    (1)論文「スペンサー「総合哲学の体系」の形而上学的構想」は、スペンサーが、進化概念を原理とする体系化によって、全体として何を目指したのかを明らかにすることを試みた。まず、『第一原理』を通して、スペンサーが体系的な記述を行うにあたって進化という概念を原理とした理由を考察し、『総合哲学の体系』が形而上学的な目的をもっていることを明らかにした。次に、『生物学原理』に依拠しながら、進化とは、生物が環境との相互作用の中で互いに絡み合う関係を形成することを意味することを確認した。そして、『心理学原理』に基づいて、認識が環境との絡み合いを認知する役割を担っていることを確かめた。そのような認識能力を備えた存在が集まるとき、社会や倫理といった新しい秩序が生まれるが、それらは進化を促進する役割を果たすということを明らかにした。これらの議論に基づいて、『総合哲学の体系』は全体として統一的な形而上学的構想を示すことを目的としていたことを明らかにした。 (2)論文「スペンサーにおける科学論と創発の進化論的解釈」は、スペンサーの思想を「進化論的認識論」として解釈することで、その立場から科学哲学における創発に対する批判を検討した。まず、スペンサーの思想を「進化論的認識論」と解釈することができることを確認した。そして次に、この立場に立つことによって、科学とは状況に巻き込まれた科学者集団による試行錯誤を通して形成される、世界と相関的な実在的構造として理解することができるということを明らかにした。その上で最後に、科学を進化論的な仕方で解釈するとき、科学哲学における創発の議論にどのような寄与をなしうるのかを考察し、科学にとって実在は創発的な有り方をしており、かつ、その発見や実証もまた世界の中での創発的な出来事であるということを明らかにした。

    There remains substantial disagreement about the impact of Internet use on trust. Putnam stated the main culprit in demise of American’s social capital were the rise of television and the Internet. Other studies indicate that Internet use may enhance social capital and contribute to higher levels of generalized trust and larger social networks. Yet other studies suggest that Internet use and/or heavy television watching neither increases nor decreases general trust in others. The present study aims to find the impact of media (i.e., television viewing and Internet use) on trust and mistrust by using the Japanese survey data which we have conducted. Results indicate that there are clear differences between trusting and mistrusting persons with regard to media use, and heavy television viewing leads to mistrust in Japan. The present study suggests that communication by the Internet help to establish trusting relationships. The results of previous studies are partially supported.

    Criteria for judging the trustworthiness of others before a first meeting are fame and personal network for the U.S. and Europe (i.e., Germany, Finland, Czech Republic) and Asia (Japan and Taiwan), and high achieved status and the same school or birthplace for Russia and Turkey, both of which partially support previous theories. To determine whether three major urbanized cities (i.e., Shanghai, Seoul, and Tokyo) share common trust structures, commonalities were found among the three cities for the relationships between trust and social characteristics (gender, age, and education), personal networks, and some personality characteristics. Finally, 121 trust researchers from 31 nations gathered in Tokyo in 2017 to participate in an international conference on trust. A special issue of "Comparative Sociology" stemmed from the conference. The principal investigator also edited a book entitled "Trust in Contemporary Society" describing the results of the project.

    Progress of globalization has made it apparent that modern society has the aspect of ‘sacrificial system' , that is driven by ‘Ge-stell'(the total driven system). While cross-linking discussion of death in Anglo-Saxon philosophy and the death philosophy of existentialism, we discuss about Thomas Mann's concept of ‘despair of transcendence', a problem of ‘mourning' in J.Derrida and the expectations of the Heidegger’s apology in Paul Celan. Despite the deepening of the globalization and sacrificial system, by the help of the power of artistic paradox, we can hope that it is still possible to open up the horizon of symbiosis.

    The purpose of this research was to develop teaching-materials to enhance reasoning skills of non-continuous text for integrated studies. We developed a test of logical thinking and teaching-materials for integrated studies. And furthermore, we introduced logic and "Philosophy for Children" to teaching design. Using the materials we designed practical learning at the attached junior high school of Hyogo University of Teacher Education. It was proved some materials were able to practice in elementary schools. The materials were useful to enhance reasoning skills of non-continuous text for integrated studies.

    Based on surveys carried out among eight nations (adding Finland to the United States,Japan, Russia, Germany, the Czech Republic, Turkey, and Taiwan), this study attempted to determine relationships between trust and social values. Among some of the topics of the questions used in this study were one's own lifestyle, concern about social, political, and economic problems, opinions about reciprocity of trust toward others, human nature as fundamentally good or bad, abidingness, right and wrong, marriage, and religious beliefs. Using multiple regression analysis it was found that reciprocity of trust toward others and human nature as fundamentally good have a positive effect on trust. Also, using correspondence analysis, it was found that when comparing two levels of trust (i.e., the lowest and the highest among four levels) many of the social values have distinguishable characteristics to their configurations in Euclidian space among the eight nations for both levels of trust.

    In this research project, we have aimed to work out the method of promoting philosophy education in the primary and secondary education and to construct effective teaching programs, accomplishing the following achievements. (1) We have accumulated basic resources for designing teaching programs of philosophy through surveying the literature on the philosophical dialogue in education. (2) We have worked out several teaching programs by referring to existing practices of the philosophical dialogue in schools and making collaborative researches with overseas researchers and practitioners. (3)We have designed several teaching programs and tried them in different primary and secondary schools in Japan, convincing ourselves of the relevance of the philosophical dialogue in education as well as improving our teaching programs. (4) We have deepened our understanding of the significance and meaning of teaching philosophy in the primary and secondary education.

    The purpose of this research was to introduce logical reasoning in teaching design and evaluation in elementary school based on "Philosophy for Children" program and to enhance reasoning skills and reading literacy. As a result, it clarified that the teaching design based on "Philosophy for Children" program was able to practice in elementary school and the reasoning using Venn diagram was helpful for logical thinking in the discussion about experimental datum.

    In various countries, the necessity of "citizenship education" is maintained and it is really put into practice. In its background lie fluidizations of social systems, interpersonal relationships, and the art of self, which are caused by globalization. According to the analyses by sociologists, psychologists, and pedagogues, "reflexiveness" becomes stronger and stronger in "the late modern". It is necessary for citizens to correspond to the "reflexiveness". The problem of "transition" is however one of the main issues of modern philosophy, and the findings about it can be applied also to "citizenship education". Analyzing current situations and issues of various practices of "citizenship education"' in various places, we reconstructed a conceptual framework and a methodology that "citizenship education" can be based on. On the basis of the above-mentioned considerations, we developed a concrete curriculum of "philosophy for children" as "citizenship education", which can be put into practice in Japanese classrooms.

    We have clarified the possibility to rebuild "an ethic" by understanding Heidegger's speculation of Being from the viewpoint of "the sacred thing". Furthermore, we have clarified the possibility to rebuild "the authority" in the scene of the education that the negative conclusion of the fluctuation of the ethic is clear.

    Trust is an important research theme which forms one of the bases of sociology. Nonetheless, trust has been and continues to be treated primarily as a theoretical issue rather than one with empirical underpinnings. The findings of the present study, based on nationwide surveys among seven nations (the United States, Russia, Japan, Germany, the Czech Republic, Turkey and Taiwan), can be summarized as follows : 1. Speculation about an interpersonal trust scale based on three questions as developed by the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan was validated for five nations, but not for Japan and Taiwan. 2. Parental socialization of trust (or distrust) significantly impacts later adult trust (or distrust) among five nations, but not in Japan or Taiwan. 3. Trust as a norm of reciprocity was not identified as a universal phenomenon among the seven nations. 4. Finally, the bases of trust, at least from a personality perspective, were found to vary among the seven nations, though there were some commonalities.

    19年度は,兵庫県加東市の小学校で低学年児童を対象として絵本の「読み聞かせ」活動を取り入れた日本版の「哲学」授業を実践した。これは,これまでIAPCで開発されたテキストを用いてきたが,低学年児童を対象するには討論の題材が身近であること,さらには,低学年児童の読解力の発達を考慮にいれたことによる.また,これまで「総合的な学習の時間」を活用して「哲学」授業をおこなってきたが,今年度は子どもたちにもっと哲学的討論を身近なものとするため,学校のカリキュラムに縛られることのない放課後の学童保育の時間を活用することも考えてみた.これにより教室という物理的,心理的な条件に縛られることなく子どもたちは自由に哲学的討論を楽しむことができた.さらに,兵庫教育大学附属中学校においても選択科目の時間を活用し日本版の「哲学」カリキュラムを開発して授業実践した。これはイギリスのNEWSWISEを手がかりにニュースを教材としたP4Cの手法を参考としつつ,討論テーマを生徒の身のまわりの出来事から取り上げた実践研究である.この実践ではより哲学的な要素を含んで討論が展開されるようにカリキュラムを設定した.また,17年度に収集した韓国の資料をもとに思考力育成を図るための副読本「お母さんとともに創る日記」を完成させた。これらの基礎データによって日本においても「哲学」授業が可能であり,児童・生徒の思考力の育成につながっていくことを明らかにした。

    An outline of the findings of the study is as follows : During the first year, both in Japan and the United States, sources and resources, including data related to the project theme, were collected. As one result, it was found that in Japan people perceive globalization as passive while in the United States people perceive it merely as the status quo. As a result of a secondary analysis of existing data which was collected during the first year, existing theories, such as those of R.Robertson, A.Smith and N.Luhmann, regarding globalization and national identity were partially supported. For the second year, based on the results of the pretest survey of pairings between parents and their respective high school students, which had been conducted during the previous year, two nation-wide surveys were conducted using the two-stage stratified random sampling and face- to-face personal interview methods. The first survey was conducted among youth between 15 and 17 years of age and their parents (1,400 respondents, 700 pairs) as well as among 2,000 adults over 20 years of age. The second survey was carried out among 2,400 adults over 20 years of age. Parents and their respective children did not differ significantly in their attitudes toward the issues related to globalization and national identity. Also, in comparing the younger and older respondents, the older respondents had more traditional ways of thinking and maintained a relatively high degree of national identity. To the contrary, the younger respondents tended to perceive society and the world more globally and in a more modern approach. Let us classify the two concepts into four combinations, NG, Ng, nG, and ng, where n = a low degree of national identity ; N = a high degree of national identity ; g = a low degree of globalization ; and G = a high degree of globalization. Our findings indicated that the ratio of ng is the highest, followed by Ng, nG, and NG. This indicates that so far as social values are concerned, Japan still exhibits a traditional way of thinking among all age groups ; that it is has not progressed rapidly on general issues which relate to globalization and national identity. However, for some issues, such as foreign language usage, attitudes toward family and sex roles, environmental issues and attitudes toward work and the work ethic, we can see a relatively high degree of globalization. In addition to the surveys which we conducted, to discuss and exchange ideas and obtain information regarding our project from a cross-national perspective, four of our research team members visited experts in the field in Australia, China, and Germany during the first and the second years of the project. The third year was spent reporting on the results of our research.

    当研究では、現象学研究を通して得られた、媒介性に依拠する主体性の概念を基礎に据えて、現代の政治哲学のアポリアを考察し直す。このような主体は自律しておらず、他者との関係に巻き込まれているが、まさにこの巻き込まれ、他者との関係の基礎として機能することになる。 他者からの訴えかけが、主体を構成するのであり、それゆえにそれに責任をもって答えることが自己の存立条件となる。 このような観点から、まず第一に、デリダの脱構築やナンシーの共同体論を位置づけ直すことを試みた。彼らはしばしばポストモダンの思想家として分類されているが、懐疑主義に陥るわけではなく、新たな仕方で倫理の基盤を考察している。 そして第二に、このような媒介性の概念に依拠して、応用倫理学的なテーマへの適用を行い、多文化主義、ボランティア論、ジェンダー論の座標軸の再構成を試みた。具体的には、ローティの自文化中心主義が多文化主義の論点を逸していること、ボランティア活動を近代批判的な活動として再評価すること、ジェンダー論において主体性の役割の再評価が必要であり、その点で社会構築主義的アプローチが重要であることについて考察を試みた。

    An outline of the findings of the study is as follows: 1) The principal investigator selected ten universities and colleges from among the many which have been adopting voluntary education or service-learning programs. These include : Columbia University, New York University, Rutgers University, University of Michigan, University of Washington, Seattle University, Western Washington University, University of California at Berkeley, California State University at Chico, and Stanford University. The principal investigator then interviewed/surveyed the persons in charge of these programs toward determining (a) the present status of the volunteer education programs, (b) if they were experiencing any problems with respect to their voluntary educational curricula, and (c) ways to improve their programs and/or curricula. As a result of these interviews, it was found that in the United States voluntary education (i.e., service-learning) occupies a very important position in university curricula and faculty development programs. 2) Two of the project's collaborators traveled to Germany and France, where, based on a survey plan set up by Professor Scheuch at the University of Koln (also a collaborator on this project), they collected relevant information (literature, reports, documents, and publications) and interviewed/surveyed eight key persons who are in charge of voluntary education programs and/or youth voluntary activity programs at the national government level. As a result of their work, they found that although among college/university students of both nations, interest in voluntary activities is high, concrete management of and information about voluntary activities programs were lacking. 3) Based on pretests carried out last year among 18 colleges and universities in the United States (which is often regarded as the most advanced nation for voluntary activities), surveys among approximately 2,500 students were carried t. Simple statistical analyses (cross tabulations) of the survey results were completed. The survey results indicate that compared with the results of Japanese survey among Japanese students which were carried out in previous year among 16 universities and college among approximately 3,500 students by using almost identical questionnaire, the quency distributions of the many of questions are quite asimilar, but the image toward the voluntary activities among college/university students are quite different by using correspondence analysis. We can see that the survey results (as well as the interviews/surveys and information collection) among the U.S. colleges and universities which have adopted voluntary activities into their regular curricula, will prove quite beneficial in terms of determining means to integrate voluntary activities into regular college/university educational curricula in Japan in the near future.

    Although it would be premature to offer any firm conclusions from our university/college student volunteer activities research project, as data analyses are still underway, we here present several tentative observations based on the analyses completed to date. In early 2000, we surveyed approximately 3,500 undergraduates at 7 national, 1 prefectural, and 8 private universities. Identical 40-item questionnaires on student volunteer activities were self-administered to the sample. Survey questions targeted issues related to volunteer activity content, experiences and attitudes, including satisfaction with and positive and negative images about volunteer activities. In March 2000, about 100 institutions arid agencies which utilize university students as volunteers were asked 35 questions targeting student attitudes toward and evaluations of volunteer work. Additionally, attitudinal surveys were mailed to 10 student volunteers from each of these institutions. Finally, our research team recently interviewed professors teaching volunteer-related courses at 36 universities. To date, our findings and analyses have elicited the following notable observations : 1. There is rather strong interest in volunteer activities among Japanese university students ; however, this does not necessarily lead to actual involvement in volunteering. 2. In general there is a positive image among students about volunteer activities. 3. There is a general belief among students and professors that volunteer activities are based on free choice and should not be included in for-credit curricula. It will be important to lean from the United States, Where volunteer activities are often implemented in the regular curriculum as "service learning." Our project is making every effort to adapt service leaning to facilitate volunteer education in Japanese universities. 4. There are serious discrepancies in attitudes and behaviors between student volunteers and the institutions for which they do volunteer work. 5. Up to now there has been no established means for information exchange among those who teach volunteerrelated courses. Facilitating such communication is imperative. 6. The Japanese government, local governments, or universities and colleges must establish means to disseminate information about volunteer activities. 7. It is important to establish evaluation systems for student volunteer activities. Grading such activities is perceived as awkward in view of the good will element. 8. The production of a handbook is vital for those Who teach volunteer related courses and who coordinate volunteer activities with the institutional recipients.
