Q- Genkai Nada Scenic Coast Travel Guide of Scenic Byway Kyushu Q-❼ Genkai Nada Scenic Coast Cities of Fukuoka and Itoshima in Fukuoka Pref., and Karatsu City and Genkai Town in Saga Pref.－Historic Ruins since ancient ages, Gateway toward Asia, and Scenic Nature facing to Genkai Nada Sea Ancient Japan is called "Wa", and Chinese history books introduce Japanese customs and geography around the 2nd and 3rd centuries. It is estimated that our country at that time was consisted of more than 100 city-states, but there were three city- states facing the Genkai Nada sea: Matsura-koku, Ito-koku, and Na-koku. It was written that Matsura-koku was in the place just across the sea from Iki Island. In addition, although Ito-koku was a small country, it was said that messengers from Daifang Commandery (an ancient county in Midwestern part of the Korean Peninsula) had always stopped, and Na-koku was a large country with more than 20,000 households. About 1800 years have passed since then, but if they are compared, it is estimated that "Matsura" is the present Karatsu city, "Ito" , the city of Itoshima, and "Na", Minami-Ward of Fukuoka City or Kasuga City (see the map). In ancient times, people from the Korean Peninsula landed in the Higashi-matsuura area via Tsushima and Iki Island, and various civilization were transmitted. In addition, Itoshima had many sea- related archaeological sites such as shell mounds and fisheries, and (1) View of Shikanoshima Island.

  • From the Japanese Traditional Edo Culture to Anime and Manga Takuji
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Kwansei Gakuin University Repository 1 Kwansei Gakuin University Social Sciences Review Vol.19, 2014 Nishinomiya, Japan Roots of Cool Japan: From the Japanese Traditional Edo Culture to Anime and Manga Takuji OKUNO Japan’s transition from making things to making tales Japanese popular culture, known as “Cool Japan,” includes animations, comics, video games, figures, and J-pops that are highly acclaimed in Europe and the United States as well as throughout Asia. From the 1970s to the 1980s, Japan gained confidence in its ability to “make things” because consumers around the world embraced its manufactured products such as electric home appliances and automobiles with open arms in preference to the products of other advanced countries. However, at the beginning of the Heisei era, the bubble in the Japanese economy suddenly burst and Japan’s gross national product (GNP) plummeted, resulting in what is termed “the burst of economic bubble of 1990.” Relatively cheaper manufactured products from other Asian countries gained precedence over Japanese products. In response, many Japanese manufacturers moved their production plants to other Asian countries, particularly settling in mainland China, where labor costs were lower than in Japan. The recession was protracted and the Japanese people suffered from a sense low confidence in their abilities to overcome the recession. By the late 1990s, Prime Ministers Mori and, subsequently, Koizumi responded to Japanese political leader Heizo Takenaka’s advocacy of an information technology (IT) revolution in Japan as a way to beat the recession.

There is a walking path around the circumference of the pond that is just a little over two kilometers long and is popular for jogging and leisurely strolls by the water. Ohori is Japanese for moat, and the pond at the center of the park once served as part of the moat system of the neighboring Fukuoka Castle. The park was constructed between 1926 and 1929 and designed after the classical garden style of the West Lake in China. There are three islands in the middle of the pond that are connected to the mainland and each other by elegant stone bridges. Fukuoka Castle Jonai, Chuo Ward, Fukuoka, Fukuoka Prefecture Phone: +81 92-711-4666 Hours: Always Open Admission: Free The ruins of Fukuoka Castle (福岡城跡, Fukuokajoato) are located in the middle of the city in Maizuru Park, named after the castle's alias, Maizuru Castle. During the Edo Period (1603-1867), Fukuoka Castle used to be the largest castle on Kyushu, but it was almost completely torn down after the Meiji Restoration as an unwanted symbol of the feudal past. Nowadays only ruined walls and a few turrets remain, and the park attracts visitors with walking trails and a few lookout points.

    A Repeated Story of the Tragedy of the Commons A Short Survey on the Pacific Bluefin Tuna Fisheries and Farming in Japan YASUHIRO SANADA A Repeated Story of the Tragedy of the Commons A Short Survey on the Pacific Bluefin Tuna Fisheries and Farming in Japan YASUHIRO SANADA Organization for Regional and Inter-regional Studies, Waseda University Contents Introduction 1 List of Abbreviations 4 PART 1: PBF Fisheries in Japan 7 PART 2: Fish Farming in Japan 53 Conclusion 89 Annexes 91 Acknowledgements This study was funded by the Pew Charitable Trusts based on a research agreement between Waseda University and the Pew Charitable Trust on “Research and Analysis on Fisheries Issues in Japan.” We gratefully acknowledge generous support from the Pew Charitable Trust. Introduction On November 17, 2014, the news that the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) added the Pacific Bluefin tuna (PBF) to its Red List of Threatened Species as “Vulnerable,” which meant that it was threatened with extinction, made headlines and received substantial TV coverage around Japan. After citing the IUCN’s comment that the species was extensively targeted by the fishing industry for the predominant sushi and sashimi markets in Asia, Mainichi Shimbun, one of the major newspapers in Japan, reported that the population was estimated to have declined by 19 to 33% over the past 22 years1. Nihon Keizai Shimbun, a leading Japanese economic newspaper, referring to the fact that the American eel was also added to the List as “Endangered,” pointed out that

Among other ideas, Eastern aesthetics suggests that ordered structure contrives, that logical exposition falsifies, and that linear, consecutive argument eventually limits. As the aesthetician Itoh Teiji has stated regard­ ing the difficultiesthat Japanese experience in defin­ ing aesthetics: "Thedilemma we face is that our grasp is intuitive and perceptual rather than rational and logical:' Aesthetic enjoyment recognizes artistic pat­ terns, but such patterns cannot be too rigid or too circumscribed. Most likely to succeed in definingJapanese aes­ thetics is a net of associations composed of listings or jottings, connected intuitively, that fills in a back­ ground and renders the subject visible.

  • Proceedings of I2CNER Annual Symposium 2018
    MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR This year’s Annual Symposium is organized by our Thermal Science and Engineering Division. Our focus is to address efficiency in power generation, energy production and storage, and energy utilization. It is well known that one of the objectives of our Institute is that, through our scenarios, we develop energy solutions that aim to reduce CO2 emissions by 70% from the 1990 levels by the year 2050. A key technology strategy toward achieving our goal is to increase efficiency in both energy generation and utilization, and it is precisely the target that this year’s symposium will aim to review. From this discussion, we hope to establish a more concerted pathway for our research efforts. In particular, this year we wish to: assess our efforts toward improved and smart conversion of waste heat, consider the use of nanomaterials and metal‐organic frameworks for efficient heat pump cycles, explore next generation working fluids and their thermophysical properties, and discuss the subject of nanoscale transport and heat transfer mechanisms. Lastly, through discussion and debate we aim to review the efficacy of I2CNER’s research portfolio regarding the energy technologies we are aiming to enable as well as the associated CO2 emission reductions. I would like to take this opportunity to express, on behalf of all faculty, researchers, and administrative staff of I2CNER, our sincere appreciation to all who have supported the Institute and contributed to its progress. It is my great hope that we engage each other in active discourse, find and establish new research connections, and leave with a renewed excitement and appreciation for scientific discovery.
