Organizational Analysis on the Expansion of Higher Education during Post-WWII in Japan

本项目旨在从组织层面分析二战后日本高等教育的扩张过程。在回顾试图解释教育扩张的社会学和经济学理论，如“技术功能主义”、“人力资本理论”、“冲突理论”和“制度理论”时，所有这些理论都忽视了这样一个事实，即除非学校的能力增加，否则教育扩张是不可能的。因此，教育扩张的研究应该集中在有教育需要和需求时的组织行为。需求和需求学校的组织教育-------*学校的行为-----*扩张因此我们需要知道在什么时候，在什么情况下以及如何每个高等教育机构采取什么行为来回应高等教育的需求和需求。为了实现这一目标，我在第一章中制定了研究框架，在第二章中分析了日本研究生院制度化的进程。为了强调政治、经济和文化环境对组织的重要性，在附录中还增加了对德国模范研究生院的分析。基于这个项目，我们需要进行实证检验。

This project aims to analyze the expansion process of higher education in the period of post-WWII in Japan at the orgnizational level.In reviewing sociological and economic theories trying to explain educational expansion such as "Technical Functionalism", "Human Capital Theory", "Conflict Theory"and "Institutional Theory", it was common to all of these to neglect the fact that educational expansion would be impossible unless the capacity of schools increase. Thus the research in educational expansion should focus upon the organizational behavior when there is the needs and demands for schooling.Needs and Demand Organizational Educational for School-------* Behavior of Schools-----* ExpansionThus we need to know when, under what circumstances and how each higher education institution takes what behavior to respond to needs and demands for higher education.To achieve this goal I formulate the research framework in Chapter 1 and analyze the prpcess of institutionalization of graduate school in Japan in Chapter 2. To emphasize the significance of political, economic and cultural environment on organization, as appendix the analysis on German model graduate school is also added.Based on the this project we need to examine empirically.
