- Japan Group

The Japan Research Group emerged from an initiative by a group of professors from the University of Zaragoza who have been linked for years by their interest in all kinds of topics related to social and human sciences in Japan: its role on the international scene, its artistic influences in the Western world, its literature, its legal system and studying it in comparison with other legal systems, its economy, its language, its politics, etc. Aware that there were not too many specialists in this particular branch of knowledge (social and human sciences related to Japan) in Spain and that, fortunately, an important number of them were in Zaragoza, this "hard core" began to collaborate with each other spontaneously through a series of continuous actions and projects that meant the informal and embryonic creation of the group. This interdisciplinary group is currently formed by researchers from different areas and academic institutions and is responsible for the Applied Master's in Japanese Studies. Law, Society and Culture.
