  • The Formation of Temporary Communities in Anime Fandom: a Story of Bottom-Up Globalization ______
    THE FORMATION OF TEMPORARY COMMUNITIES IN ANIME FANDOM: A STORY OF BOTTOM-UP GLOBALIZATION ____________________________________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Fullerton ____________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Geography ____________________________________ By Cynthia R. Davis Thesis Committee Approval: Mark Drayse, Department of Geography & the Environment, Chair Jonathan Taylor, Department of Geography & the Environment Zia Salim, Department of Geography & the Environment Summer, 2017 ABSTRACT Japanese animation, commonly referred to as anime, has earned a strong foothold in the American entertainment industry over the last few decades. Anime is known by many to be a more mature option for animation fans since Western animation has typically been sanitized to be “kid-friendly.” This thesis explores how this came to be, by exploring the following questions: (1) What were the differences in the development and perception of the animation industries in Japan and the United States? (2) Why/how did people in the United States take such interest in anime? (3) What is the role of anime conventions within the anime fandom community, both historically and in the present? These questions were answered with a mix of historical research, mapping, and interviews that were conducted in 2015 at Anime Expo, North America’s largest anime convention. This thesis concludes that anime would not have succeeded as it has in the United States without the heavy involvement of domestic animation fans. Fans created networks, clubs, and conventions that allowed for the exchange of information on anime, before Japanese companies started to officially release anime titles for distribution in the United States.

    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Required Report - public distribution Date: 8/10/2015 GAIN Report Number: GM15030 Germany Exporter Guide 2015 Approved By: Kelly Stange Prepared By: Leif Erik Rehder Report Highlights: Germany has 81 million of the world’s wealthiest consumers and is by far the biggest market in the European Union. The German market offers good opportunities for U.S. exporters of consumer- oriented agricultural products. In 2014, U.S. exports of agricultural products to Germany totaled US$ 2.5 billion. Largest segments were soybeans, tree nuts, Alaska Pollock, wine, beef, and other consumer oriented products. This report provides U.S. food and agriculture exporters with background information and suggestions for entering the German market. Post: Berlin Author Defined: Section I - Market Overview Germany has 81 million of the world’s wealthiest consumers and is by far the most populous and economically powerful of the European Union’s 28 member-states. Germany’s population continues to decline due to low birth rates and reduced immigration. It is estimated that 50 percent of its population will be older than 47 in 2025 and by 2060 the population will have decreased to about 65 million. The German economy has improved markedly in recent years. The economy took a serious hit during the economic crisis. Because of the country’s strong export dependency, GDP declined by more than 5 per cent in 2009. However, the recovery in 2010/11 was equally strong resulting in a V-shaped recovery as pre-crisis real GDP was reached again in the second quarter of 2011.

And your comments on our magazine have convinced us that this is still the right way to go. But we’ve made an exception for this issue. And I’m sure you won’t hold it against us, for the occasion is unique: Messe Essen was founded 100 years ago, on 21 April 1913.

    Kazakhstan Continues Steps to Ease Visa Regime June 16. Paris – The delegation from Kazakhstan took part in the 159th General Assembly of Bureau International des Expositions (BIE) in Paris. Akhmetzhan Yessimov, Chairman of the Board of National Company “Astana EXPO-2017”, and Rapil Zhoshybayev, Commissioner for EXPO-2017, delivered a report on the progress of preparations for the event. "To create favorable conditions for foreign tourists, last year Kazakhstan abolished the visa regime with 20 developed countries. This was done unilaterally. Starting from January 1, 2017, countries with visa- free access will include the OECD members, Malaysia, Monaco, the UAE and Singapore," said Mr. Zhoshybayev in his Paris report. "We also signed an ADS agreement, which will enable Chinese tourists to travel to Kazakhstan in guided groups. The agreement makes it easier for tourist groups from China to obtain visas: applicants will not be required to attend an interview. Starting from July 1, 2016, the first tourist groups from China are expected to arrive," said the Commissioner for EXPO-2017. In his turn, Akhmetzhan Yessimov, Chairman of the Board of National Company Astana EXPO-2017, reported that "the construction of facilities for EXPO-2017 is going according to schedule." "Over 10 thousand people are engaged in the process and 500 units of equipment are being used. The current construction rate allows the completion of works by November 2016. The official participants in the exhibition have already started sending in their themed concepts for decoration of the pavilions," he said. Together with state authorities, the organizers of EXPO-2017 are working hard to ensure that tourists have a comfortable experience during their visit to the exhibition and their stay in Astana.

  • Why Did Modern Trade Fairs Appear?
    Why Did Modern Trade Fairs Appear? Albert Carreras1 and Lídia Torra2 Universitat Pompeu Fabra According to our interpretation, modern trade fairs started in Europe during the First World War and in its immediate aftermath. With the closing of trade movements during the war, many cities had to resort to the old medieval tradition of providing especial permits to traders to guarantee them personal protection during their trade meetings. During the tough post war crisis many more cities –typically industrial districts- discovered in the creation of trade fairs a powerful competitive tool to attract market transactions. We compare these developments with the remote origins of fairs, as, in both cases, trade fair development is a reaction to the closing of free markets under the pressure of political violence. Keywords: Trade fairs, Modern trade fairs, Markets, Industrial districts, International trade, First World War. JEL codes: N44, N74, N84 I. Introduction Why do trade fairs exist? When did they start? Do they matter at all? These very simple questions do not have obvious answers. At least, we have not been able to find them in the literature. To be more exact: we have not been satisfied with the answers we have found. The very few hints available, mainly in locally centred publications, suggest some continuity with traditional fairs and a lot of influence of the Universal Exhibitions. In this paper we will present our interpretation of the origins of the modern trade fairs.3 As a general movement, they started in Europe during the First World War and its immediate aftermath. There are precedents –the Leipzig trade fair is the most important, although there are others, related to the increased diffusion of the world fairs, but it is unlikely that the modern trade fairs started at that time without the impact of the First World War.
