How useful, after all, were the heavily militarized, bipolar security frameworks designed to manage the Cold War? What would “security” entail in the post-Cold War era? Confronted with these questions, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) published a landmark Human Development Report in 1994, claiming: The world can never be at peace unless people have security in their daily lives. Future conflicts may be within nations rather than be- tween them—with their origins buried deep in growing socio-eco- nomic deprivation and disparities. The search for security in such a milieu lies in development, not in arms.1 The integrity of the nation-state, in other words, ought to be preceded by the security of the human individual as the referential object in the study of international security. Those interested in pursuing human-focused security identified a new set of issues as threats to international security, such as terrorism, environmental disasters, pandemics, organized crime, cyberattacks, illegal immigration, climate change, and resource ex- haustion. The transnational nature of these “non-traditional” security threats requires equally non-traditional methods of engagement. Proponents of human security there- by argue that any individual state can no longer confront its security issues on its own: it will need regional (if not global) cooperation; it will need the participation of non- state actors; it will have to think holistically about the root causes of instability; and it will have to develop creative solutions that do not rely solely on its military capabilities. As Xiong Guangkai, former People’s Liberation Army general, once said: “Faced with various non-traditional security threats, actions by a single country stand no chance and international cooperation remains the only powerful and effective instrument.”2 While a call to redefine our understanding of security has helped scholars and policy- makers find new, practical ways of confronting the realities of a post-Cold War world, the conceptual framework provided by human security has not been immune to criti- cism. Roland Paris criticizes it for being overly vague and imprecise, “encompassing ev- erything from physical security to psychological well-being.”3 Other voices, emanating predominantly from non-Western countries, claim that deploying human security as a foreign policy goal provides a pretext for developed nations to interfere in the domestic affairs of developing ones.4 1 Human Development Report 1994 (New York: Oxford University Press for the United Nations Devel- opment Programme [UNDP], 1994), 1. 2 “Global Cooperation Vital for Security,” Xinhua, June 23, 2005, http://www.china.org.cn/en- glish/2005/Jun/132866.htm. 3 Roland Paris, “Human Security: Paradigm Shift or Hot Air,” International Security 26, no. 2: 88. 4 Pierre Sané, Human Security: Approaches and Challenges (Paris: United Nations Educational, Scien- tific and Cultural Organization, 2008), 4. September 2016 [1] Editor’s Note Asia in particular provides a revealing context for applying a human security paradigm, whether as an analytical tool or as a policymaking goal. That is to say, while Cold War security architecture may lay in ruins in Europe, it is still very much intact in Asia: China is still ruled by an ambitious communist party seeking to realize the gamut of its maritime-based sovereignty claims; the Korean peninsula teeters precariously along much the same lines as it did during the apogee of the Cold War; and the nuclear pow- ers of Pakistan and India have made little progress in their decades-long border dis- putes. These few instances alone should make anyone hesitate to discount the relevance of traditional, nation-state security frameworks in understanding contemporary Asia. It is precisely the juncture between these two observations—the rise of human security as a global security paradigm and the persistent legacy of traditional, Cold War security concerns in Asia—that inspired the Fall 2016 Policy Forum of the Georgetown Journal of Asian Affairs. As the title “Securing or Securitizing? Human Security in Asia” sug- gests, this issue aims to explore the relevance of human and non-traditional security in the regional context of Asia. Of particular interest to the editorial board is the complex relationship between hu- man and state security. How and when do threats to individuals become threats to the nation-state? To what extent are these non-traditional

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Making and Breaking Stereotypes: East Asian International Students’ Experiences with Cross- Cultural/Racial Interactions A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Education by Zachary Stephen Ritter 2013 © Copyright by Zachary Stephen Ritter 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Making and Breaking Stereotypes: East Asian International Students’ Experiences with Cross- Cultural/Racial Interactions by Zachary Stephen Ritter Doctor of Philosophy in Education University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Richard Wagoner, Chair In response to recent budget cuts and declining revenue streams, American colleges and universities are admitting larger numbers of international students. These students add a great deal of cultural and intellectual diversity to college campuses, but they also bring racial stereotypes that can affect cross-racial interaction as well as campus climate. Forty-seven interviews with Chinese, Japanese, and Korean graduate and undergraduate international students were conducted at the University of California, Los Angeles, regarding these students’ racial stereotypes and how contact with diverse others challenged or reinforced these stereotypes over time. Results indicated that a majority of students had racial hierarchies, which affected with whom they roomed, befriended, and dated. American media images and a lack of cross-cultural/racial interaction in home countries led to negative views toward African-Americans and Latinos. Positive cross- racial interactions, diversity courses, and living on-campus did change negative stereotypes; however, a lack of opportunities to interact with racial out-groups, international and domestic student balkanization, and language issues led to stereotype ossification in some cases. This research shows that there is a need for policy and programmatic changes at the college level that promote international and domestic student interaction.

    Enterprise Report Restoring Liberty, Opportunity, and Enterprise in America

    Issue No. 1, Winter 2016 Enterprise Report Restoring Liberty, Opportunity, and Enterprise in America Security and Free Enterprise at Home and Abroad By AEI President Arthur Brooks AEI Chairman Tully Friedman, my colleagues Michael Auslin and Daniel Blumenthal, and I recently returned from a trip to Singapore and Tokyo. We met with a variety of government and business leaders and exchanged ideas about free enterprise, entrepreneurship, and security. We also had the honor of meeting with the prime minister of Singapore and the prime minister of Japan. Japan is not only one of America’s most important allies but also the oldest democracy in Asia. It plays a pivotal role in maintaining stability in the region, particularly in the face of Chinese aggrandizement. Japan’s security is of prime importance to the United States, and American leadership in the region is crucial. Regrettably, despite an increasingly brazen China and a volatile North Korea, we are not hearing much from today’s presidential candidates about how to maintain regional stability. A major new AEI report tackles these issues head-on, along with a revanchist Russia and the ruthless Islamic State. Titled Why American Leader- ship Still Matters and developed through a bipartisan effort led by former Sens. Jon Kyl and Joseph Lieberman, the report explains why the world needs more—not less—leadership from the United States. See page 3 for more on this report. While in Singapore, I had the opportunity to speak with students at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy. I focused on the message that capitalism is the best way to help the poorest among us.

  • An Introduction to Japanese Society's Attitudes Toward Race and Skin Color

    An Introduction to Japanese Society's Attitudes Toward Race and Skin Color

    Chapter 4 An Introduction to Japanese Society’s Attitudes Toward Race and Skin Color Debito Arudou Introduction Japan, no doubt like any country or society, places cultural value on skin color and melanin content. In Japan’s case, historically and traditionally, pale, unblemished white skin is held in high regard. For example, in classical Japanese ukiyo-e and woodblock prints, Japan’s upper classes and historical figures are generally rendered with very pale skin, while Japanese women, seen mostly indoors, are generally rendered whiter than men. To the present day, Japan’s traditional entertainers (from Kabuki actors to geisha) whiten their skin cosmetically, and its heroes (as seen, e.g., in Japan’s Neputa Festival (JNTO 2011) in Aomori Prefecture) are depicted as light-skinned Japanese battling hairy, swarthy barbarians. In modern Japanese adult society, skin coloring and care is de rigueur for women and sometimes even men (Ashikari 2005). Despite being the tenth most populous nation in the world, Japan’s cosmetics market is the world’s second largest, with an annual turnover of 990 billion yen in 2009 (Austrade 2010), selling products to both lighten and darken skin. Notwithstanding Japan’s fascination with African American culture, most related products, such as UV-blocking makeup foundation, sunscreen, visors, and parasols, help to keep skin light; darker tones due to sun exposure are often negatively associated with aging skin or outdoor manual labor (Ashikari ibid). Further, in a society where most members see themselves as similarly dark-haired and dark-eyed, distinctions are made in Japanese media by darkening skin tones and lightening or coloring hair.

DEBITO ARUDOU ABSTRACT Critical Race Theory (CRT), an analytical framework grounded in American legal academia, uncovers power relationships between a racialized enfranchised majority and a disenfranchised minority. Although applied primarily to countries and societies with Caucasian majorities to analyze White Privilege this Article applies CRT to Japan, a non-White majority society. After discussing how scholarship on Japan has hitherto ignored a fundamental factor within racialization studies—the effects of skin color on the concept of “Japaneseness”—this Article examines an example of published research on the Post-WWII “konketsuji problem.”1 This research finds blind spots in the analysis, and re-examines it through CRT to uncover more nuanced power dynamics.

    Asian Extreme as Cult Cinema: The Transnational Appeal of Excess and Otherness Jessica Anne Hughes BA English and Film Studies, Wilfrid Laurier University MA Film Studies, University of British Columbia A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2016 School of Communications and Arts Hughes 2 Abstract This thesis investigates the way Western audiences respond to portrayals of excess and otherness in Japanese Extreme cinema. It explores the way a recent (2006-2016) cycle of Japanese Splatter (J-Splatter) films, including The Machine Girl (Noboru Iguchi, 2008) and Tokyo Gore Police (Yoshihiro Nishimura, 2008), have been positioned as cult due to their over-the-top representations of violence and stereotypes of Japanese culture. Phenomenological research and personal interviews interrogate Western encounters with J-Splatter films at niche film festivals and on DVD and various online platforms through independent distributors. I argue that these films are marketed to particular Western cult audiences using vocabulary and images that highlight the exotic nature of globally recognised Japanese cultural symbols such as schoolgirls and geisha. This thesis analyses J-Splatter’s transnational, cosmopolitan appeal using an approach informed by the work of Ernest Mathijs and Jamie Sexton, Matt Hills, Henry Jenkins, and Iain Robert Smith, who read the relationship between Western audiences and international cult cinema as positive and meaningful cultural interactions, demonstrating a desire to engage in more global experiences. The chapters in this thesis use textual analysis of J-Splatter films and case studies of North American and Australian film festivals and distribution companies, which include interviews with festival directors and distributors, to analyse the nature of the appeal of J- Splatter to Western audiences.
