From the Waseda Association of Political Science to the Japan Association of Political Economy
At the general meeting on 6 March 2009 (Fri), a proposal was approved to change the association's name from the Waseda Association of Political Science to the Japan Association of Political Economy. Radical changes were made about how members were organized and content planning, which until now had been largely centered around undergraduates and graduates of the Graduate School of Political Science at Waseda University, and staff members. The education and research cooperation, lead by the Waseda Institute of Political Science, between the Graduate School of Political Science and the Graduate School of Political Economy will strengthen the connection between graduates and the university by providing a system that promotes research exchanges between political science, economics, and political economy by using the political economy and international political economy's progress as a backdrop, and fusing together political science and political economy.
