Book publication: Kokumin ID – Donyu ni Muketa Torikumi (Citizen ID System - Efforts Toward an Implementation)
Supervised by the IISE and published by NTT Publishing. Chief Fellow Izumi Harada edited the book and also provided the Introduction. Senior Research Fellow Kazuko Yuma wrote Chapter 6.
Triggered by the “lost pension” problem, there is a rush to develop
a system, such as a social security card, by which to identify individuals. Yet
such a system can go the same way as the struggling Juki Card (Resident Registration
Card) system if its implementation is not well designed. The new system must be
secure as well as reassuring to the people. Using leading examples from Europe,
including the sectoral model adopted in Austria, this book discusses the type
of personal identification system Japan will need in future.
