  • Angel J. Storm, Ph.D
    Part of the “Life After Narcissism” Series | Angel J. Storm, Ph.D. 1 – You are my purpose and my dream and I live to help you fulfill yours. 2 I was traveling recently and was sitting in an airport when a friend’s husband called and told me an idea he had. “Why don’t you create a workbook of some kind that takes women through the steps of healing after a relationship with narcissism and then do a one day conference on the topic. You can travel around with these workbooks doing one day impartation sessions.” knew this was the next step and I immediately began brainstorming the content. I knew I wanted it to be customizable for each person who bought it. The reason this is in a binder is so that you can do just that. If you need to write more, add pages. If you’re not ready to work on a section, skip it or remove it altogether. If you want to go through this book more than once, you can keep your old notes and add new pages and reflect on your growth. If there are sections you want to do with a friend or a family member, I encourage you to do that and there’s space in here for all your notes and memories. This book is deeply personal. It is the fruit of a struggle that I went through to produce it. It wasn’t easy and I didn’t like it. In fact I hated years of it but I’m finally able to look back and say “it was worth it.” It was so worth it.

Drafted, negotiated and promulgated a mere fourteen months after Japan's formal surrender, 3 it has remained a model of stability amidst transformational changes in the domestic and international political landscape. 4 In the seventy-plus years since its adoption, it has not been amended once.s 1 Executive Director, Center for Japanese Legal Studies, and Lecturer in Law, Columbia Law School.

  • "Ersatz As the Day Is Long": Japanese Popular
    “ERSATZ AS THE DAY IS LONG”: JAPANESE POPULAR MUSIC, THE STRUGGLE FOR AUTHNETICITY, AND COLD WAR ORIENTALISM Robyn P. Perry A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2021 Committee: Walter Grunden, Advisor Jeremy Wallach © 2021 Robyn P. Perry All Rights Reserve iii ABSTRACT Walter Grunden, Advisor During the Allied Occupation of Japan, Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers (SCAP) Douglas MacArthur set forth on a mission to Americanize Japan. One way SCAP decided this could be done was by utilizing forms of media that were already popular in Japan, particularly the radio. The Far East Network (FEN), a network of American military radio and television stations in Japan, Okinawa, Guam, and the Philippines, began to broadcast American country & western music. By the early 1950s, Japanese country & western ensembles would begin to form, which initiated the evolution toward modern J-pop. During the first two decades of the Cold War, performers of various postwar subgenres of early Japanese rock (or J-rock), including country & western, rockabilly, kayōkyoku, eleki, and Group Sounds, would attempt to break into markets in the West. While some of these performers floundered, others were able to walk side-by-side with several Western greats or even become stars in their own right, such as when Kyu Sakamoto produced a number one hit in the United States with his “Sukiyaki” in 1963. The way that these Japanese popular music performers were perceived in the West, primarily in the United States, was rooted in centuries of Orientalist preconceptions about Japanese people, Japanese culture, and Japan that had recently been recalibrated to reflect the ethos of the Cold War.
