Much analysis has been put forth on the issue of the rela- tions between the Central Asian states and Russia, but the countries to the south and east, including China, Iran, Afghanistan, India, and Pakistan, also have a powerful but less understood effect on the Cen- tral Asian states’ security and economic interests.1 This monograph assesses the mutual interests of the Central Asian states and their Asian neighbors, and considers the implications of these interests for the United States. It also looks at the role of rela- tions between the states of the region in this context, and at the role of multinational organizations such as the Shanghai Cooperation Or- ganization (SCO). This monograph should be of interest to policy- makers and analysts involved in international security and U.S. for- eign policy. The analysis in this monograph is informed by a yearlong re- search effort, which included travel to the region and extensive inter- views with U.S., regional, and global specialists; government officials; and others. It involved a multidisciplinary team of researchers who sought to combine their understanding of politics, economics, and military strategic analysis to bring fresh perspectives to the questions at hand. This monograph is one of several reporting the results of the re- search effort. Other documents address political structures and par- ____________ 1 See Burghart and Sabonis-Helf (2004); Oliker and Shlapak (2005). v vi Central Asia and Its Neighbors: Security and Commerce at the Crossroads ticipation; religion, ethnicity, and clans; and economic development. In addition, a broad overview monograph, U.S. Interests in Central Asia: Policy Priorities and Military Roles, draws on the material in all of these assessments to define future requirements and approaches to the region. Each of these will be published separately, forthcoming from RAND.

Until late 2003, the then- director of PAF’s Strategy and Doctrine program, Dr. Edward Harshberger, provided leadership and support. Research for this re- port was completed in May 2005.

  • Prime Minister Suga, Gender Equality and Rapport Speech: a Study of Speech Style
    IPRPD International Journal of Arts, Humanities & Social Science ISSN 2693-2547 (Print), 2693-2555 (Online) Volume 02; Issue no 06: June 08, 2021 Prime Minister Suga, Gender Equality and Rapport Speech: A Study of Speech Style Shoji Azuma 1 1 Department of World Languages and Cultures, University of Utah, USA Abstract Issues related to gender equality have been widely and globally discussed in settings such as politics, education, healthcare and the workplace, among others. In Japan, the Japanese government has been working very hard to increase the number of women involved in Japanese politics, with minimal progress to date. The present prime minister of Japan, Yoshihide Suga, has intentionally sought to bring attention to this issue. He has, for the first time, selected a female cabinet relations chief for his government. His appointment of a female to this post is unprecedented. Unfortunately, due to a recent ethical code violation by the newly appointed female appointee and role model of female leadership in Japan, he felt constrained to accept her resignation from the post. The present study explores Prime Minister Suga’s treatment of this gender-related issue by examining his personal interviews with the media and press reporters in his cabinet. The study finds that Suga falls short of adopting an emotive and rapport style of speech which in turn, fails to attract listeners’ and voters’ support. Keywords: Emotion, Gender, Rapport, Speech style, Japan 1. Introduction Since the post-war period, Japan has been trying to address the controversial issue of gender roles in Japanese society. One particular focus has targeted the state of women in politics and government at the national and local levels.

    ISBN 92-3-103985-7 Introduction 2 TRADE AND THE ECONOMY(SECOND HALF OF NINETEENTH CENTURY TO EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURY)* C. Poujol and V. Fourniau Contents Introduction ....................................... 51 The agrarian question .................................. 56 Infrastructure ...................................... 61 Manufacturing and trade ................................ 68 Transforming societies ................................. 73 Conclusion ....................................... 76 Introduction Russian colonization in Central Asia may have been the last phase of an expansion of the Russian state that had begun centuries earlier. However, in terms of area, it represented the largest extent of non-Russian lands to fall under Russian control, and in a rather short period: between 1820 (the year of major political and administrative decisions aimed at the Little and Middle Kazakh Hordes, or Zhuzs) and 1885 (the year of the capture of Merv). The conquest of Central Asia also brought into the Russian empire the largest non-Russian population in an equally short time. The population of Central Asia (Steppe and Turkistan regions, including the territories that were to have protectorate status forced on them) was 9–10 million in the mid-nineteenth century. * See Map 1. 51 ISBN 92-3-103985-7 Introduction Although the motivations of the Russian empire in conquering these vast territories were essentially strategic and political, they quickly assumed a major economic dimension.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Early History: Iranian peoples such as the Soghdians and the Bactrians are the ethnic forbears of the modern Tajiks. They have inhabited parts of Central Asia for at least 2,500 years, assimilating with Turkic and Mongol groups. Between the sixth and fourth centuries B.C., present-day Tajikistan was part of the Persian Achaemenian Empire, which was conquered by Alexander the Great in the fourth century B.C. After that conquest, Tajikistan was part of the Greco-Bactrian Kingdom, a successor state to Alexander’s empire.

  • Japanese Agriculture: What Are the Keys to Its Growth?
    part 1 What does The Norinchukin Bank look like? Rethinking our Raison d’être Special Talk The Professional Perspective Opening 01 Article Japanese Agriculture: What are the Keys to its Growth? Last year, a major earthquake hit Kumamoto. Mr. Hitoshi Kinouchi, who started farming in Kumamoto in 1985 despite being brought up in Tokyo, has been running Kinouchi Farm, a tourist farm growing mainly strawberries, and was one of the people who suffered serious damage. Mr. Hayato Ishii, a journalist who knows a lot about agricultural policy, visited Mr. Kinouchi, who is trying to recover from the earthquake while continuing to train young agriculture workers on the farm where he worked for many years, and Ms. Chiaki Ino, who was trained there and became independent, at the farm in Aso, Kumamoto. Here is what was discussed about the challenges facing Japanese agriculture and requests for The Norinchukin Bank. Hayato Chiaki Hitoshi Ishii Ino Kinouchi Editorial Board Member and Young Farmer Representative Director and Editorial Writer, Kyodo News Chairman, Kinouchi Farm (Special Talk) Fear of Going Against Nature Discovered Through the Earthquake Ishii: I heard that you suffered serious damage in last year’s Kumamoto earthquake. I’d like to express my sympathy. Kinouchi: The strawberry field which is the pillar of the operation was destroyed leaving only the frames of the greenhouses. After that, the ground collapsed completely due to the heavy rain in the rainy season, and we lost 70 or 80% of the field. Ishii: From the plane, I could clearly see that despite it being the time for planting out rice, there were fields not filled with water.
