Enacting Moral Education in Japan: Between State Policy and School Practice: Routledge Series on Schools and Schooling in Asia
Autor Sam Bamkinen Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 dec 2023
The study follows the 2015 moral education reform from its genesis in central government, through the Ministry of Education to its enactment by local government and schools. The book looks beyond written policies, curricula and textbooks to examine how teachers, school administrators and others make sense of, and translate, policy into practice in the Japanese classroom context. Chapters explore how moral education practice has changed in response to the intentions of national policy, and analyzes the implications for understanding processes of policy enactment in the Japanese education system.
This book presents a new perspective on the complexity of education policy making, practice, and the gaps in between. It will be of interest to postgraduate students, researchers, and academics in the fields of education policy and politics, moral education, school administration, and international and comparative education more broadly, particularly in Asia.

Recenzii
"Moral education in Japan attracts feverish attention across the political spectrum. Sam Bamkin's outstandingly researched book sheds much-needed light on its realities, from policy to classroom practice."
- Peter Cave, Senior Lecturer in Japanese Studies, University of Manchester.
"Sam Bamkin’s historically-informed ethnography gives the lie to some of the recent rather over-excited commentary about the introduction of a new – often described as ‘nationalistic’ - moral education curriculum in Japan. By skilfully delineating the multiple levels involved in implementing the new curriculum – from the Prime Minister to the classroom teacher – and demonstrating the multiple positions taken by actors within each level, he has begun to develop a new ‘theory of enactment’ which provides a very useful model for other areas of policymaking not just in Japan but elsewhere."
- Roger Goodman, Nissan Professor of Japanese Studies, University of Oxford.
"With a lengthy history of controversy within Japanese education, moral education was elevated to the status of a 'special subject' in March 2015. The author delves into not just the policymaking behind this change, but also its enactment at the local and school levels. The investigation reveals a multitude of noteworthy discoveries, foremost among them being the pivotal roles played by 'expert practitioners' owing to their well-versed understanding of the domain. Undoubtedly, this book stands as a commendable contribution to research on education policy and the study of moral education in the Japanese context."
- Masaaki Katsuno, Dean of the Graduate School of Education, The University of Tokyo, Japan.
"This book aims to reframe the educational reform concerning moral education in Japan. Instead of viewing it as a one-way execution of policies from the central government to schools, it portrays it as an interactive process involving various actors, including school teachers, the board of education, and moral education experts. Through Bamkin's meticulous examination of this interactive process, we can rediscover that school teachers are not mere executors of policies from the central government but creative agents who generate diverse educational practices based on new values in their interactions with children and colleagues."
