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"?
