Inagaki> The method difference is: Inagaki> In U.S. society, people tends to pass the human rights law (design) first Inagaki> and then implement the rights. They believe in law. Inagaki> While, in Japanese society, people tends to try to implement human rights Inagaki> not relying on the law; no one believes in law. I don't see how the japanese society is trying to "implement human rights" without relying on the law. At first, because nothing would become your right if not assured by law and secondly because the japanese society hasn't shown considerable improvements to minorities living here. Almost all improvements here were result from South Korean government's pressures. Inagaki> People does not try to establish the design on paper; Inagaki> but try to have an agreement by many men as a common idea. Inagaki> It is sometimes called the atmosphere or the AIR of the society. Inagaki> It is a too long story and I will discuss the AIR another time. Well, reading it I feel like you saying how marvelous is the way the things work out in Japan. :-) People here will wait for the agreement come "from the up". Then, some people will complain, like in the case of "SHOHIZEI" ($@>CHq@G(J), and after a while everybody will be very tired to complain about it and leave everything as it is. This kind of "agreement" is based that Japan would be a very homogenous society. Think about how it's easier to agree with someone who share the same values you have. Even in western countries, we try to agree about something before put into a law. Probably, the japanese people could see it as a very "aggressive" way of discussion. Think about how would be difficult if the people who do "agreements" don't take in care your values (because they are different)... You should know how much the japanese society is $@41N=2=(J... Inagaki> Any way, Western way of approach sometimes does not solve the problem. May not solve all the problems all the time, but the present japanese way is solving any problem about Human Rights?? I think Japan has potential to show another way to solve it, but how to do it, if this society insists to be closed and provide only solutions valid for "homogenous societies"? -- +----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------+ | Claude Huss | Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.
