ABSTRACT
Hayao Kawai was the first Japanese Jungian analyst. Thanks to him, analytical psychology came to influence in Japan not only psychotherapy but also clinical psychology and other academic fields, for example, mythology, education and sociology. Kawai and his followers published numerous books on Jungian and analytical psychology, and the trend even became a ‘cultural fashion’ in the 1980s (Igeta 1998, p. 351).
