We also offer visits to university museums and collections in Tokyo.
