Japan - Human oriented Democratic Liberalism of Sapporo vs Practical and Bureaucratic Nationalism of Tokyo - two biggest thoughts of modern days Japan were originated and have developed in Sapporo and Tokyo speeched by the chairman of Tokyo University:

1952年に当時の東京大学総長矢内原忠雄は「明治の初年において日本の大学教育に二つの大きな中心があって、一つは東京大学で、一つは札幌農学校でありました。この二つの学校が、日本の教育における国家主義と民主主義という二大思想の源流を作ったものである。大ざっぱに言ってそういうふうに言えると思うのです」「日本の教育、少なくとも官学教育の二つの源流が東京と札幌から発しましたが、札幌から発した所の、人間を造るというリベラルな教育が主流となることが出来ず、東京大学に発したところの国家主義、国体論、皇室中心主義、そう言うものが、日本の教育の支配的な指導理念を形成した。その極、ついに太平洋戦争をひき起こし、敗戦後、日本の教育を作りなおすという段階に、今なっておるのであります」と述べている。
