Interaction between Theory and Praxis within the Process of Political Transformation among Advanced Democracies

为了这个项目，我访问了美国和德国几次，听取了该领域的大学教授的意见，并收集了一些关于这个主题的资料。除此之外，我还购买了很多这方面的书籍，并举办了一些比较政治学的会议。首先，在比较政治理论领域，我参加了在杜克大学举行的国际比较政治会议，并有机会与美国一些著名学者进行讨论，包括杜克大学的Herbert Kitschelt教授。基于这些经验，我写了一篇名为《比较政治理论的新可能性》的文章。本文试图厘清民主化理论的现状。接下来，我访问了德国和瑞典，考察了民主化理论和援助项目理论的情况，并撰写了一篇题为《走向法律援助项目的比较政治新理论》的文章。其次，在先进民主政治现状领域，我于2002年9月访问德国，对德国联邦议院选举（德语）进行研究。走访了4个主要政党的总部，得到了很多资料。我写了一篇名为《当代德国政治比较导论》的文章。除了这些结果外，我还发表了题为“从民主指标的角度看民主选举的国际标准”的论文，这是2004年10月在乌兹别克斯坦举行的民主选举国际会议的论文。我还在国际比较政治学会议上做了两次英语演讲：“日本和韩国政治的比较”和“否决者和日本政治”。

For this project, I visited the United States and Germany some times to make hearings from university professors in this field, and collect some materials about this theme. In addition to this, I bought many books in this field, and held some conferences on comparative politics.Firstly, within the field of Theory of Comparative Politics, I took part in the International Conference on Comparative Politics held at Duke University, and I had an occasion to discuss with some leading scholars in the United States, including Professor Herbert Kitschelt at Duke University. Based on these experiences, I wrote an article titled "The New Possibility of the Theory of Comparative Politics." I try to make clear the present situation of the theory of Democratization in this article. Next, I visited Germany and Sweden for the investigation of the situation of democratization theory and the theory of assistance project, and I wrote an article titled "Toward the New Theory of Comparative Politics for the Legal Assistance Project."Secondly, within the field of the present political situation of advanced democracies, I visited Germany for making research on German Election for Bundestag (in German) in September 2002. I visited Headquarters of 4 main parties and get many materials. I wrote an article titled "Introduction to the Contemporary German Politics in Comparison."In addition to these results, I published the paper titled "International Standards of Democratic Election from the Viewpoint of the Indicators of Democracy," which is the paper for the International Conference on Democratic Election in Uzbekistan held in October 2004. I made two more presentations in international conferences on comparative politics in English : "Japanese and Korean Politics in Comparison," and "Veto Players and Japanese Politics."
