Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fukuzawa Yukichi, Niijima Jo and Mori Arinori represent the different positions of prominent educators who were instrumental in introducing Western education to early Meiji Japan. They represent the utilitarian, Christian and government approach to education respectively. The central questions of the dissertation are to discover how the men incorporated Western educational philosophy into Japanese society and, secondly, how they exemplified the freedom to choose internal values as the responsibility of the individual rather than the responsibility of the society or the government. Their thoughts on education are enunciated through the role of the intellectual, social equality and individual freedom. If, as assumed in the study, the focal point of loyalty under the Tokugawa was the political superior, then, the abolition of feudalism necessitated a redefinition of the concept of loyalty in relation to a new focal point. The suggestion is made that Fukuzawa, Niijima and Mori defined loyalty in terms of internal values which they regarded as private or personal values; whereas in the nationalism which later developed in Japan, the definition of internal values became the responsibility of government. In other words, Loyalty for the three men was more of a moral responsibility of independent and free citizens; in nationalism loyalty became a duty of obedient subjects. An overview of 19th century Japanese education is presented in Chapter II and includes the aims and purposes of Tokugawa education, the changes resulting from importation of Western educational philosophies after the restoration and the controversy which led to the inclusion of Confucian morals in the education system (Imperial Rescript on Education, 1890). The educational philosophies of Fukuzawa, Niijima and Mori are reviewed in Chapter III. Special emphasis is directed to their concepts of individual freedom and independence and to the role of the intellectual in the changing social environment. Although there was much dissension among the political, educational and social reformers of the early Mieji period, all claimed to have the welfare of the national uppermost in mind. How the patriotic thought of the three representative Japanese educators influenced education is the subject of Chapter IV. The result of educational and social changes are discussed in Chapter V.

This book was released on 1995-04-01 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars of modern Japan agree that education played a crucial role in that country's rapid modernization during the Meiji period (1868-1912). With few exceptions, however, Western approaches to the subject treat education as an instrument of change controlled by the Meiji political and intellectual elite. Principle, Praxis, and the Politics of Educational Reform in Meiji Japan offers a corrective to this view. By introducing primary source materials (including teaching manuals, educational periodicals, and primary school textbooks) missing from most English-language works, Mark Lincicome examines an early case of resistance to government control that developed within the community of professional educators. He focuses on what began, in 1872, as an attempt by the newly established Ministry of Education to train a corps of professional teachers that could "civilize and enlighten" the masses in compulsory primary schools. Through the Tokyo Normal School and other new teacher training schools sponsored by the government, the ministry began what it thought was a straightforward "technology transfer" of the latest teaching methods and materials from the United States and Europe. Little did the ministry realize that it was planting the seeds of broader reform that would challenge not only its underlying doctrine of education, but its very authority over education. The reform movement centered around efforts to explicate and disseminate the doctrine of kaihatsushugi (developmental education). Hailed as a modern, scientific approach to child education, it rejected rote memorization and passive learning, elements of the so-called method of "pouring in" (chunyu) knowledge practiced during thepreceding Tokugawa period, and sought instead to cultivate the unique, innate abilities of each child. Orthodox ideas of "education", "knowledge", and the process by which children learn were challenged. The position and responsibilities of the teacher were enhanced, consequently providing educators with a claim to professional authority and autonomy - at a time when the Meiji state was attempting to control every facet of the Japanese school system. Principle, Praxis, and the Politics of Educational Reform in Meiji Japan analyzes a key element to understanding Meiji development and modern Japan as a whole.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As one of the most rapid and earliest nations to achieve "Western modernisation", much of Japan’s success stems from its fruitful literacy history during the Tokugawa shogunate as well as later influences from Western educational ideals and consequent economic and democratic conflicts in Japan. This book seeks to enlighten readers on how education and schooling contributed to Japan’s particular process of modernisation and industrialisation. These historical insights can be applied to crises in formal and systemised education today, and form the basis of potential solutions to controversies faced by formal education in Japan and other nation-states. A book that bridges the international information gap in Japan’s history of education will be immensely valuable to historians of both international and Japanese education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The History of Modern Japanese Education is the first account in English of the construction of a national school system in Japan, as outlined in the 1872 document, the Gakusei. Divided into three parts tracing decades of change, the book begins by exploring the feudal background for the Gakusei during the Tokugawa era which produced the initial leaders of modern Japan. Next, Benjamin Duke traces the Ministry of Education's investigations of the 1870s to determine the best western model for Japan, including the decision to adopt American teaching methods. He then goes on to cover the eventual "reverse course" sparked by the Imperial Household protest that the western model overshadowed cherished Japanese traditions. Ultimately, the 1890 Imperial Rescript on Education integrated Confucian teachings of loyalty and filial piety with Imperial ideology, laying the moral basis for a western-style academic curriculum in the nation's schools.

This book was released on 2020-08-06 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women and Public Life in Early Meiji Japan focuses on women’s activities in the new public spaces of Meiji Japan. With chapters on public, private, and missionary schools for girls, their students, and teachers, on social and political groups women created, on female employment, and on women’s participation in print media, this book offers a new perspective on nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Japanese history. Women’s founding of and participation in conflicting discourses over the value of women in Meiji public life demonstrate that during this period active and vocal women were everywhere, that they did not meekly submit to the dictates of the government and intellectuals over what women could or should do, and that they were fully integrated in the production of Meiji culture. Mara Patessio shows that the study of women is fundamental not only in order to understand fully the transformations of the Meiji period, but also to understand how later generations of women could successfully move the battle forward. Women and Public Life in Early Meiji Japan is essential reading for all students and teachers of 19th- and early 20th-century Japanese history and is of interest to scholars of women’s history more generally.

Download or read book Japanese Political History Since the Meiji Restoration, 1868-2000 written by R. Sims and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-12 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Japanese Political History Since the Meiji Restoration, 1868-2000 explores, through a combination of narrative and analysis, the changes in the political process which lay behind Japan's transformation into a modern nation state; its successive turn toward militarism, fascism, and the Pacific War; and the imposition of a fully democratic constitution. Sims examines closely such central topics as the Meiji renovation, samurai modernisers, the rise of liberal political parties, the Meiji constitution, 'Taisho democracy', the wartime changes in the political system, postwar reforms and the 'reverse course', four decades of Liberal Democratic rule, and the shake-up of Japanese politics during the 1990s. No other book has covered Japanese political history over the entire period since 1868 in such detail, and the present volume aims to fill the gap between the various general histories of modern Japan and the ever-increasing monographic literature.
