  • Mapping the Interior Frontier of Japanese Settlers in Colonial Korea
    The Journal of Asian Studies Vol. 70, No. 3 (August) 2011: 706–729. © The Association for Asian Studies, Inc., 2011 doi:10.1017/S0021911811000878 A Sentimental Journey: Mapping the Interior Frontier of Japanese Settlers in Colonial Korea JUN UCHIDA This article explores the role of affect and sentiment in shaping cross-cultural encounters in late colonial Korea, as seen and experienced through the eyes of Japanese men and women who grew up in Seoul. By interweaving the oral and written testimonies of former settlers who came of age on the peninsula between the late 1920s and the end of colonial rule in 1945, the paper attempts to reconstruct their emotional journey into adulthood as young offspring of empire: specifically, how they apprehended colonialism, what they felt when encountering different segments of the Korean population, and in what ways their understanding of the world and themselves changed as a result of these interactions. Focusing on the intimate and everyday zones of contact in family and school life, this study more broadly offers a way to understand colonialism without reducing complex local interactions to abstract mechanisms of capital and bureaucratic rule. N WHAT WAYS CAN we talk about colonialism without reducing complex local Ihuman interactions to relations of power, dominance, and hegemony? In pro- posing emotion (see Reddy 2001; Haiyan Lee 2007) or “sensibility” (Wickberg 2007) as a lens through which to investigate the past, a number of studies have implicitly posed a new challenge for scholars of empire. Paying attention to senti- ment and sensibility, they suggest, gets us beyond an analytical grid of race, gender, and class that has dominated cultural history—where colonial studies have reigned and thrived—and allows us to probe more subtle and sensory layers of experience (Wickberg 2007, 673–74).

  • SGH Summary Report 2014-2015
    SGH Summary Report 2014-2015 Saitama Prefectural Urawa High School Saitama Prefectural Urawa High School Designated Year 2014 SGH Summary Report (2014 - 2015) Printed: March, 2016 Editor: the Research and Development committee of SGH at Urawa High School Cooperation: Scott Aikin, Kai Osawa Publisher: Saitama Prefectural Urawa High School Principal: Takeshi Sugiyama Address: Ryoke 5 - 3 - 3, Urawa-ku, Saitama City, Saitama, 330 - 9330, Japan Tel: 048 (886) 3000 Fax: 048 (885) 4647 Preface Urawa Prefectural High School was designated as a Super Global High school in 2014. In this report, we have put together a record of activities from the past two years. We applied for SGH for the following reasons. First, we aim to equip Urawa High School students to become global leaders. Students should always try to overcome the difficulties they face. With this in mind I want our students, who are expected to play an important role in the world, to strengthen themselves by nurturing more global views and interacting with various kinds of people. Second, we want to share our approach to education with the world. There are 56 high schools designated as SGHs in Japan, and we want to share our approach with these other schools. Also, the designation as an SGH has increased the number of visitors to our school. I believe transmitting the approach of our school’s all-around education to others will have a positive effect on the future direction of education in Japan. Third, I think being an SGH will augment the education of our school. If you already think that your education is satisfactory, there is little room for improvement.

  • Three Essays on the Economics of Household Decision Making
    Three Essays on the Economics of Household Decision Making DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Vipul Bhatt, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Economics The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Pok-sang Lam, Adviser Masao Ogaki, Co-adviser David Blau Paul Evans c Copyright by Vipul Bhatt 2010 Abstract My research emphasizes the role of interrelated preferences in determining economic choices within a household. In this regard, I study both intergenerational interactions (between parents and children) and intragenerational interactions (between spouses). These linkages have important implications on individual economic behavior such as savings, labor supply, investment in human capital, and bequests which in turn affects aggregate savings and growth. Standard altruism models developed by Barro and Becker are based on an important assumption that parents and children have homogeneous discount factors, which precludes any role parents can play in influencing their child’s time preferences. However, there is empirical evidence that parents attempt to shape their children’s attitudes. The first essay of my dissertation, “Tough Love and Intergenerational Altru- ism” (based on this I also have a joint work with Masao Ogaki), proposes a framework to study the role of parents in shaping children’s time preferences. The tough love altruism model modifies the standard altruism model in two ways. First, the child’s discount factor is endogenously determined so that low consumption at young ages leads to a higher discount factor later in her life. Second, the parent evaluates the child’s lifetime utility with a constant high discount factor.
