{"title":"EXTENSION AND OBFUSCATION: TWO CONTRASTING ATTITUDES TO THE MORAL BOUNDARY","authors":"M. Kumasaka","doi":"10.15057/25390","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15057/25390","url":null,"abstract":"At the dawn of environmental philosophy, Asian thought, especially Japanese thought, was expected to be a plentiful source of inspiration to improve the relationship between human beings and nature. However, the influence of Asian thought upon environmental philosophy seems to be very limited, or remains superficial. Concepts and theories in this field are almost all Western, while genuine Asian concepts and theories hardly appear outside studies about particular Asian cases. This paper compares the modern, Western, environmental mind and the natural thought found in Japanese culture. Through this comparison, we see the characteristics of both more clearly, in terms of advantages and limitations. To this end, this paper, firstly, analyzes the concept of anthropocentrism, secondly, shows how Western environmentalism attempts to overcome anthropocentrism, and thirdly, considers anthropocentrism and nonanthropocentrism in Japanese culture. I. Three Types of Anthropocentrism Criticism and defense of anthropocentrism frequently appear in studies of environmental philosophy. Some researchers have become wearied by repeated disputes about anthropocentrism and turned their attention to more practical fields. Environmental pragmatists in particular “resist the dominant trend to homogenize environmental philosophy” and “cannot tolerate theoretical delays to the contribution that philosophy may make to environmental questions.” Indeed, it is unclear how philosophic researchers can contribute toward the solution of environmental issues. This paper does not aim for the homogenization of environmental philosophy, either. However, for the further development of comparative environmental philosophy, analyzing the concept of anthropocentrism more precisely has great significance. This task might not contribute toward policy making directly, but it could better clarify our view on our relationships with nature. 1.

In the epochmaking essay “The Historical Roots of Our Ecologic Crisis,” Lynn White Jr. stated that this kind of anthropocentrism in Christianity is the underlying cause of the modern environmental crisis. Non-anthropocentrism regards the world as made not only for human beings but also for other beings, or existing for no reason. Anthropocentrism might be regarded as a religious anthropocentrism. 2.

Honneth adopts as a method for the theory of justice in his Das Recht der Freiheit (2011) follows on from his interpretation of Hegelʼs Philosophy of Right in his earlier book Das Leiden an Unbestimmtheit (2001). In this paper, it is argued that Honnethʼs theoretical development here is the necessary result of his theory of recognition, but that it also implies some theoretical problems. These are as follows: (1) the circularity problem; (2) the gerrymandering problem; and (3) the implicit shift of the grounds of normativity. The last problem in particular implies an important theoretical turn from his formal position that could upset his program of the revision of Critical Theory through the theory of recognition.","PeriodicalId":335834,"journal":{"name":"Hitotsubashi journal of social studies","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127343914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, until 2003 it was known as the Japan Amateur Sports Association (JASA). Adhering to its own amateur code of conduct, the JASA exerted ideological control over its member associations and athletes. 1 Therefore, in order to clarify what amateurism is in Japan, one needs to carefully trace the history of the JASA amateur code. The post-war JASA amateur code was first drawn up in 1947, and was revised in 1957 when it became more stringent. 2 It was not until after 1970 that the code began to become more relaxed. In 1971, professional coaches were admitted, and the restrictions that had prohibited member clubs from playing against their professional counterparts were removed. 3","PeriodicalId":335834,"journal":{"name":"Hitotsubashi journal of social studies","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125096519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based onformer party a ffiliations, the DPJ is divided into eight factions, each headed by party heavyweights. Since no overall study has yet been done on the DPJ and its internal structure, we still have to ask whether the factions are motivated by ideological concerns or primarily driven by material concerns. The answer to this question has significant effects onthe interpretation of the function of the factions as either integrative or divisive. By using surveys on policy positions of party members that were jointly conducted by the University of Tokyo and the newspaper Asahi shinbun, I asked for the policy diversificationwithinthe party an d the factions. I found evidence that the policy diversificationwithinthe DPJ is wider thanwithin other parties and that the factions are not mainly based on different policy positions. Therefore we have to reject the assertionthat faction alism withinthe DPJ is primarily about policies. We also have to reject the assumption that the factions may act as an integrative mechanism within the party. We rather suggest that they are based on material (self-)interests. In the same manner as the LDP factions, the factions of the DPJ may become \"parties within the party\", posing a major threat to the unity of the party if factionalism within the DPJ is intensifying.","PeriodicalId":335834,"journal":{"name":"Hitotsubashi journal of social studies","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133091465","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
