Ausstellung: "'The Independence of Scholarship'; 80 Years After the War" an der Waseda Universität

- 14. Juli
- 1 Min. Lesezeit
"Eighty years have passed since the end of World War II. As memories of the war fade, it is becoming a “distant event” for younger generations. At the same time, recent global events remind us that war remains a present and ongoing reality.
During the war, Waseda University suffered significant damage and, in some respects, was compelled to cooperate with the war effort. This exhibition, held in conjunction with the compilation of Waseda University 150-Year History, Volume II (Postwar Era), looks back on how the “independence of scholarship” was lost during wartime and how it was reasserted in the postwar period. Through this reflection, we seek to reexamine what the “independence of scholarship” truly means for a university.
We hope this will serve as an opportunity to pass on the experiences of those who confronted the realities of war to future generations."
