  • Political Outcomes of the Slips of the Tongue of Japanese Ministers
    『広島平和科学』24 (2002) pp. 197-221 ISSN0386-3565 Hiroshima Peace Science 24 (2002) Political Outcomes of the Slips of the Tongue of Japanese Ministers Noriyuki KAWANO International Radiation Information Center, Research Institute for Radiation Biology and Medicine, Hiroshima University Masatsugu MATSUO Institute for Peace Science, Hiroshima University SUMMARY “Slips of the tongue” of Japanese cabinet ministers have attracted the attention of scholars. But, focusing mainly on the backgrounds of these slips, the scholars have not paid sufficient attention to the outcomes. The present paper is an attempt at empirical identification of the political outcomes of such slips of the tongue. We distinguishs two levels of outcomes: the personal level and the government or party level. At the personal level, acknowledgment of individual responsibility is the most important of the outcomes. The ministers in question have to bear responsibility for their verbal missteps in one of three ways: resignation, apology or explanation. If they have to resign from the ministerial posts, they will never be appointed again to the post of a minister. Nevertheless, most of them will be successful in holding their seats in the Diet even - 197 - after the slips of the tongue. At the government or party level, there are three major outcomes, two or all of which frequently occur simultaneously. First, slips of the tongue may cause a split in the diplomatic relations of Japan with other countries. Secondly, they may threaten the stability of a coalition government. Thirdly, they may be used as a means of attack against the government or government party by the opposition parties.

  • Tonia Khouri Illinois House District 49
    As state-level Republicans have reached modern highs in legislative majorities and statewide offices held, the RSLC has brought attention to outstanding Future Majority Project (FMP) and Right Women, Right Now (RWRN) candidates running in critical races by highlighting them through the “Races to Watch” program since 2014. In years past, candidates featured in our campaigns proved to be essential majority makers and this cycle is no different. In Kentucky, 16 in ‘16 featured candidate Melinda Prunty helped Republicans flip the Kentucky House for the first time in 95 years. In Connecticut, 16 in ‘16 candidates Heather Somers and George Logan helped Republicans achieve split control in the state Senate, bringing Republicans to 69 chambers controlled. Meanwhile, candidates in Colorado, Maine, New York and Washington all played integral roles helping Republicans retain crucial Senate majorities in 2016 and expand our map. This round of “Races to Watch” includes LGBTQ candidates and incumbents in competitive races alongside female and minority candidates and incumbents. In total the RSLC featured 90 down ballot candidates with its five editions of the “Races to Watch” list who are changing the face of the Republican Party at the state level and are breaking barriers in state legislatures and statewide offices. www.RSLC.gop California Ronda Baldwin-Kennedy California Assembly District 44 Members of the California Assembly represent approximately 465,000 people making it the largest population-per-representative ratio of any state’s lower chamber. voterbk.com Ronda Baldwin-Kennedy is a wife and working mom who believes California has all of the potential to be an amazing place where she can continue to raise her children, and where they can build wonderful lives for themselves.

This thesis aims to explore this question by looking at Japan’s foreign policy in the region and uncovering how political actors manipulated the concept of nationalism in foreign policy discourse.

  • The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network
    PLATFORMS AND OUTSIDERS IN PARTY NETWORKS: THE EVOLUTION OF THE DIGITAL POLITICAL ADVERTISING NETWORK Bridget Barrett A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Daniel Kreiss Adam Saffer Adam Sheingate © 2020 Bridget Barrett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Bridget Barrett: Platforms and Outsiders in Party Networks: The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network (Under the direction of Daniel Kreiss) Scholars seldom examine the companies that campaigns hire to run digital advertising. This thesis presents the first network analysis of relationships between federal political committees (n = 2,077) and the companies they hired for electoral digital political advertising services (n = 1,034) across 13 years (2003–2016) and three election cycles (2008, 2012, and 2016). The network expanded from 333 nodes in 2008 to 2,202 nodes in 2016. In 2012 and 2016, Facebook and Google had the highest normalized betweenness centrality (.34 and .27 in 2012 and .55 and .24 in 2016 respectively). Given their positions in the network, Facebook and Google should be considered consequential members of party networks. Of advertising agencies hired in the 2016 electoral cycle, 23% had no declared political specialization and were hired disproportionately by non-incumbents. The thesis argues their motivations may not be as well-aligned with party goals as those of established political professionals. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ....................................................................................................................

  • THE RISE of a GLOBAL PARTY? American Party Organizations Abroad
    PARTY POLITICS VOL 9. No.2 pp. 241–255 Copyright © 2003 SAGE Publications London Thousand Oaks New Delhi THE RISE OF A GLOBAL PARTY? American Party Organizations Abroad Taylor Dark III ABSTRACT In discussions of party organization, scholars have generally assumed that such organizations operate exclusively on the domestic level, seeking to alter electoral results by raising votes and money from constituencies at home. This research note shows that this assumption is outdated, because the US Democratic and Republican parties now maintain overseas branches in dozens of different countries. These branches seek through a variety of means to mobilize the votes and financial resources of Americans abroad in an attempt to change domestic political outcomes. An analysis of the rise of these groups demonstrates the value of the concept of globalization in an area where it is usually not considered relevant, and raises new normative and practical questions about how to regulate overseas political activity by US citizens and parties. KEY WORDS American politics globalization party organization One of the oldest and most resilient ways of conceptualizing political party activity has been to divide it into three components: the party in the elec- torate, the party in government and the party as an organization. The last of these components was, of course, defined in reference to the leaders and activists who worked through the party apparatus to gain members, finan- cial contributions and votes on behalf of party nominees. Naturally enough, this activity was assumed to take place entirely within the territorial bound- aries of the country where the party contested elections – American party organizations mobilized within the USA, British parties within Britain, and so on.

From Responsibility-Based Collective Memory to Compassion-Based Individual History VI. Conclusion I. INTRODUCTION This article intends to find some clues to a solution of an important question about the concept of responsibility, namely whether and (if so) how people who were not directly involved are able to take responsibility. For that purpose, we begin by following and analyzing a controversy that has been present in Japan since the turn of the century over the question of how we should memorialize the past, and war in particular. Then we will make some considerations on responsibility in history, focusing on the concept of “post- war responsibility” that is presented and argued in that controversy. * This article is based on the paper presented at the International Workshop on “Policy and Accountability in Japan after the 1990s,” held at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (Leuven, Belgium) on September 24, 2010. I would like to thank its coordinators, Prof. Narufumi Kadomatsu (Kobe University, Japan) and Prof. Dimitri Vanoverbeke (Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium), and all its participants for their helpful comments. ** Further information on the topic of „comfort women“ can be found in the following pre- vious issues of the Journal: P.

  • Andrew Coombes I Applied for the Burns Fellowship After a Work
    Andrew Coombes I applied for the Burns Fellowship after a work colleague and Burns alumna spoke in glowing terms about the experience she had had in Berlin a few years previously. Having a long-held interest in the modern history of Germany, I felt that the fellowship programme would present me with an opportunity to explore some stories in depth for Al Jazeera English, my home organisation, while also giving me an insight into how German media operate through my host organisation in Germany. I felt mild trepidation after being accepted to the fellowship - I was concerned that having no German language skills would be a natural impediment to producing material, particularly when working in a German newsroom. I was therefore grateful that the Burns Fellowship offered two weeks of intensive German language training at the Goethe Institute. To those who are wary of applying to the Burns programme due to their lack of German - just apply regardless. I found the tuition offered by the Goethe instrumental in getting a feel for the German language and it also presented me with some useful insights into German society and culture. With umlauts practiced and my pronunciation of ‘entschuldigung’ well-drilled, I turned up early on a warm Monday morning at the Berlin parliamentary bureau of the Rheinische Post, who kindly agreed to be my host for the early part of my placement. A few days prior to the placement I had had a few kolsch beers with Michael Broecker, who leads the bureau, and found him to be approachable, engaged and eager to help in any way that he could.

I extend a recent literature that finds this relationship to be spurious due to the existence of a number of international factors, specifically the role of foreign capital. Through two-stage least square (2SLS) regressions for as wide a sample as the data allow and two case studies (Indonesia and the Philippines), I find that the presence of US capital significantly influences domestic political institutions. This relationship, however, is non-linear and interrelated with exogenous shocks.
