Abstract This study combines insights from international relations, diplomatic history, and civil- military relations to improve our understanding of the tenuous arrangement between the United States and its foreign military proxies. For over a century, the U.S. has armed and trained these proxies to assume responsibilities that its own military might otherwise have to bear. But throughout that time, critics have doubted whether the U.S. could or should delegate sensitive security responsibilities to “dubious” foreign soldiers. Such doubt highlights an international analog to the principal-agent problem normally associated with domestic civil-military relations. I examine why this international principal-agent problem arose, how it has evolved over the past century, and how this evolution has shifted the U.S.’s approach to bringing its foreign agents in line with its strategic objectives.

    Mother of the Nation: Femininity, Modernity, and Class in the Image of Empress Teimei By ©2016 Alison Miller Submitted to the graduate degree program in the History of Art and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Maki Kaneko ________________________________ Dr. Sherry Fowler ________________________________ Dr. David Cateforis ________________________________ Dr. John Pultz ________________________________ Dr. Akiko Takeyama Date Defended: April 15, 2016 The Dissertation Committee for Alison Miller certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Mother of the Nation: Femininity, Modernity, and Class in the Image of Empress Teimei ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Maki Kaneko Date approved: April 15, 2016 ii Abstract This dissertation examines the political significance of the image of the Japanese Empress Teimei (1884-1951) with a focus on issues of gender and class. During the first three decades of the twentieth century, Japanese society underwent significant changes in a short amount of time. After the intense modernizations of the late nineteenth century, the start of the twentieth century witnessed an increase in overseas militarism, turbulent domestic politics, an evolving middle class, and the expansion of roles for women to play outside the home. As such, the early decades of the twentieth century in Japan were a crucial period for the formation of modern ideas about femininity and womanhood. Before, during, and after the rule of her husband Emperor Taishō (1879-1926; r. 1912-1926), Empress Teimei held a highly public role, and was frequently seen in a variety of visual media.

    PAKISTAN PERMANENT MISSION TO THE UNITED NATIONS 8 EAST 65th STREET - NEW YORK,NY 10065 -(212) 879-8600 Please check against delivei STATEMENT BY AMBASSADOR DR. MALEEHA LODHI PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE OF PAKISTAN TO THE UNITED NATIONS AT THE SIXTH COMMITTEE AGENDA ITEM-109: MEASURES TO ELIMINATE INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM New York, 3'"'^ October 2017 Mr. Chairman, On behalf of the Pakistan delegation, I congratulate you and members of the Bureau on the assumption of your offices. We are confident that you and your team will ably guide the work of this Committee. We assure you of our full support. Pakistan aligns itself with the statements delivered on behalf of the Organization of the Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM). Mr. Chairman, Terrorism has claimed innocent lives, caused widespread destruction, undermined social stability and disrupted state structures. With Daesh becoming its new and even deadlier face. terrorism and violent extremism continue to be among the most complex and imposing challenges of our time. Pakistan unequivocally condemns terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, including state terrorism. There can be no justification for the killing of innocent people anywhere, regardless of the cause or pretext. Fighting terrorism is a collective challenge and the international community must address it collaboratively. Mr. Chairman, Terrorism in Pakistan is an unfortunate by product of the political and geo-strategic developments and foreign interventions in our neighborhood over the past 40 years. We have lost over 27,000 of our citizens and law enforcement personnel to this scourge, with many more injured and maimed for life.
