 A Study on De-institutionalization of the Higher Education Study in Japan:

Aim at a University Management Study with the Constructionism

This paper discusses the formation process of the high education study in Japan. Itwas pointed out in the Japanese higher education study early to lack in a university management study with the constructionism. Then 20 years passed, but it does not yet appear. Why is it? Since I judged this to 
be a problem of science evolution, I compared it with evolution of politics.

In Japan, higher education study became active after a campus dispute. It is because the demand to the science of high education increased in Japan. And the demand to science of higher education changed, but scientific of the higher education itself does not change now. The political science de-institutionalized it depending on the change of the times, but the science of the higher education does not do it. It is caused by it that the university management study with the constructivism is not activated in Japan.
