    Japan: grasping for hope in a new imperial era | The Interpreter https://www.lowyinstitute.org/the-interpreter/japan-grasping-hope-ne... Tets Kimura Japan has three New Year’s Days this year. 1 January, the calendar new year was the obvious beginning, then followed 1 April, the start of the financial and academic year that is famously symbolised by seasonal cherry blossoms – and now 1 May, the once-only celebration of the first day of what will be known as the Reiwa era of imperial reign. The transition from the current Heisei era to the next era of Reiwa will occur as the Reigning Emperor has decided to abdicate his position to the Crown Prince, even though this was not constitutionally permissible. No Emperor has stepped down from the position in Japan in the last 200 years, but it was the Emperor’s wish to do so as he found it difficult to be responsible in his role at his age. He is 85. Tuesday will be his last day as the Emperor, and under the “one generation, one title” rule, the era of Heisei will consequently end. According to the newspaper Yomiuri Shimbun, 58% of Japanese think Japan will move to a better direction in the new era of Reiwa, whereas 17% see a negative future. The current era of Heisei started on 8 January 1989, a day after the Showa Emperor passed away. When the dramatic Showa era (1926-1989) ended, a time in which Japan experienced wars, the Allied Occupation, and the rapid post- Second World War recovery, Japan decided to name the following imperial reign period Heisei.

  • Crime and Criminal Policy in Japan Analysis and Evaluation of the Showa Era, 1926–1988
    M. Shikita, S. Tsuchiya Crime and Criminal Policy in Japan Analysis and Evaluation of the Showa Era, 1926–1988 Series: Research in Criminology The Showa Era in Japan commenced in December 1926, when Emperor Showa ascended the Throne, and came to an end in January 1989, when His Majesty passed away, ushering in the new Heisei Era. The Showa Era was marked by drastic changes in the economy, society, and political and legal sys tems, which brought about an ebb and flow in criminality and precipitated various criminal policies. From an economical, political, and criminological perspective, the Showa Era stands out as a remarkable period in Japanese his tory. The Research and Training Institute of the Ministry of Justice, which has annually published the White Paper on Crime in Japan since 1960, received Cabinet approval to introduce a special topic section, "Criminal Policy in Sho wa" in the White Paper for 1989, which was published in October the same year. This White Paper is the first comprehensive publication that deals not only with the crime situation but also with the various activities of the criminal justice system, including the police, public 1992, XXXVIII, 415 p. prosecutors' offices, courts, correctional institutions, and probation and parole supervision organisations for 63 years.

  • Mother of the Nation: Femininity, Modernity, and Class in the Image of Empress Teimei
    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.

  • Tokyo Summer in the First Year of Reiwa Is 50 Days Longer Than Any
    July 24, 2019 <Daikin 25th Survey on Attitudes of Modern People toward Air> Survey of 500 Native Tokyo Residents on “Attitudes toward Air in the Tokyo Summer in the First Year of Reiwa” Tokyo Summer in the First Year of Reiwa is 50 Days Longer Than Any Other Era in Modern History!? Direction of the Tokyo summer in the first year of Reiwa as seen from changes in attitudes from the past Showa and Heisei eras Daikin Industries, Ltd. conducted a survey of 500 native Tokyo residents on their attitudes toward air in the Reiwa Era and changes in attitudes toward air in the Tokyo summer from the Showa and the Heisei eras. Implemented since 2002, the Daikin “Survey on Attitudes of Modern People toward Air” highlights the awareness and issues that modern people have relating to “air” and aims to promote interest and appreciation among many people for “air,” which is often unnoticed in daily life. In Japan, This year marks the end of the Heisei Era, which lasted for approximately 30 years, and the beginning of the Reiwa Era. Following the Showa and Heisei eras, what will the nature of the “air” be in the Reiwa Era, and what lifestyle changes will accompany it? The Japanese summer in recent years has seen a continuation of record-setting heat waves and extreme heat, and there is concern for the direction of the 2019 summer that begins the Reiwa Era. In the “25th Survey on Attitudes of Modern People toward Air,” we conducted a survey by comparing the present and past (remembrances of respondents when they were elementary school students around the age of 10 years old) concerning changing attitudes toward air in the summer for Tokyo, a city which is expected to attract more foreign visitors and receive increasingly more attention from the world in the future, and toward air conditioners.

As can be expected, the federative organisation of such states as Germany, Switzerland, the USA, India and Russia will be reflected in their police organisation, though the extremely decentralised approach of Switzerland with hardly any central man- agement structures can hardly serve as a paradigm of ‘the’ federal police organisation.
