Prospectus of Japanese Civilization Institute
Japan has come to form a civilization of its own kind, in the realm of history, religion and culture.
In his book “The Clash of Civilizations,” professor Samuel Huntington places Japanese Civilization in a new position, apart from Chinese Civilization. Our foundation aims to research the following five mutually related categories that are not recognized by the Japanese people to be their identity and personality. Our goal is to study Japanese civilization and pass it down to people in and outside Japan, by actively communicating what we have learnt.
| The field of Ideology, Philosophy and Ethics |
Japanese ideology, "Yamato-gokoro(spirit of early Japan)" and spirit of "wa(harmony)" |
| The field of Economy and Management | "shinise(long-established organizations)" |

Art,handicrafts,fashion,pop culture, architecture and technology |
