Analytical Study on Governmental Ministerial Cooperation in Education Policy Makings.

这项研究历时两年，旨在明确中央政府各部委在教育政策制定方面的关系与合作。得出的结果如下。 除主要负责国家教育政策制定的教育文化部外，负责教育经费筹措的财务省、负责地方学校教育事务的内政部、参与地方生活学习教育的劳动部和总理办公室、以及负责海外打工学生入学事务的外交部，也在制定国家教育政策方面发挥了非常重要的作用。这些部委通过官方或非正式的谈判方式相互合作制定教育政策。而这些行政机构之间的非正式谈判因其政治性而受到特别关注。换句话说，国家教育政策是在中央政府各部委的政治背景下规划和制定的。由此，本研究提出了从层级政治动态的角度研究国家教育政策制定的必要性。

This study that had been conducted for 2 years aimed to clarify the relations and cooperations among Central Governmental Ministries in Education Policy Makings. The results obtained are as follows.In addition to the Ministry of Education and Culture which is mainly responsible to the national education policy makings, Ministry of Finance which is responsible to the financing of education, Ministry of Home Affairs which is engaged in matters of local school education, Ministry of Labor and Prime Minister's Office that take part in local education of life learning, and Ministry of Foreign Affairs that is engaged in matters of admittance of working students (Syugakusei) from abroad, have also playd the very important role in making national education policy. These Ministries have cooperated each other through official or unofficial way of negotiations for making education policy. And special attention was put on unofficial negotiations among these administrative organizations because of its political character. In other words, it is found that national education policies have been planned and formulated in the very political settings of Central Governmental Ministries. Thus this study presents the necessity of making research on national education policy makings from the point of political dynamics of hierarchy.
