Research Abstract |
In this research project we analyzed the transformation of contemporary German political culture in relation with European integration. The project was interdisciplinary, conducted from various academic viewpoints such as those of history, literature, law, international relations, etc. Throughout the three-year-period respective investigator collected and analyzed basic materials and pursued his or her research theme. The results of individual studies were presented at the meetings, which were held six times a year, and discussed by the whole members. For example, Hosaka studied new literary and philosophical trends in the reunited Germany, with special attention to the struggle with memory by writers as the act of overcoming the past (Vergangenheitsbewaltigung). Ishida, a historian, regarded the various controversies over history as a mirror reflecting the transformation of contemporary German political culture, and analyzed their structural character. Kawamura, from the perspective of international relations, investigated the development of foreign cultural policy in modern Germany in relation with changing national Identities, Franco-German cultural cooperation, and European integration. Aizawa presented the interim report of the research project in the symposium held at Bochum University, Germany, in July 1999. In order to present the results of our project to the general public, we held two international symposia in January 1998 and September 1999, inviting respectively Dr. Frank Elbe (German Ambassador to Japan) and Dr. Werner Bergmann (professor of sociology at the Berlin Institute of Technology). In March 2000 Ishida takes part in an international symposium in the Berlin Institute of Technology, and presents the result of the project.
