This study looks at Japanese studies in the United States and
Canada at the beginning of the twenty-first century. It reflects
the life experiences and academic training of the people who
identify themselves as Japan specialists, and the structures that
have been created to house and nurture the study of Japan over the
past six decades. It encompasses both Japan specialists and
Japanese studies insitutions and presents the current situation not
only by looking at new survey data, but also by comparing that
information with what has been collected and analyzed at several
previous points in the relatively short history of the field. The
Japan Foundation is the Japanese government's agency for cultural
diplomacy and international cultural affairs. Established in 1972

became an Independent Administrative Institution in October 2003.
Its mission is to promote international cultural exchange and
mutual understanding between Japan and other countries. It
maintains its headquarters in Tokyo and operates through a network
of 19 overseas offices in 18 countries worldwide.
