Examining the hindrances and possibilities (Sachiko Morimoto) -- 6 Archives as Record and Memory Keepers of War (Keiko Tamura) -- 7 Standardizing Non-Alphabetical Archival Description (Takahiro Sakaguchi) -- Editor?s Note. 330 $aThis book is the first attempt to introduce the current status of archival practices in Japan as well as the basic views of the populace on making records accessible to English readers. In general, Japan has not paid sufficient attention to keeping and utilizing records except in the field of historical research. This book thus examines Japanese attitudes about history, records management, information acts, the status of archivists of the constitution, and genealogical research practices and a description of archives. Consequently, such investigations clarify how both private and public archives function or fail to do so in those spheres of Japanese society. In addition, this book presents the efforts in wartime record keeping in Australia, which is significantly different from how the Japanese deal with such records. This book therefore provides a clear and concrete picture of the status of current archival practices in Japan and the thinking that underlies them. On the basis of suchexaminations, this book enables readers to understand to what extent and how the past affects the present through archives, to recognize the importance of archives, and to respect the past in order to maintain and develop perspectives in people?s lives. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Political Science,$x2191-5474 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy 606 $aConstitutional law 606 $aSocial policy 606 $aCollective memory 606 $aManagement 606 $aPolitical Science 606 $aSocial Theory 606 $aConstitutional Law 606 $aSocial Policy 606 $aMemory Studies 606 $aManagement 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aConstitutional law. 615 0$aSocial policy. 615 0$aCollective memory. 615 0$aManagement. 615 14$aPolitical Science. 615 24$aSocial Theory. 615 24$aConstitutional Law. 615 24$aSocial Policy. 615 24$aMemory Studies. 615 24$aManagement. 676 $a027.0952 702 $aFujiyoshi$b Keiji 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484521803321 996 $aArchives, accountability, and democracy in the digital age$91896425 997 $aUNINA
