| Research Abstract |
The relationship of such concepts of Nishida Kitaro as 'Place of Nothingness' and 'Absolute Contradictory Identity' and his involvement in the wartime regime was thoroughly Analysed. This research revealed that his concept of 'Culture' was profoundly influenced by 'nation-state'. I also pointed out in the articles published that his disciples showed same inclination.
It was also pointed out that there are striking similarities between the beginning of the 20th century when the Kyoto School's philosophy was rapidly developed against the Western philosophy and the 21st century when non-Western international relations theories are attracting wide audience of international relations specialists. In doing so, I presented this argument at several international academic conferences.
