In the interview, Professor Kariya, who is a Japanese sociologist at the University of Oxford, points out that the habits of the Japanese way of thinking focus on completing things with a vague understanding without delving into deep thought, therefore Japanese tend to be less adept at discussion than Westerners. He argues that this habit of thinking has been formed by the history of Japan since ancient times, and that this habit cannot be easily corrected through training.
However, he emphasizes that the ambiguity of Japanese thinking makes it easy to harmonize different things and is the source of unique ideas for the Japanese. For example, many Japanese inventions that are popular overseas, such as washlet toilets, JPOP, and hybrid cars, can be said to have been created with a Japanese way of thinking that is neither Western nor Asian.
Reading this article will make you realize that there is actually a big advantage in the thinking habits of Japanese people.

In 2023, He was awarded a Japanese Medal of Honour with Purple Ribbon, which is awarded to individuals who have made an outstanding contribution to academic and artistic developments, improvements, and accomplishments.
