2001年9月11日、ニューヨーク、ワールド・トレードセンターに対するテロ攻撃に端を発したアフガン、イラク戦争は〈非対称の戦争〉と呼ばれる。そして、その〈非対称の戦争〉、即ち国家の枠組みを超えたテロ活動に対しての伝統的な国家による〈戦争〉は、あきらかにその限界を露呈している。暴力連鎖の世界状況の中で20世紀型〈国家〉も、その国家による〈戦争〉も根源的な思想的挑戦を受けている。これは、とりもなおさず、その20世紀型国家が依拠する政治思想もまた挑戦を受けているということである。 政治と政治思想のブレーク・スルーが待ち望まれる中で、ガンジーの平和思想と憲法第9条の持つ政治思想的意味を考えるひとつとの営みとして本稿は書かれている。 本稿ではまず筆者の問題意識について述べ、続いて元津田塾大学教授ダグラス・ラミス氏の手になる『ガンジーの危険な平和憲法案』について検討する。さらに20世紀型国家、すなわち「普通の国家」とはなにかについてのひとつの典型的な議論を紹介し、現下の世界情勢と「普通の国家」との相克について論じる。

Japan is no longer viewed abroad as a rising sun. She is increasingly perceived as a risen sun. This is evident from the extensive coverage of the country in the foreign mass media and from the number of scholary publications devoted to the study of Japan. In recent years, much foreign literature on Japan has fbcused on the alleged collective nature of Japanese society (Japan Incorporated) and on the growing economic friction between Japan and several of its major trading partners. In this context, the way in which Japan is portrayed has considerable economic and political importance. The major purpose of this paper is to examine the ideological assumptions hidden in some major fbreign works on Japan and to consider alternative and, possibly, more valid ways of looking at Japanese society. The paper is devided into fbur parts. The first part discusses the recent research into Japanese Studies undertaken by such scholars as YSugimoto, M.Ikeda, and C.D.Lummis. Here, I indicate my general agreement with the views (strongly held by these scholars) that the emphasis on Japan's uniqueness, hitherto characteristic of most Japanese and fbreign research, needs to the thoroughly reexamined. In this connection, however, the recent appearance of a small body of literature which rej ects the unconscious re-production and reconfitmation of the unique and exotic streotypes should be noted. Part two reviews the arguments presented by C.D.Lummis in his New Look at the Chrysanthemum and the Sword. The Chrysantemum and the Sword is still regarded by many as an unchallenged classic among both writers and the students of Japanese studies. Following his argument, I attempt to lay bare the ideological assumptions of Ruth Benedict's famous work. These assumptions continue to form the basis for the perceptions of Japan as a unique, collective and, to enlightened Americans and even to some Japanese, ultimately unacceptable culture. Part three discusses possible new approaches to the description and analysis of Japanese society. Here I argue that to simply place Japan within the universalistic framework of global socio-anthoropological studies, will not in itself solve all our problems. This is in no way to deny the important contributions made by the students of the literature on Japanese society. Methodologies, however, tend to be value laden and it is by no means clear that the cognitive frameworks of the modern western social sciences can be applied with equal effectiveness to the study of all peoples at all times and in all places. Rather, the task of the serious social scientists is to understand the inherent characteristics of these complex societies using cognitive frameworks that can be derived from within. In this context, I find the political scientist J.Kamishima's dynamic approach to the study of Japanese society highly suggestive, although Ido not discuss in this paper his key concepts such as hard rule and soft rule, familiarization process and strangerization, status democracy and opinion democracy, first village and second Village. Finally, reflecting on my own personal experience of international society, particulary at the U.N., I stress the urgent importance first, of reconstructing the frameworks for the analysis of Japanese society, and second, of portraying Japan to non-Japanese audiences in such a way as to avoid possible psychological isolationism on the part of the Japanese people themselves.
