'''This is the sandbox space for our class First, we want to change the chronological order of the passage! Second, we want to correct wrong and delete plagiarized passages. Third, we want to add new information relating to the Hän Honour, her retirement and chair position in a non-profit as well as some more information about her student times

new introductory sentence: Chizuko Ueno has spent her entire career advocating for equality of gender in the Japanese society by means of researching diverse issues of gender and contributing to the establishment of gender studies as an acknowledged field of research in Japan.

new information: She studied Sociology at the graduate school of Kyoto University in the 1970. At the same time, she had joined a study group on women's issues that "included women from different origins, women researchers, non-professionals or professionals, housewives and students", which would later prove influential in the creation of women's studies at different post-secondary institutions in Japan.

OLD: From 1979 to 1989, she was a Lecturer and later Associate Professor at the Heian Women's College. She was an Associate Professor and Professor at the Kyoto Seika University at the Department of Humanities from 1989 to 1994.[1]

new information: In the 80ies, when a few universities in Japan offered women studies courses, Ueno tried introducing the same subject into the courses she was teaching at a junior college then too, but "had been confronted with an antagonism by [her] male colleagues" who did not seem to find this a worthwhile field of research. Things changed slowly and in 1994, the University of Tokyo adapted their curriculum to allow for the integration of gender and generation studies in to the sociology program. In the same year, Ueno was offered a position at the same university and thus became "the first woman professor to teach gender issues at the department of sociology at Tokyo University."

new: Among many other academic articles and books OLD will need to be checked for accuracy in content and plagiarism: In 1982, Ueno authored The Study of the 'Sexy Girl' (セクシィ・ギャルの大研究) and Reading the Housewife Debates (主婦論争を読む), texts that would be referred to as "The Flagbearers of 1980's Feminism".[1] Her work investigated the relationship between the "Women's Lib" (ウーマン・リブ) movement of the 1960s and Women's Liberation Movement (女性解放運動) of the 1970s.[1] The primary perspective of these works was the application of structuralist and semiotic theory to sociology in order to investigate gender-centric mechanisms in society. This public debate coincided with the prominence of other scholars such as Asada Akira, Nakazawa Shin'ichi, and Yomota Inuhiko, a period known as the New Academicism Boom (ニュー・アカデミズム・ブーム).[1]

change by adding information that is more accurate or delete, because now it sounds as if Ueno has never finished her PhD: After dropping out of her doctoral courses, Ueno worked in a marketing systems think tank and produced many works on the debates of consumption and society.[10]

this is incorrect and plagiarized from https://prabook.com/web/chizuko.ueno/1798237 and therefore needs to be deleted and then corrected: In 1993, after being rejected from many other universities as a strident feminist scholar, she received an invitation from the University of Tokyo.[6]

OLD: Knowing that other parts have been plagiarized, we need to verify this information is correct. She is a special guest professor at the Graduate School of Core Ethics and Frontier Sciences at Ritsumeikan University and a professor emeritus at the University of Tokyo.[11] She retired from this position in order to take the role of Chief Director of the Women's Action Network (WAN),[12][13] an organization designed to connect and introduce feminists from different backgrounds] The Women's Action Network website hosts news, essays, popular media reviews, and promotes certain merchandise.[

NEEDS CITATION if it's supposed to stay in here: In 1994, Ueno received the Suntory Arts and Sciences award for her work, The Rise and Fall of the Modern Family

Add: address to Tokyo University in April 2019

New On the 31st of May 2019, Finland awarded Chizuko Ueno the Hän Honourfor her dedication and pioneering work in feminism and gender studies that has "provoked debate to make Japan a better society to live in".
