概要

Visual images and videotaped materials are often very useful for a class of 'Introduction of social and cultural background of Japan', but we have few well-edited visual learning materials for this area. So we have welcomed the series of videotaped texts edited by International Student Center, Tokyo Foreign Language University since 1990. My interest has been taken especially to the texts 'Rapid Economic Growth' and ' The Constitution of Japan and Our Daily Life' in this series. 'Rapid Economic Growth' consists of the scenes of important events after World War II picked up from news movies. Some scenes are full of significance not only on economic and political but also sociohistorical ground, which is regretfully not given enough explanation. As a result, this visual text only presents a glance of the history of after-war Japan and sometimes valuable images. Another text, 'The Constitution of Japan and Our Daily Life', on the contrary, lacks historical perspective, which makes this text not so much deserving of discussion at this critical moment as the title suggests.
