1). The term of "Lifelong Learning Society" is not exist in the UNESCO's and OECD's Lifelong Learning, nor in the University Extention in U,S.A. and Canada. But recently by the term of "Learning Cities" OECD is trying to create new economy and society adapting with Information Technology Revolution.2). UNESCO and European Continental Countries are trying to turn over the traditional Adult Education by the Learning through the life, so that "to democratize" the democratic society. This attempt will support Sustainable and Endogenous Industrial Developments, they think so.3). To create sustainable and democratized societies in the 21st Century, it is necessary self innovation of numbers of people who learn by themselves and change their life-styles. University can recreate themselves by participating with the people's self innovations. This is common idea in Europe and North America.4). In Asia, excepting Australia, New Zealand, and India etc. which were members in the Great Britain Commonwealth, there are much influences of ex-suzerains countries. One of the independent country, Thailand, gained strong cultural influence by Britain, and now, by UNESCO. They have 2 Open Colleges, which are opened to the surrounded countries like Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar, etc.5). In these currents above mentioned, we have to and must change the Japanese stunted style of "University Extension" (=「Kokai Koza」), and of "Lifelong learning" (=「Shogai Gakushu」). The most important Key must be University Participation to the social changes. Without these participations University can not get the admirations from society.

1）。联合国教科文组织和经济合作与发展组织（OECD）的《终身学习》（Lifelong Learning）和美国的《大学扩展计划》（University Extension）中均没有“终身学习社会”一词。和加拿大但近年来，OECD提出了“学习型城市”的概念，试图创造适应信息技术革命的新经济和新社会。联合国教科文组织和欧洲大陆国家正试图通过终身学习来颠覆传统的成人教育，使民主社会“民主化”。他们认为，这种尝试将支持可持续和内生的工业发展。要在21世纪创造可持续发展和民主化的社会，就必须有大量的人进行自我创新，他们通过自己的学习和改变自己的生活方式。大学可以通过参与人的自我创新来再造自己。这是欧洲和北美的普遍想法。在亚洲，除澳大利亚、新西兰、印度等原英联邦成员国外，前宗主国的影响很大。独立国家之一的泰国在英国和联合国教科文组织的影响下获得了强大的文化影响力。他们有两个开放学院，这是开放给周边国家，如柬埔寨，老挝，缅甸等5）。在上述潮流中，我们必须而且必须改变日本人的“大学扩展”（=“Kokai Koza”）和“终身学习”（=“Shogai Gakushu”）的落后风格。大学参与社会变革是社会变革的关键。没有这些参与，大学就不可能得到社会的赞赏。
