Venerdì 11 marzo 2011, ora locale 14:46. !! Un terremoto di magnitudo 9.0 sulla scala Richter colpisce il nord-est del Giappone, con epicentro al largo di Sendai1 . Si tratta del sisma più potente mai registratosi nella storia del paese e la sua forza distruttrice genera giganteschi tsunami, che in alcuni punti raggiungono i dieci metri di altezza, devastando così una fascia costiera di circa 650 chilometri. Il bilancio ufficiale delle vittime sale con il passare dei giorni, fino alle stime ufficiali che vogliono tra 18.500 e 20.000 i morti e dispersi. La Croce Rossa Americana stima che 19,447 persone abbiano perso la vita quel giorno e che 299,692 case! siano state distrutte o pesantemente danneggiate2 . Il terremoto danneggia, inoltre, il sistema di raffreddamento della centrale nucleare di Fukushima Dai-ichi. A seguito dell’esplosione del reattore numero 1, il 12 marzo, il governo giapponese ordina alle duecentomila persone che vivono nei dintorni della centrale di abbandonare le loro abitazioni e a chi vive a un raggio di trenta chilometri di rimanere chiuso in casa. Vengono registrati livelli di radioattività nell’aria superiori !alla norma anche a Tokyo, che dista circa trecento chilometri dalla centrale. Il 13 marzo 2011, il primo ministro Naoto Kan dichiara che il paese dovrà ora affrontare «la sua crisi più grave dopo la Seconda Guerra Mondiale». Nei giorni successivi al disastro, le attività economiche del Giappone si fermano per le interruzioni alla rete elettrica nazionale. Il 15 marzo la borsa di Tokyo registra un ribasso record del 10,55 per cento. In un paese moderno e sviluppato come il Giappone, dove i sistemi antisismici sono tra i primi al mondo e la popolazione sembra nutrire completa fiducia nelle autorità che la governano, ciò che accade quell’undici marzo 2011 sconvolge gli equilibri, le convinzioni e le basi su cui si fondavano le !certezze di un’intera nazione. In questo elaborato di tesi, la mia analisi ha inizio con un’indagine sulle connotazioni antropologiche, politiche e sociali del termine stesso disastro. Senza dimenticare di definire la specificità dell’ambiente in cui questo particolare disastro ha avuto luogo, mi propongo di illustrarne gli effetti sulla società giapponese e sul resto del mondo. Cercherò, inoltre, di esaminare la situazione attuale nelle zone sinistrate, in particolare della città di Fukushima, attraverso le testimonianze dei lavoratori della centrale Fukushima Dai-ichi, la dichiarazione del governatore della regione di Fukushima e i testi scritti dai ragazzi della scuola media superiore di Futaba. Questi ultimi, in particolare, documentano le paure e le speranze di ragazzi costretti a prendere rifugio abbandonando per sempre l’ambiente in cui sono cresciuti e con esso la propria casa, la !propria scuola e i propri amici, senza sapere nemmeno se potranno mai farvi ritorno. Quale sarà il futuro di queste persone? Fino a che punto nel Giappone di oggi le loro condizioni di vita si conoscono e quali provvedimenti sono stati attuati per migliorarle? !Quali movimenti e associazioni stanno venendo in aiuto a queste persone? Provando a rispondere a simili quesiti, cercherò di dare una voce soprattutto alle persone - a volte purtroppo dimenticate - che hanno vissuto su pelle il disastro nel #1 Sendai è una città di circa un milione di abitanti, capoluogo della prefettura di Miyagi, nel nord est del Giappone. L'area urbana è pari a 788.09 km² e si estende dall’Oceano Pacifico fino alle montagne Ōu, che corrispondono ai confini della prefettura. La città venne fondata nel 1600 dal daimyō Date Masamune ed è conosciuta dai giapponesi con il soprannome di “città degli alberi”. Durante l’inverno infatti, nel mese di dicembre, gli alberi della città vengono decorati con migliaia di luci per un evento chiamato Hikari no pageant (“Corteo di luci”). 2# Stime ufficiali della Croce Rossa americana al link: http://www.redcross.org/images/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/ m6340390_JapanEarthquakeTsunami_OneYear.pdf! ultimo accesso effettuato il 30 gennaio 2014. !6 Giappone nord-orientale.

  • Nuclear Energy Policy and the National Deliberative Poll
    Nuclear Energy Policy and the National Deliberative Poll Yasunori Sone Keio University, Japan [email protected] “Public Policy and Public Consultation: Deliberative Democracy in Asia” May 20-21, 2016 Nanyang Technological University, Singapore Summary The National Deliberative Poll on Energy and Environmental Policy was conducted in August 4-5, 2012. James Fishkin described it as “the first Deliberative Poll® (DP) anywhere in the world that was commissioned by a government to get input on a subject of national importance before a national decision.” This paper focuses on three aspects of Deliberative Polling in the policy making process. 1) Why the government adopted it as a tool of public consultation in the formal decision making process, 2) what were the poll results, and 3) how the government used it for their policy decisions. Interestingly, the poll shows us that the 285 randomly selected participants became more informed and changed their views on certain policy options. The public finally supported the zero nuclear option and concern for safety as a first criterion. It also shows that the public could not find any reliable authority to judge important key respects. It seems to be an “anomie” situation where there is no trust at all even in the nuclear specialists. After an ad hoc committee of specialists examined public consultation results such as from deliberative polls, public comments, town-meetings, and public opinion polls by media, Energy and Environment Council decided ‘the Innovative Strategy for Energy and the Environment’ that recommended the policy proposal “zero nuclear power by 2030s along with strong commitments to energy conservation and renewable energy.” The Cabinet finally made a decision according to the recommendation.

Togakushi, Thirteenth through Mid-Nineteenth Centuries by Caleb Swift Carter Doctor of Philosophy in Asian Languages and Cultures University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor William M. Bodiford, Chair This dissertation considers two intersecting aspects of premodern Japanese religions: the development of mountain-based religious systems and the formation of numinous sites. The first aspect focuses in particular on the historical emergence of a mountain religious school in Japan known as Shugendō. While previous scholarship often categorizes Shugendō as a form of folk religion, this designation tends to situate the school in overly broad terms that neglect its historical and regional stages of formation. In contrast, this project examines Shugendō through the investigation of a single site. Through a close reading of textual, epigraphical, and visual sources from Mt. Togakushi (in present-day Nagano Ken), I trace the development of Shugendō and other religious trends from roughly the thirteenth through mid-nineteenth centuries. This study further differs from previous research insofar as it analyzes Shugendō as a concrete system of practices, doctrines, members, institutions, and identities.

  • Territoriality by Folk Boundaries and Social-Geographical Conditions in Shinto-Buddhist, Catholic, and Hidden Christian Rural Communities on Hirado Island, Western Japan
    Geographical Review of Japan Series B 92(2): 51–71 (2019) Original Article The Association of Japanese Geographers Territoriality by Folk Boundaries http://www.ajg.or.jp and Social-Geographical Conditions in Shinto-Buddhist, Catholic, and Hidden Christian Rural Communities on Hirado Island, Western Japan IMAZATO Satoshi Faculty of Humanities, Kyushu University; Fukuoka 819–0395, Japan. E-mail: [email protected] Received December 10, 2018; Accepted November 24, 2019 Abstract This article explores how the sense of territoriality and various background conditions of Japanese rural communities affect the emergence of folk boundaries, which are viewed here as the contours of residents’ cognitive territory represented by religion-based symbolic markers. Specifically, I look at how the particular social-geograph- ical conditions of different communities create diverse conceptions of such boundaries, including the presence or absence of the boundaries, within the same region. Here, I focus on three Japanese villages encompassing seven local religious communities of Shinto-Buddhists, Catholics, and former Hidden Christians on Hirado Island in Kyushu. These villages are viewed respectively as examples of contrastive coexistence, degeneration, and expansion in territoriality. Among the seven religious communities, only those believing in Shinto-Buddhism, as well as Hid- den Christianity, have maintained their folk boundaries. These communities satisfy the conditions of an agglomer- ated settlement form, a size generally larger than ten households, a location isolated from other communities within the village, and strong social integration. In contrast, Catholics have not constructed such boundaries based on their historical process of settlement. However, they have influenced the forms of Shinto-Buddhists’ territoriality, although not those of Hidden Christians.

  • HIRATA KOKUGAKU and the TSUGARU DISCIPLES by Gideon
    SPIRITS AND IDENTITY IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY NORTHEASTERN JAPAN: HIRATA KOKUGAKU AND THE TSUGARU DISCIPLES by Gideon Fujiwara A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Asian Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) April 2013 © Gideon Fujiwara, 2013 ABSTRACT While previous research on kokugaku , or nativism, has explained how intellectuals imagined the singular community of Japan, this study sheds light on how posthumous disciples of Hirata Atsutane based in Tsugaru juxtaposed two “countries”—their native Tsugaru and Imperial Japan—as they transitioned from early modern to modern society in the nineteenth century. This new perspective recognizes the multiplicity of community in “Japan,” which encompasses the domain, multiple levels of statehood, and “nation,” as uncovered in recent scholarship. My analysis accentuates the shared concerns of Atsutane and the Tsugaru nativists toward spirits and the spiritual realm, ethnographic studies of commoners, identification with the north, and religious thought and worship. I chronicle the formation of this scholarly community through their correspondence with the head academy in Edo (later Tokyo), and identify their autonomous character. Hirao Rosen conducted ethnography of Tsugaru and the “world” through visiting the northern island of Ezo in 1855, and observing Americans, Europeans, and Qing Chinese stationed there. I show how Rosen engaged in self-orientation and utilized Hirata nativist theory to locate Tsugaru within the spiritual landscape of Imperial Japan. Through poetry and prose, leader Tsuruya Ariyo identified Mount Iwaki as a sacred pillar of Tsugaru, and insisted one could experience “enjoyment” from this life and beyond death in the realm of spirits.

Ruppert Histories of Premodern Japanese Religion We can start with Yoshida Kazuhiko’s 吉田一彦 Kodai Bukkyō o yominaosu 古代仏 教 をよみ なお す (Tokyo: Yoshikawa Kōbunkan, 2006), since it seems in many ways like a founder and precursor of the range of works written recently concerning early and, to some extent, medieval Japanese religion. Yoshida, who has long attempted to overcome common misconceptions concerning early Buddhism, succinctly tries to correct the public’s “common sense” (jōshiki 常識). Highlights include clarifications, including reference to primary and secondary sources that “Shōtoku Taishi” is a historical construction rather than a person, and even the story of the destruction of Buddhist images is based primarily on continental Buddhist sources; “popular Buddhism” does not begin in the Kamakura period, since even the new Kamakura Buddhisms as a group did not become promi- nent until the late fifteenth century; discourses on kami-Buddha relations in Japan were originally based on Chinese sources; for early Japanese Buddhists (including Saichō, Kūkai, and so on), Japan was a Buddhist country modeling Brian O.

    UNIVERSITY OF HAWAllllBRARI Powerful Warriors and Influential Clergy Interaction and Conflict between the Kamakura Bakufu and Religious Institutions A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'I IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN HISTORY MAY 2003 By Roy Ron Dissertation Committee: H. Paul Varley, Chairperson George J. Tanabe, Jr. Edward Davis Sharon A. Minichiello Robert Huey ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Writing a doctoral dissertation is quite an endeavor. What makes this endeavor possible is advice and support we get from teachers, friends, and family. The five members of my doctoral committee deserve many thanks for their patience and support. Special thanks go to Professor George Tanabe for stimulating discussions on Kamakura Buddhism, and at times, on human nature. But as every doctoral candidate knows, it is the doctoral advisor who is most influential. In that respect, I was truly fortunate to have Professor Paul Varley as my advisor. His sharp scholarly criticism was wonderfully balanced by his kindness and continuous support. I can only wish others have such an advisor. Professors Fred Notehelfer and Will Bodiford at UCLA, and Jeffrey Mass at Stanford, greatly influenced my development as a scholar. Professor Mass, who first introduced me to the complex world of medieval documents and Kamakura institutions, continued to encourage me until shortly before his untimely death. I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to them. In Japan, I would like to extend my appreciation and gratitude to Professors Imai Masaharu and Hayashi Yuzuru for their time, patience, and most valuable guidance.
