Significado
A fresh or different way of looking at something.
Contexto cultural
The concept of 'Kiri-kuchi' (cutting edge/angle) is often used alongside 'shiten'. It comes from how one might cut a vegetable to see a different cross-section. In international Japanese companies, 'shiten' is often used to translate 'Diversity and Inclusion' concepts—bringing different perspectives to the table. Students are taught to look at history from the 'shiten' of different social classes, not just the rulers. Japanese 'Ma' (space) often provides a 'shiten' that values what is NOT there as much as what is.
