The rationale behind choosing “interaction”(交涉, Chin.: Jiaoshe; Jap.: kōsyō) over “communication” (交流, Chin.: Jiaoliu; Jap.: kōryū) when phrasing the concept is the research focus the team has positioned: cross-border, interaction, and reciprocal views between the periphery and the center. In June 2007, the program of the Institute for Cultural Interaction Studies (ICIS), jointly applied by the scholars of history, ideological history, and East-West language contact research at Kansai University, was approved by theMinistry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan. In October of the same year in his keynote speech at the preparatory conference of Society for Cultural Interaction in East Asia, Professor Yu Ying-shih (1930–2021) presented a sophisticated discussion on the theories of civilization by Arnold Joseph Toynbee (1889–1975) and Samuel Huntington (1927–2008). He pointed out the significant contribution that the promotion of cultural interaction studies and the establishment of such an international institute have brought to the development of relevant research domains. In June 2009, the Society for Cultural Interaction in East Asia (SCIEA) was formally established in Osaka, Japan. The tenets of the Society are: to keep finger on the pulse of the dynamic cultural formation, interaction, conflict, transition, and integration in East Asia; to provide multi-dimensional insights into cultural interactions, i.e., formations of mutual interferences, drawing upon a myriad of methodologies of the humanities; and to promote the academic exchanges among scholars in East Asian countries. With respect to academic research, the team scholars advocate global perspectives and creativity in research activities.

He played a crucial role in the emergence of modern business in Japan during the late nineteenth – early twentieth centuries, and his contribution will be formally acknowledged by his image on Japan’s new ¥10,000 bank note, due out in 2024. He was associated with the establishment and management of hundreds of new businesses as Japan introduced Western forms of corporate organisation and transformed many aspects of its economy before the First World War. But Shibusawa was not just a businessman. In later life he also devoted a great deal of thought to the issues of business practice, the nature of capitalism, and business ethics, seeking to inculcate in Japan’s business community a set of values that were in accordance with the ethics of Confucius. Indeed, he articulated a new form of ‘ethical’ capitalism that he believed would allow the community as a whole to benefit from the development of capitalist enterprises. As the title of this book indicates, it is this aspect of Shibusawa’s career that is the main focus of the John Sagers’ book. The literature on the business career and values of Shibusawa Eiichi has expanded considerably over the last two decades, and John Sagers has taken","PeriodicalId":439452,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cultural Interaction in East Asia","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123299794","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}

The history of religious conflicts between Christianity, Confucianism, Buddhism, Islam and Shintoism in early modern and modern East Asia has been a central area of interest in Prof. Tao’s work.
