  • The Jesuit Mission and Jihi No Kumi (Confraria De Misericórdia)
    The Jesuit Mission and Jihi no Kumi (Confraria de Misericórdia) Takashi GONOI Professor Emeritus, University of Tokyo Introduction During the 80-year period starting when the Jesuit missionary Francis Xavier and his party arrived in Kagoshima in August of 1549 and propagated their Christian teachings until the early 1630s, it is estimated that a total of 760,000 Japanese converted to Chris- tianity. Followers of Christianity were called “kirishitan” in Japanese from the Portu- guese christão. As of January 1614, when the Tokugawa shogunate enacted its prohibi- tion of the religion, kirishitan are estimated to have been 370,000. This corresponds to 2.2% of the estimated population of 17 million of the time (the number of Christians in Japan today is estimated at around 1.1 million with Roman Catholics and Protestants combined, amounting to 0.9% of total population of 127 million). In November 1614, 99 missionaries were expelled from Japan. This was about two-thirds of the total number in the country. The 45 missionaries who stayed behind in hiding engaged in religious in- struction of the remaining kirishitan. The small number of missionaries was assisted by brotherhoods and sodalities, which acted in the missionaries’ place to provide care and guidance to the various kirishitan communities in different parts of Japan. During the two and a half centuries of harsh prohibition of Christianity, the confraria (“brother- hood”, translated as “kumi” in Japanese) played a major role in maintaining the faith of the hidden kirishitan. An overview of the state of the kirishitan faith in premodern Japan will be given in terms of the process of formation of that faith, its actual condition, and the activities of the confraria.

Funaiole 27 October 2014 Word Count: 79,419 iii Abstract This thesis examines the foreign policy evolution of Japan from the time of its modernization during the mid-nineteenth century though the present. It is argued that infringements upon Japanese sovereignty and geopolitical vulnerabilities have conditioned Japanese leaders towards power seeking policy obJectives. The core variables of statehood, namely power and sovereignty, and the perception of state elites are traced over this broad time period to provide a historical foundation for framing contemporary analyses of Japanese foreign policy. To facilitate this research, a unique framework that accounts for both the foreign policy preferences of Japanese leaders and the external constraints of the international system is developed. Neoclassical realist understandings of self-help and relative power distributions form the basis of the presented analysis, while constructivism offers crucial insights into ideational factors that influence state elites.

History of the 1994-2004 Aston Martin DB7 The first Aston Martin produced by the company under full Ford ownership was the DB7 in 1993. The DB7 was initially available as a coupe, and was intended to be a more achievable model in comparison to the hand-built Virage. Achievable is relative, of course, as the DB7 coupe cost $140,000. Still, Ford’s mass market aspirations were realized as approximately 7,000 DB7s were built from 1993 to 2004, making it the most prolific model Aston ever made. In fact, Aston acquired a factory in Bloxham, Oxfordshire, in order to handle demand. Despite its production numbers, however, the DB7 was anything but pedestrian. Its sinewy styling, courtesy of Ian Callum, was a great departure from Aston Martin designs of the previous two decades.

    AUTO INDUSTRY A Digital Marketing Perspective Innovative strategies for segmenting and targeting auto audiences Introduction 2017 has seen mixed results for the automotive industry in the UK. Manufacturers and dealers are dealing with a weakening pound and declining consumer confidence, coupled with changing customer preferences and policies. This has compounded into the following market shifts: - New car sales have cooled down after 5 years of strong growth, with Q2 seeing the largest quarterly fall in more than 6 years of 10.3%. - In contrast, used car sales have risen steadily by 3.4% over Q1, and expected to take share from new car sales over the second half of the year. - Coupled with the government’s decision to ban diesel vehicles by 2040 and growing health concerns, diesel car sales have dipped by 15% in June. - Consumers, instead, are rapidly adopting environmental and efficient vehicle options, with electric and hybrid car registrations increasing by over 30% in June year-on-year. (Source: SMMT 2017) Automotive Report Page 2 Consumers have also become highly sophisticated with their research and buying cycles. According to Luth Research, a typical car buyer has 900 digital interactions over three months before purchase. In order to target these evolving channels, marketers are shifting away from traditional mediums (with the exception of TV), and investing more in targeted digital advertising and search marketing strategies. Marketers in the automotive industry are now faced with the following challenges: - Determining which channels reap the highest ROI for brand building and targeting - Segmenting audiences with precision at the various stages of the customer’s journey - Transforming online prospects into offline buyers through targeted and trackable means In this report, we look at key tactics for manufacturers to identify and target high prospect audiences online.

My son Matthew and I with my first Aston Martin There is an aura about Aston Martin, a heritage far beyond simple statistics. Winning at Le Mans, victory in the World Sportscar Championship, the Zagatos and Royal patronage would be enough for any car manufacturer. Aston Martin goes beyond that – every car has its character and every owner, real pride in his or her car. Any market place has pitfalls for the unwary and opportunities for the unscrupulous.
