The Significance of Innovation, International Cooperation and making a Grand Design under Globalized Economy

Abstract

This year (2010) is 25th commemoration year that JAMES had been established since 1985. It can besaid that 1985, when this academic society was established, is a turning point that came for the world to change the aspect greatly. Since the relation of international interdependence has been rapidly deepening 25 years, Global economy came to enable us to enjoy a lot of profits, while a regional crisis used to remain regional came to spread instantaneously throughout the world. As prescription for such a global crisis, promotion of effective innovation under international cooperation is a pressing issue. And at the same time, we would have to make a grand design that efficiently assembles new technologies (prescriptions) under international cooperation.
Since its establishment, JAMES has being discussing problems that should be thought globally with specialists in each field of the problems. In 2010, as JAMES has an academic agreement with Pakistan Macro-Engineering Society, we expect the activity of JAMES to be expanded. I hope that this year (2010) becomes a turning point where the JAMES makes a step toward the true internationalization.
