New Opportunities for Polish-Japanese Cooperation: Diagnosis and Prospects

New Opportunities for Polish-Japanese Cooperation: Diagnosis and Prospects

Jolanta Młodawska-Bronowska

Ebook
This monograph covers the output of the conference titled “2014 - New Opportunities for Japan and V-4 Cooperation” and contains Japanese and Polish contributions. It offers reflections on the statu nascendi of economic and cultural relations between the two nations. Viewpoints and research results mirror the various interests and arguments of the scholars (mainly economists, sociologists, and japanlogists), businessmen, and representatives of administrative bodies (central and local governments) who participated in the conference, all of whom are searching for common solutions.
The presented papers are very much diversified with respect to their content and writing styles. The book itself reflects an eclectic approach. The multifaceted approach to the discussed issues facilitates the comparison of expectations against real life activities. The most important goal of the book is to identify the potential for collaboration and crucial fields in which there exist challenges and a need for changes, all in the interest of leading to a new stage of reciprocally profitable relations between Poland and Japan in today’s globalised world.
