  • Ryuichi Sakamoto
    Ryuichi Sakamoto Born in 1952, Sakamoto released his debut solo album Thousand Knives in 1978. In the same year, he formed the pioneering electronic band Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO) with Haruomi Hosono and Yukihiro Takahashi. Since YMO disbanded in 1983, he has continued to be active in and beyond the realm of media in the fields of music, movies, publishing, advertising and others. In 1984, he won a British Academy Film Award among other accolades for Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence, which he starred in and composed the score for. He later won an Academy Award and a Grammy among other honors for his score to the 1987 film The Last Emperor. He has since changed his career base to the West and earned an international reputation for pursuing innovative sounds. In Japan, Sakamoto advocated the revitalization of the nation’s music industry and established the commons music community in 2006 to provide common ground for music-related activities transcending genres and categories. Since the release of his opera LIFE in 1999, Sakamoto has often made reference to environmental and peace issues in his works. In 2000, he contributed to the efforts of Jubilee 2000 – an international movement calling for the cancellation of debts weighing on the world’s poorest countries by the year 2000 with supporters including Bono from rock band U2 and Bob Geldof. In 2001, he founded artists’ power, an artists’ organization advocating the use of renewable energy. He joined fellow members Takeshi Kobayashi and Kazutoshi Sakurai in founding the NGO ap bank in 2003. In 2006, he opposed the operation of the Rokkasho Reprocessing Plant and launched the website stop-rokkasho.org.

CSR INITIATIVES BY JAPANESE FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS .......... 36 SIF-Japan 2009 Review of Socially Responsible Investment in Japan Foreword An “eco-fund” launched in 1999 was Japan’s first financial investment product to consider the environment. Much has happened in ten years, and it now gives us great pleasure to announce the release of the 2009 Review of Socially Responsible Investment in Japan, our second such report. When initially launched, the eco-fund concept attracted much media coverage and public interest. Over the past ten years, through the many efforts of fund management firms, financial institutions, and many other interested parties, the playing field has expanded rapidly, not only with eco-funds focused mainly on Japanese equities but also socially responsible investment (SRI) funds that more broadly evaluate corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts, bond-centered products, index funds, “green” real estate investment products, micro-finance investments, and so on. The fact that Social Investment Forum Japan (SIF-Japan) has just reached its seventh year is something I would like to take as a sign that the concept of socially responsible investment has permeated throughout Japan. Meanwhile, if we look at trends in the world in the intervening years we can see that the SRI market is growing rapidly, with the creation of the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) giving added momentum.

  • Nable and Resilient Towns/Farm Parks in the UK and Japan ―――――――――――――――
    Comparative Study of a Sustainable and Resilient Towns/Farm Parks in the UK and Japan ――――――――――――――― Natsumi Kobayashi January 2021 i Abstract As we are living in a world where global warming is a matter of urgency, social inequality is urged to be eliminated, and revitalization of life in regional communities are necessary, it is natural that many of us search for the perfect sustainable life and towns/cities that can achieve them. To investigate its reality and possible future, this thesis compares two different cases of sustainable communities from the United Kingdom (UK) and Japan respectively. Totnes and District is a case in the UK, and KURKKU FIELDS (a sustainable farm park) and Kisarazu in Chiba prefecture are the other in Japan. These two cases are to be assessed using the 17 goals and 169 targets of the Sustainable Development Goals. In addition to it, an interview with KURKKU FIELDS, and an online survey is conducted to analyse the extent of awareness of terms related to sustainability and environmental awareness of both countries. The analysis made it clear that the main difference between the two communities lies in their focal points: one focuses more on ‘sustainability’, whilst the other focuses more on ‘resilience’. Although they share the same goal of achieving a sustainable community, their policies to achieve it are opposite. One would tend to work deeper and narrower with specific targets, whilst the other would tend to be shallower but wider in target areas. The result suggests a clear difference in two significant terms of ‘sustainability’ and ‘resilience’. On this basis, it is important to have both ideologies to achieve a holistic level of coverage for a perfect sustainable life.

The positions are now familiar: either there are too many biennials, devaluing the credibility of the concept, or that criticism is just sour grapes from people who can’t accept no longer being in the centre. Japan oers a fascinating microcosm of this situation. Suering from problems of depopulation and post-industrial obsolescence, municipalities, prefectural governments and chambers of commerce around the country have pinned their hopes for urban revitalization on cultural tourism, with new art events launching seemingly every year. In 2017 alone Japan is host to at least six art festivals of varying sizes and scopes. These span the length and breadth of the archipelago: from the second Sapporo International Art Festival <http://siaf.jp/en/> in Hokkaido in the north to the rst Space Art Tanegashima festival on the island o Kyushu in the south; from the inaugural Reborn-Art Festival <http://www.reborn-art-fes.jp/en/> in Miyagi Prefecture on the east coast of the main island to the inaugural Japan Alps Art Festival <http://shinano-omachi.jp> in mountainous Nagano Prefecture in the centre and the inaugural Oku-Noto Triennale <http://oku-noto.jp/en/> in the town of https://frieze.com/article/contested-constellation 2/17 2018/4/1 Contested Constellation | Frieze Suzu on the tip of the Noto Peninsula, which juts out from the west coast into the Sea of Japan.

  • A Case Study of the Great East Japan Earthquake and the Reborn-Art Festival
    論 説 A Study on the Role of Art Festivals on Disaster Recovery: A Case Study of the Great East Japan Earthquake and the Reborn-Art Festival Yuki Itoh* and Yukiko Konno† Abstract This study investigates how the Art Festival was planned and implemented in the areas affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake with the aim of regional reconstruction and promotion and analyses ‘Reborn-Art Festival’ as a case study. This case study reveals that holding art festivals in the stricken area not only contributes to the reconstruction and regional development of area, it also provides an opportunity to disseminate the current state of the stricken area. In addition, it was found that an art festival can be held with the cooperation of an incorporated association and a private company under the initiative of the private sector. 1 Introduction In 2011, the Great East Japan Earthquake occurred in the Tohoku region of Japan. As a result of this earthquake, approximately 16,000 people were killed and approximately 2,500 people were missing. About 120,000 houses were completely destroyed and about 280,000 houses were partially destroyed. It was a great human and economic damage. Wakabayashi (2011) states that the Great East Japan Earthquake caused not only human and economic losses, but also a variety of local cultural losses that had developed over hundreds of years. Wakabayashi (2011) also mentions that restoring local cultures that were destroyed by the Great East Japan Earthquake can help the community recover mentally and emotionally. Omori (2013) states that after the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake that occurred in the Kansai region in Japan in 1995, art soothed the hearts of the victims affected by the earthquake, giving them the courage to becoming a vital force in the reconstruction process.
