| Kobe University Monograph Series in Social Science Research
The Kobe University Monograph
Series in Social Science Research is an exciting
interdisciplinary collection of monographs, both authored and edited, that encompass scholarly research not only in the
economics but also in law, political science, business and management, accounting,
international relations, and other sub-disciplines
within the social sciences. As a national university with a special strength in
the social sciences, Kobe University actively promotes interdisciplinary
research. This series is not limited only to research emerging from Kobe
University’s faculties of social sciences but also welcomes cross-disciplinary
research that integrates studies in the arts and sciences.
Kobe
University, founded in 1902, is the second oldest national higher education institution
for commerce in Japan and is now a preeminent institution for social science
research and education in the country. Currently, the social sciences section
includes four faculties—Law, Economics, Business Administration, and
International Cooperation Studies—and the Research Institute for Economics
and Business Administration (RIEB). There are some 230-plus researchers who
belong to these faculties and conduct joint research through the Center for
Social Systems Innovation and the Organization for Advanced and Integrated
Research, Kobe University.
This
book series comprises academic works by researchers in the social sciences at
Kobe University as well as their collaborators at affiliated institutions, Kobe
University alumni and their colleagues, and renowned scholars from around the
world who have worked with academic staff at Kobe University. Although
traditionally the research of Japanese scholars has been publicized mainly in
the Japanese language, Kobe University strives to promote publication and
dissemination of works in English in order to further contribute to the global
academic community.
