| Research Abstract |
Globalization has brought tremendous changes into Asian societies, and as a result of that, nations-states have been undergoing the various processes of reorganization. This project is a joint research to analyze this trend in all over Asia as well as in comparison with other areas, including Europe and U.S.
The research fund was used for four purposes : 1)to do field trips in Asia, Europe and U.S. ; 2)to collect historical materials, data sources, books, visual resources such as DVDs, videos and photographs. 3)to hold periodical meetings among members ; 4)to support research with PC, PC related goods and other stationeries. As a leader, I made best efforts to allocate the fund not only by making priorities among individual plans but also by dividing fairly for each member.
In the second year and the third, post-project, year, we shared a great deal of information and ideas among members by holding several meetings. Five of us presented or commented at the annual meeting of Japanese Comparative Politics Association under the same title of "Globalizing Asia". At every occasion, members had fruitful discussion on the topic.
Last year, I edited a broacher of papers written by the members, which I submit with this form to JSPS. Owing to the sudden change of publisher's policy, publication of a book is still pursued. Since Hosei University Press shows its interest, probably our book will come out in early 2007.
