Research Abstract |
This research project attempted to trace flows of knowledge on 'Japan' with its main focus on social sciences through examining its construction, distribution and consumption using quantitative and qualitative approaches. Our research shows that English language scholarship on 'Japan' is mostly constructed within certain North American and European institutions forming its core, that demand for Japanese studies programs continues to be high due to the global spread of Japanese popular culture, and that whilst there is disjuncture between scholarship in Japanese social sciences and that within Japanese studies abroad, Japanese scholars trained abroad ('hybrid scholars') may play a vital role in overcoming the divide. We held symposiums at the University of Oxford and Tokyo University of Foreign Studies to report on our research outcomes and to provide a forum for dialogues among researchers in Japan and abroad, part of which discussion has been made available online.
