Future Developments

The Economic History Department and STICERD have been developing bilateral links with economic historians at the University of Tokyo , and the second of two planned conferences will be held early in 2008. We hope to develop these academic links in the future. We also have strong links with economic historians in other Japanese universities (Osaka, Hitotsubashi) through our Global History Network programme.
We do not expect to change our present trajectory of developing work on Japan within the context of disciplinary teaching departments and the research environment offered by STICERD. Occasional seminars on Japan will continue to take place in STICERD.


Problems

Our courses are popular, and we expect demand to hold up, and possibly increase.
Japanese Institutions on Campus STICERD was originally founded with an endowment from Japan , but operates as an internal research centre for LSE independent of any Japanese institution, although the original donors are regularly informed of STICERD activities.
