The article focuses on the internationalization of education and schooling in Japan. Factors affecting the trend towards international cooperation in education include political, economic, industrial, social and cultural activities expanding beyond the worldwide development of means of communication and transportation. The important international agreements concerning education adopted at the United Nations' conventions like the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Declaration of the Rights of the Child and the educational activities of international organizations such as UNESCO are based upon the idea of human solidarity. Actual and ideal factors must combine in advancing internationalization in education.
