    United States’ Track II Diplomacy During the Second North Korean Nuclear Crisis (2002-2008) by Priscilla Kim A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire February 2019 STUDENT DECLARATION FORM Concurrent registration for two or more academic awards I declare that while registered as a candidate for the research degree, I have not been a registered candidate or enrolled student for another award of the University or other academic or professional institution Material submitted for another award I declare that no material contained in the thesis has been used in any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work Collaboration Where a candidate’s research programme is part of a collaborative project, the thesis must indicate in addition clearly the candidate’s individual contribution and the extent of the collaboration. Please state below: This research programme was not part of a collaborative project Signature of Candidate ____ ___________________________ Type of Award ____ Doctor of Philosophy ____________________________ School ____School of Languages and Global Studies______________ Abstract In the realm of academia and US government, scholars and policymakers argue that diplomacy is no longer a viable option towards dismantling North Korea’s nuclear program. I, however, argue that it is too early to declare diplomacy as a failed solution, due to the lack of research on Track II diplomacy between the US and North Korea. While there is a large amount of literature on US foreign policy towards North Korea, there is little literature that seeks to explain United States Track II diplomacy towards North Korea.

  • Old Enemies, New Friends: Australia and the Impact of the Pacific War
    Old Enemies, New Friends: Australia and the Impact of the Pacific War Peter Dennis The Second World War, and especially the Pacific War, was a profoundly disturbing experience for Australia. While for the metropolitan imperial centre, the United Kingdom, a ‘Germany first’ strategy against the three Axis powers made eminent sense, as indeed it did for its partners from mid to late 1941, the Soviet Union and the United States, for an outlying country such as Australia, the war posed fundamental questions about its priorities and interests. Well before the fall of Singapore exposed the hollowness of the overarching imperial defence policy centred on the naval base at Singapore, Australia had been increasingly concerned about the threat from Asia, and specifically the threat from Japan. Fear of Asia generally, and, from the mid to late nineteenth century, of Japan specifically, had been a constant thread in Australian considerations of its security and place in the region. Even before the Japanese naval victory over Russia at Tsushima in 1905, Australia fears that its interests were of a lesser order in the minds of imperial policy makers were confirmed by the conclusion of the Anglo-Japanese Alliance of 1902. While this was regarded in British circles as a clever and timely answer to the emergence of Germany as the main threat to the United Kingdom, Australian leaders saw the withdrawal of British naval forces from the Pacific and the acknowledgment of Japan’s primacy in the region as an alarming development. Both the United Kingdom and Japan could point to tangible benefits that flowed from the alliance; Australia could see only a deterioration of its security position and, in the background, a questioning of its relationship with the ‘Mother Country.’1 How could Australian security be assured? One answer, an answer that continues to have resonance in the Australia of the 21st century, was to rely on ‘great and powerful friends’ to come to Australia’s aid in times of crisis.

Over 80,000 books are published every year in Japan, offering a diverse selection of information and ideas. In this great ocean of books, there are many works that can be enjoyed by a global audience, with troves of timeless knowledge amassed across the ages that both transcend history and cross borders. However, many such books remain largely unknown due to the language barrier and therefore limited number of translations. JAPAN LIBRARY is a collection of specially selected Japanese works in English, providing a broad range of titles from the vast canon of nonfiction—politics, foreign policy, social sciences, culture, philosophy, science and technology, and more. We strive to provide the deft translations and worldwide distribution needed to make the best of these works more accessible to a wider audience. We believe these works provide a useful start in fostering mutual discussion and understanding, ultimately contributing towards the enrichment of a universal, global knowledge. 54 BACKLIST NEW TITLES Political Science History, Memory, and Politics in Postwar Japan Edited by IOKIBE Kaoru, KOMIYA Kazuo, HOSOYA Yuichi, MIYAGI Taizo, and the Tokyo Foundation for Policy Research’s Political and Diplomatic Review Project Translated by Christopher F.

  • Performing Father–Daughter Love: Inoue Hisashi's Face of Jizo
    9/3/2015 Intersections: Performing Father­Daughter Love: Inoue Hisashi's <i>Face of Jizo</i> Intersections: Gender and Sexuality in Asia and the Pacific Issue 16, March 2008 Performing Father–Daughter Love: Inoue Hisashi's Face of Jizo Tomoko Aoyama 1. It is generally agreed that the father–daughter relationship has suffered from a lack of attention for centuries in many cultures around the globe.[1] In the nuclear family, according to Esperanza Ramirez­Christensen, it is 'at once the most superfluous and the most revealing'[2] of all relationships, including those between husband and wife, parent and child, and siblings. Ramirez­ Christensen continues: It is superfluous because the daughter's traditional structural role in the middle­class family has been negligible. She was not expected to carry on the father's name and patrimony, which belonged to the son. At best, she was her mother's helper, a temporary family member until marriage took her away to assume her proper structural role as wife and mother in another family. And yet it is just this ambiguity of the daughter's positioning as both insider and outsider that brings into focus the nature of the family as an artificial social construction constituted by the patriarchal imperative to perpetuate itself. Through marriage with another family's son, the daughter has been the necessary link in the formation of the social alliances that structure the community.[3] Despite this relative neglect and the 'virtual absence of critical studies,'[4] there are a number of conspicuous representations of father–daughter relations in mythology, drama, literature, and film.
