PREFACE
The Japan Foundation, since its establishment in 1972, has been supporting Japanesestudies all over the world, and has implemented surveys on the state of Japanese studies inmain countries. In cooperation with the Association for Asian Studies, the Japanese Studies
Association of Canada, and later the University of Hawaii, surveys were conducted for North
America in 1989, 1995 and 2005. The results were published as multi-volume sets; Directoryof Japanese Studies in the United States and Canada, which was published in three editions,Japanese Studies in the United States: the 1990s, Japanese Studies in Canada: the 1990s, andJapanese Studies in the United States and Canada: Continuities and Opportunities. In 2010,
the Japan Foundation once again initiated a survey on the state of Japanese studies in the
United States and Canada which would succeed the above surveys. With cooperation fromthe University of Hawaii again, the survey is now complete. Unlike the previous volumes, thesurvey results, data, and information are only available online. You may find them at http://
japandirectory.socialsciences.hawaii.edu/.
Since the publication of the last survey, domestic and international circumstances inJapan have dramatically changed. In March 2011, northeastern Japan was devastated by themassive earthquake and tsunami disaster, while the financial crisis continues to put stresson the world’s economy. These changes should also have no little impact on scholars andinstitutions of Japanese studies. Therefore, we believe that this new survey, in the midst ofsuch change in Japan as well as the world will provide not only a picture of the current stateof Japanese studies but also as a marker or landmark for the future of Japanese studies. It is
our hope that it will be useful in promoting collaborative efforts and networking among those
who are engaged in activities related in Japan, not only in North America, but the rest of theworld.
We wish to extend our deepest gratitude to Professor Patricia G. Steinhoff of the University of Hawaii, whose devotion and diligence directed the entirety of this project. Our sincere
thanks also go to Professor Julian Dierkes of the University of British Columbia for his constant cooperation and dedication to the project. We finally wish to acknowledge the University of Hawaii for undertaking the planning, data-gathering, and compilation of this project.

INTRODUCTION
While the number of institutions and specialists on Japan in Canada is much smaller
than in the United States, the present effort builds on four previous surveys in an important
way to provide a snapshot of Japan studies in Canada.
The collection of this data largely follows the methodology of the data presented in the
United States volume in that it relied on a combination of previously collected data, collaboration with established organizations that group specialists on Japan, as well as some additional
detective work to locate additional program and specialists.
The two central professional associations for Japan specialists in Canada are the U.S.based Association for Asian Studies and the Japan Studies Association of Canada (JSAC).
While the Canadian Asian Studies Association (CASA) also includes an East Asian Council
for CASA members who focus on Japan among other countries in East Asia, JSAC’s establishment in the late 1980s has made this the dominant professional association for Japan
specialists in Canada.
JSAC’s leadership under current president Ken Coates (University of Saskatchewan)
actively cooperated with the data collection efforts for this volume. Invitations to participate
were distributed widely to JSAC members.
A second crucial institution of Japan studies that is focused exclusively on Canada is
the Japan Foundation’s office in Toronto under the leadership of Mr. Masayuki Suzuki until
2011 and the leadership of Mr. Takashi Ishida since then. The offices of the Japan Foundation
supported data collection through a comparison of their mailing lists with lists of Canadianparticipants to flag any institutions that might have been missed.
Finally, the relatively smaller numbers of individuals and institutions in Canada made it
possible for the editor to search for Japan-related pages on the webpages of Canadian institutions of higher education to ensure that as few institutions with Japan programs or specialists
would be missed as possible.
Of course, these efforts cannot be entirely comprehensive and the editor apologizes toany individuals or institutions that may have been missed.
In addition to the institutions mentioned above, the greatest debt of gratitude that is
owed for the existence of the Canada data is to Pat Steinhoff and her team at the University of
Hawai‘i. Without their tireless efforts, this entire project and thus the existence of extensive
information on Japan libraries, specialists and programs in Canada would not have been possible.
François Lachapelle, a graduate student in Sociology at the University of British Columbia, was instrumental in making the data analysis of the Canadian information possible.

The Big Picture for Japanese Studies in Canada
The most noticeable feature of research on Japan in Canada is its overall stable presence
and relative concentration at a few institutions. As in most population figures, the difference
between the U.S. and Canada is one order of magnitude. This is reflected in the overall numbers associated with research on Japan.
While the field is significantly smaller over all in Canada, some of its central academic
institutions are on par with U.S. institutions leading to a much greater concentration of libraryand human resources.
The University of British Columbia thus hosts by far the largest number of Japan specialists. This institution thus accounts for roughly 20 percent of the specialists throughout thecountry and is twice as large as even the next-largest institution. Such a concentration is, ofcourse, unimaginable in the context of a generally larger field in the U.S. or elsewhere. Not
coincidentally, even in a Canadian context, the two largest centres of Japan specialists arealso among the three largest Canadian universities by enrolment numbers in general. They
are located in the largest and third-largest metropolitan regions and are also among the internationally most visible universities.
Their library holdings are the most extensive within Canada and a comparison of theseholdings to U.S. universities places them among the most visible centres of research on Japan
for North America.
The present survey indicates that these centres of concentration of research on Japan arestable in the resources that are dedicated to this research.
While research on Japan thus initially appears concentrated in a small number of centres
in Canada, the field is also represented all across the country. Japan specialists’ presence atroughly a third of all universities nationwide suggests that the field continues to be well-represented as an academic specialization in Canada. The total number of specialists responding
to the survey remains virtually unchanged from 2006 (156 now versus 159 in the last round).
This stability in the overall number of specialists is important to note in light of the noticeable
drop that the last version of this survey (2006) reported in comparing numbers to the previous
rounds (321 specialists in 1988 and 300 specialists in 1995). One obvious interpretation of thisover time trend would be to speculate that massive interest during Japan’s ascendancy inflated
the number of Japan specialists which is now returning to a more sustainable level. Over time
this suggests a bell-shaped development with a peak coming at some point between the late1980s and mid-1990s.

Libraries Facilitating Japanese Studies
Despite advances in information technology and the migration to on-line media assources for scholars as well as the general public, studying Japanese and doing research on
Japan still fundamentally involves the use of a library. The continued support for librarycollections on Japan is thus a vital indicator of the prospect for the field of Japanese Studies.
Unlike the lack of an institutionalization of specific funding support for area studies generally
and research on Japan in particular in Canada, libraries continue to structure their organization around languages as one way of categorizing holdings. It is therefore not surprising thatlibrary holdings at the largest research libraries have a distinct and specific existence.
When examining the holdings of libraries of materials on Japan (including those in
1

Canadian volume.indb 1

4/13/2013 3:00:00 PM

Japanese), it should immediately be noted that these holdings are highly concentrated within
Canada. The two research libraries with the most significant holdings (University of Toronto
and University of British Columbia) thus not only dwarf the holdings at other Canadian libraries but are on par with some of the most respected libraries in the US.
The University of Toronto’s holdings of 182,347 volumes and UBC’s holdings of 153,233
volumes make these libraries the 11th and 12th largest in North America, respectively. The
combined holdings of the other eight libraries reporting their holdings in the survey only
add up to just over 100,000 volumes with the most significant holdings at the University ofAlberta (39,400), the University of Montreal (25,083), and the University of Calgary (14,203).
Noticeably, the number of volumes reported by the University of Toronto and UBC includes
only Japanese-language materials as these are separated within the library’s organization
while the other libraries reported a mix of Japanese and other language materials.
Compared to the 2006 figures, the holdings at the largest universities have continued to
grow. At the University of Toronto this number has increased by over 20,000 volumes and by
a comparable number of nearly 16,000 at UBC. Reflecting the overall investment into higher
education in the province of Alberta, its two largest institutions now include more than 10,000
volumes each, with the University of Alberta adding 30,000 volumes and the University ofCalgary also registering significant holdings.

Japan Specialists and Japan Programs in Canada
A total of 156 specialists continue to sustain an in-depth link between Canada andJapan in research, teaching, and other professional fields. Of these, 147 specialists are affiliated with any of 41 higher education institutions and 16 are the sole Japan specialist at their
institution.
Geographic and Institutional Distribution of Specialists
Roughly a third of specialists report Ontario and British Columbia, respectively, as theirresidence. A further ten percent each hail from Quebec or Alberta with the remaining nine
provinces adding another 14 specialists.
As the vast majority of the Canadian population lives in urban areas, we might also lookat the concentration of Japan specialists in particular metropolitan regions. If we consider
Toronto as the most populous city in Canada and consider the greater metropolitan region to
include such communities as Hamilton and Waterloo, then this area is home to 52 specialists.
Fourteen specialists reside in Montreal, 44 in Vancouver, two in Calgary, and seven specialists live in Ottawa. Two thirds of Canada’s Japan specialists thus work in the five largest
metropolitan regions.
Among the institutions that boast a concentration of specialists, the University of British
Columbia is home to 30 specialists, followed by the University of Toronto with 16 specialists.
Roughly a third of all specialists are thus affiliated with only two institutions representing asignificantly higher concentration of specialists by institutions than is observed in the UnitedStates.
The Demography of Japan Specialists
Of 147 specialists who reported their gender, 41 (28%) are women. The strongest cohortof specialists by age decade is in their 50s (36 of 147) followed by specialists in their 60s (31),2Canadian volume.indb 2

4/13/2013 3:00:00 PM

and 40s (22). Only nine specialists are under 40 and 18 are over 70 years old. The averageage of specialists at the time of the survey (2011) was 57 years. This demographic distribution
supports the notion of a bell-shaped over time development of the number of specialists inthe field, while the previous survey described the community of Japan specialists as “graying
rapidly” (p. 198). Then, only one participating specialist was under 40, now there are ninespecialists in that cohort suggesting that some rejuvenation is taking place and thus that thefield may be somewhat stable in its size.
A third of the specialists report Canada as their place of birth (39 of 115) followed by
25 percent (29) who were born in the U.S., and a further 14 percent (16) born in Japan. Of theinstitutions with the greatest concentration of specialists, UBC has a higher number of U.S.born specialists (11 out of 30) and the University of Toronto has a lower-than-average numberof Japan-born specialists (1 of 16).
Roughly half of the specialists are active in humanities fields. The greatest concentration of specialists in a single discipline is in History. Thirteen percent of the 142 respondents
who reported a primary discipline reported history as their affiliation. Other disciplines withat least five percent of the total number of specialists are literature, geography, anthropology,
business, political science, religion, and sociology.
Around 80 percent of specialists work on historical Japan while a fifth report working
primarily on contemporary Japan.
Forty-one percent of specialists report that they work on Japan generally as a geographic
area of focus. Among the more specific areas of focus, the Kinki region was named mostfrequently (21 times) followed by the Kanto region (19) times. Among specialists who also
reported non-Japanese areas of focus for their research China, Canada, and the U.S. wereidentified most frequently.
Japanese Language Ability among Specialists
One hundred seven of the specialists specified their language abilities. In the survey,
they had been asked to categorize themselves into six categories from 0 (“no usable proficiency”) to 5 (“native fluency”) for the separate categories of listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Not surprisingly, the category shares are clustered somewhat for listening,speaking, and reading, while the number of respondents reporting writing proficiency ismuch lower.
For listening proficiency, respondents sorted themselves across the six categories withthe following shares: 16 percent (no usable proficiency), twelve percent (adequate for dailyneeds), eleven percent (meets limited scholarly needs), 16 percent (handle scholarly needs
adequately), 25 percent (handle scholarly needs with ease) and no fewer than 19 percent
reporting native fluency in listening. The corresponding shares for speaking are 13 percent,21 percent, ten percent, 19 percent, 19 percent and 19 percent and for reading 19 percent, 5
percent, ten percent, 16 percent, 32 percent, and 18 percent. Finally, writing proficiency is
distributed across categories at 27 percent, 15 percent, 14 percent, 15 percent, 15 percent,and twelve percent. If we group categories 4-6 together to identify at least an adequate ability to handle scholarly needs in Japanese, we obtain 60 percent for listening, 57 percent for
speaking, 66 percent for reading, and 42 percent of the respondents. These high numbers
across categories and the roughly one third of respondents who report their proficiency as“Handle scholarly needs with ease” clearly indicates continuing preparation for engagement with Japanese language materials as is also reflected in the number of specialists who
3

emphasize the importance of language ability. Over 80 percent of respondents identified thenecessity of understanding, speaking and reading Japanese for research purposes. Just under
half highlighted the ability to read classical Japanese and two thirds see writing in Japanese
as necessary.
On-Going Research on and in Japan
Seventy-one percent of respondents declared that they are currently undertaking research on Japan. Research activities are divided evenly between individual and collaborative
activities.
While collaborations are clearly increasingly facilitated by communication technologies
that do not require co-location, research on a specific geographic area like Japan continues
to require some travel for data collection purposes and to engage with Japanese colleagues.
When asked how often they had visited Japan in the past ten years, only ten of the 109
respondents to this question had not been to Japan for research purposes while 31 percent had
been to Japan five times or more. Engagement with Japanese colleagues is equally active as 16
percent had attended conferences in Japan five or more times. Two thirds of the respondents
had also visited Japan for pleasure or for personal reasons.
When asked about sources of funding for their most recent trip, personal funds (28 percent) and institutional general funds (26 percent) were identified most often, with government
funding also accounting for a significant share of the responses (18 percent Canadian government, nine percent Japanese government). Only two of the 130 respondents to this question
identified North American foundation support as the source of their funding.
The active travel routines undertaken by specialists are also reflected in their network
ties. All respondents identified some number of Japan specialists that were known to themin Japan, while only three noted that no Canadian or U.S.-based specialists were personallyknown to them. At the other extreme, over 30 percent of respondents noted that they knew
more than 25 Japan specialists personally in North America and over 20 percent reported
knowing an equally large number in Japan.
As a result of their research, Japan specialists reported publishing an astonishing 176
books and nearly 500 scholarly research articles.
Teaching about Japan
Sixty of the specialists responded to a question regarding the amount of teaching they
do that is focused on Japan. Thirty-three of the respondents indicated that they focused onJapan in their teaching about as much as they would like to. Somewhat more disconcerting, 26 of the 60 replied that they taught less on Japan that they would like to. When this
response was followed up with a query for the reasons that they were teaching less on Japan,
no clear pattern emerged with over ten percent of the correspondents selected the following
categories, respectively: lack of resources, insufficient student interest, insufficient interest
among administration, insufficient interest among faculty colleagues, and other demands ontheir time.
The relatively frequent mention of insufficient interest among students, administratorsand colleagues (adding up to 44 percent) may suggest a shifting attitude to a concentration
on Japan for research and teaching. Asked about the attitude toward Japan specialists in theirdiscipline, a third of respondents characterized this as “indifferent”, while just over half selected “mildy favorable” or “very positive”.

Conclusions
The results of the present survey suggest a relatively stable community of Japan specialists. Specialists who are included in the directory are overwhelmingly academic specialists.
While some indicators such as specialists’ satisfaction with interest in Japan aroundthem may suggest a defensive attitude, the demography of the field suggests that some rejuvenation is taking place and long-term viability thus seems assured.
The overwhelming characteristic of the field is still its heavy concentration in a small
number of institutions and geographic centres. While some organization have an explicitly
national mandate (Japan Foundation, Toronto and Japan Studies Association of Canada),
there may well be room for an expansion of activities that bridge some of the concentrations.
A promising effort in this regard may be the Japan Futures Initiative housed at the Universityof Waterloo which has cross-institutional ambitions, but is limited to policy-relevant social
scientific study of Japan.
