Good day, and thanks for stopping by my website. My name is Maximilien Xavier Rehm, and I am a German-Canadian based in Kyoto, Japan. Currently, I am a postdoctoral research assistant at the Graduate School of Global Studies at Doshisha University, where my research focus lies on Japanese politics generally and Japan's migration policy specifically. Currently, I am in the midst of a comparative research project in which I am examining the institutional origins of immigration policymaking in Germany and Japan. Overall, I have written extensively on Japan's politics, foreign policy, and of course migration policy. All of my publications can be found on this website. 

In addition to the research activities, I am also actively involved in contributing to academic exchange on campus through my work at the Research Center for Human Dignity as well as gaining teaching experience as a TA. 

Feel free to contact me through this website, or via the social media links at the top of the page.
