Toward a Comparative Institutional Analysis of Human Characteristics, Global Sustainability, etc.

Title: "Toward a Comparative Institutional Analysis of Human Characteristics, and Corporate, National and Global Sustainability" Professor Kazuhiro Taniguchi, Faculty of Business and Commerce, Keio University Comparative Institutional Analysis (CIA) is a general framework for analyzing the emergence, change and diversity of institutions, developed under the intellectual leadership by Stanford University Professor Masahiko Aoki. I was blessed with the opportunity to become involved in Professor Aoki's CIA research, and to observe the current state of institutional change and institutional diversity in the US, the UK, and China, among others. From a CIA perspective, institutions are considered as not only public representations such as legal statutes, but also shared beliefs on how others will act. Institutions not only restrict our cognition and action, but also enable the expansion of the possibilities by liberating various cognitive resources. I am currently involved in collaborative research that focuses on physical technologies that augment human capabilities (cognition and experience) such as AI and robotic technology, as well as social technologies such as law and organizations. Taniguchi I often think that it would be difficult for us to draw a hard line between social and physical technologies because they complement each other and become overlapped. Unfortunately, current theories can't deal with this kind of thorny issue. Serena It seems to me the speed at which technologies such as AI and robot evolve has become much faster than the pace of the development of institutions such as law and regulation. Comparative Institutional Analysis has previously been applied to wide-ranging issues, such as the diversity in corporate organization, the forms of the state, and a comparison of the nuclear accidents at Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima. From a corporate sustainability perspective, I place my focus on strategic managers that can change existing business models and organizations. At the national and global level, I focus on the historical institution of Fukushima and the nuclear accident there that allowed radioactive substances to spread. The technology behind nuclear power generation, which was expected to be environmentally friendly and helpful to the development of regional economies, has actually worked to mercilessly destroy a region. The reason for this lies in history. I believe it is essential to understand human characteristics and foster a dynamic capability adapted to change so that institutions can be created for a sustainable planet.
