This study shows that we can see three kinds of people in the comparative history of the UK and Japan, through the research as follows: First, both Eden and Cedar PAUL who criticised the liberal arts education for the working class, especially by the WEA in the UK, and TSUCHIDA Kyôson who was the top of the same kind of education for adults in Japan, had problems on respecting the general-public. Second, as Tsuchida wondered if the WEA might have been an organisation for conciliating the working class, he would not get to know about the WEA. So, he missed the autodidact culture of it. Third, the young people at Chiyo Village in Nagano Prefecture rose up for their self-education, close to the autodidact culture of the UK, after Tsuchida's failing of continuing the movement of Free Colleges, mainly because of his lack of respecting the general-public.
