GCOE Research Group: Policy Research

Current research interests and plans for the GCOE program:

I have conducted research on the welfare state from a political science perspective. As a result of globalization, declining birth rates, and the advent of an aging society, the condition of public and private welfare, which amounts to a reorganization of the public and the private sphere, has become an important issue for the research on the welfare state. I want to examine these questions by conducting comparative research in Asia.
