Harry Emerson Wildes (April 3, 1890 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania〔(Secretary's Second Report by Harvard College (1780- ). Class of 1913 )〕 - 1982) an American sociologist, historian and writer who is best known for his biographies of William Penn, George Fox and Anthony Wayne ==History== Born April 3, 1890, Wildes received an undergraduate degree from Harvard University in 1913, taught in Japan before 1927, and received his PhD in Sociology from the University of Pennsylvania in 1927. During the Second World War, Wildes served in the Pacific as a political advisor to the Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers (SCAP). Wildes was among those who drafted a Constitution for Japan after the Second World War under orders from General Douglas MacArthur. Wildes served on the Civil Rights Committee which utilized the precepts of the U.S Declaration of Independence, the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen of 1789, the Soviet Constitution of 1918, and the Weimar Constitution of 1919 to create a strong Bill of Rights for the Japanese Constitution. Wildes left SCAP in frustration in late 1946 and wrote an expose for the American Political Science Review charging the new political parties being formed in Japan had all the attributes of hooligan gangs. Wildes died in February 1982. Some of his papers are at Syracuse University 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Harry Emerson Wildes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
