Systematic Comparative Study of Public Policies and Policy Processes in Japan and Korea

本研究项目的目的有三个：（1）探讨90年代以来日本和韩国在公共政策和政策过程方面的异同;（2）建立一个通用的和针对具体问题的模型来解释异同;（3）发表研究成果。作为本研究项目的成果，合作者完成了以下政策领域的论文：金融政策、宏观经济政策、货币政策、贸易政策、语言政策、地方政府政策以及外交和安全政策。这些论文有的对日韩两国进行了比较，有的只对一个国家进行了比较。除了对各个政策领域进行研究外，本研究项目的另一个显著成果是对日韩两国政策过程中的社会结构进行了全面的比较分析。在同样的三年期间，依靠其他来源的额外研究资金，我们还在美国、德国、C ...更多信息 中国、俄罗斯和土耳其，分析各种公民社会中群体的基本结构。在政策网络调查中，我们关注的是市民社会中存在的所有团体、工会、俱乐部、协会等，而在政策网络调查中，我们关注的是最重要的政策主体。通过对这些调查的比较分析，我们从基本团体层面了解了各种组织的结构、资源、行为模式、与其他主体的关系、政治化程度等。在与韩国学者为期三年的合作研究（以及之前和之后的研究）中，为了实现上述研究目的，我们进行了实证调查。结果发表在一本近500页的书中。（Tsujinaka、Yutaka和Jaeho Yoem编辑，2004年。《现代韩国的公民社会与利益集团》，《现代韩国的公民社会与利益集团》。东京：Bokutakusha。我们在韩国进行调查并分析结果的同时，也使用相同的框架在中国和俄罗斯进行了类似的调查。（这些调查的资金来自其他来源）。然后，我们将中国和俄罗斯的数据与日本的数据进行比较，并制作了代码书作为参考。少

This research project has three aims : (1)to explore the differences and similarities regarding public policies and policy processes between Japan and Korea since the 1990s ; (2)to create a general and issue-specific models to account for the differences and similarities ; and (3)to publish research results.As a product of this project, collaborators completed papers on the following policy areas : financial policy, macro economic policy, currency policy, trade policy, language policy, local government policy, and foreign and security policy. These papers either compared Japan and Korea, or focused on one country.In addition to examining individual policy area, this research project's another notable achievement lies at conducting a comprehensive comparative analysis of social structure surrounding policy processes in Japan and Korea. During the same three-year period, by relying on additional research funds from other sources, we also conducted surveys in the United States, Germany, C … More hina, Russia, and Turkey to analyze the basic structure of groups in various civil societies. While policy network surveys often focus on the most important policy actors, our survey pays attention to all groups, unions, clubs, and associations that exist in civil society.Through comparative analysis based on these surveys, we came to understand more at the basic group level about various organizations' structure, resources, behavior patterns, relationships with other actors, and the level of politicization. These can serve as an independent variable to explain policy processes and policy outcomes.During the three-year collaborative research (and previous and consequent researches) with Korean scholars, we carried out the empirical survey to achieve the above stated research aims. The results were published in a book that has almost 500 pages. (Tsujinaka, Yutaka, and Jaeho Yoem, eds.2004. Gendai Kankoku no Shimin Shakai, Rieki Dnatai [Civil Society and Interest Groups in Modern Korea]. Tokyo : Bokutakusha.)While we were conducting survey in Korea and analyzing the results, we have also conducted similar surveys in China and Russia by using the same framework. (Funding for these surveys came from other source). We then compared the Chinese and Russian data with the Japanese data, and produced a code book as a reference. Less
