The programs in Ethnic Studies listed below are interdisciplinary: i.e., they combine courses in language, social or regional dialects, or literature with work in sociology, anthropology, history, or related fields. Programs concentrating exclusively (or nearly so) in language and literature (e.g., Scandinavian Studies) are omitted here, since they either operate within the context of departments whose names appear in the list of English and foreign language department chairmen, or are separate Area Studies Programs which are included in the list of Area Studies Programs appearing in this Directory.

History Of

AbstractJapan's quest for a permanent United Nations Security Council seat could be expected to lead to an increased importance for foreign language and area studies in Japan, as it did in the United States. This is particularly the case with Japan, an insular nation proud of its homogeneity with little history of immigration. Despite the inherently greater difficulties for Japan in trying to understand the outside world, there has been little increase in attempts to understand the outside world when compared to the efforts made by the United States, which started with several advantages over Japan. The example of African history is a case study of Japan's failure to interact with the wider world of international scholarship and its perpetuation of discredited ideas.

The Us

Foreign language journals are important components of interdisciplinary area studies collections at research libraries. In the US, although these are low-use materials almost by definition, they are indispensable for many types of research. Coordinated collection development among key libraries with shared interests in these materials is often the best way of broadening the collective collection, strategically reducing duplication to free up resources for broader acquisitions while relying on collection sharing infrastructures to implement shared access to the journals.
