Professor Okubo first gave a brief introduction to Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution and pointed out，This constitution played an important role in the rapid development of Japan’s economy after the war。The Japanese people are also aware of the importance of Article 9 of the Constitution，This can be reflected from the trend of public opinion on the constitutional amendment controversy。Although there were calls and public opinion to amend Article 9 of the Constitution at the beginning of this century，But judging from various public opinion surveys in recent years，Japanese people are very wary of the standards for amending Article 9 of the Constitution—amending the Constitution out of defense or out of power expansion。
When talking about Bet365the historical background of the formulation and revision of the Japanese Constitution，Proposed by Professor Okubo，The 60 years after the war in Japan can be divided into three stages。Before he elaborates，First of all, he told the students the historical background of why Japan established an ideal and peaceful constitution。Article 9 of the Constitution in a sense，It was the result of the compromise between the United States at that time in order to achieve democratization in Japan, a militaristic country, and Japan in order to retain the emperor's politics。Then after the 1950s after the war，With the outbreak of the Korean War and the escalation of the Cold War，Article 9 of the Constitution has become a tool for Japan to resist the demands of the United States，As an ally of the United States, Japan has the Self-Defense Forces and can refuse to participate in the war，Invest energy into social construction，Acquire rapid development。Enter the modern era，The Gulf War breaks out，Japan realizes that it should expand its military power and is supported by the younger generation，The reason is: self-defense and international contribution。For this reason，Professor Okubo explained，Kuwait is invaded，Japan has provided tens of billions of dollars in funding，Some countries have sent troops to directly help Kuwait defend itself，In the end, Kuwait drove away Iraq and thanked many countries that sent troops and funds，But no thanks to Japan for the financial help。Therefore，Japan begins to reflect on its positioning in international contributions，That is, self-defense and international contribution。Professor Okubo has no comment on this view。
Before the end of the lecture，Professor Okubo talked about the "theory Bet365 app downloadof the right to peaceful existence" in Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution，He believes that the Japanese Constitution embodies the American pursuit of democracy。“human security”，This sentence is revived again after 50 years，The concept and positioning of human security，Changed from national security to human security。He advocates treating all countries equally、Various races，And look at security issues from the perspective of all mankind。Secondly，The definition of justice must be reflected by human historical experience，Don’t be too extreme while pursuing justice。
Question stage，Professor Okubo patiently answered students’ questions about the differences in the modernization processes between Japan and China。Professor Fan Jinxue gave a brief and concise summary of the report，Finally, Professor Okubo ended this report with warm applause from the students。
