Kato, Morimichi – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2022
Today, teaching literature has an established place within the school and university curricula in Western and East Asian countries. This seems so natural that we take the educational role of literature for granted. However, history teaches us that elevating literature to an academic subject required a defense of literature against the critical…

Mashino, Takeru – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2022
Service learning (SL) in higher education has been developed in various forms, mainly in the US, with an emphasis on linking services and learning, universities and communities. Many people view higher education as a means to a career which, in turn, renders education a subject of private interest. Owing to this, SL is expected to encourage civic…

Kirloskar-Steinbach, Monika – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2022
After the Second World War, philosophers from former colonies began to work on a hermeneutic better suited to the postcolonial context, as the frameworks adopted in conventional academic philosophy were considered to be inadequate in this regard. This position had already been taken during the colonial period by thinkers like Rabindranath Tagore.…

Kitayama, Yuka; Hashizaki, Yoriko; Osler, Audrey – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2022
Both education for democratic citizenship and human rights education tend to emphasise political and legal learning.

Ishii, Terumasa – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2022
As arguments for the liberalization of education grow more heated, how are we to approach Japanese schools as a community?

Tokunaga, Tomoko – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2021
Part-time high schools function as an important safety net for marginalized students, including immigrants, who are often excluded from society and mainstream education.

As public education faces multiple issues, including the surfacing of children's struggles in society and the formation of capabilities suited to the times, free schools are tasked with expectations for their role as a supplement to public education, leading to a change in the onetime structure of opposition. However, attention must be paid to the…

This paper aims to examine the academic significance of the concept of "ibasho" (a place or community one feels at home), which emerged from the problem of truancy in Japanese society in the 1980s. Free schools were created as "places ibasho" for truant children. In the field of youth work, group-work-based youth organizations…
