I am greatly honored and pleased to welcome the distinguished speakers to our faculty. We are indeed honored to have you here with us. This year will be the fourth time INUSHARTS has been held by the Faculty of Humanities, Universitas Indonesia. Previous conferences have produced more than 500 articles that have been processed in national and international publication platforms. This year, there are more than 250 research projects that will be presented in the conference on a variety of intriguing topics under the theme “Emerging Issues in the Humanities and Arts.” The Faculty of Humanities aims to be an internationally-recognized center of excellence not only in teaching but also in research, which is in accordance with Universitas Indonesia’s roadmap. The goal is not only to expand the number of international collaborations particularly in multidisciplinary research projects but also to increase the number of international publications. In the University’s roadmap, we aim to publish at least 2000 internationally-indexed articles; fortuitously, we have exceeded that goal and publish more than 2500 articles. In the spirit of pursuing a more rigorous academic and research atmosphere, INUSHARTS has become a part of the University and Faculty’s mission in disseminating research results which we also expect to benefit the society in general. I sincerely hope all of you will enjoy the next three days of scholarly discussions and networking. Thank you for your participation and once again, welcome to our green campus. I sincerely hope you will have a fruitful experience in the next three days of discussions and networking. Thank you and enjoy the symposium.

  • ACCOUNTING and AUDITING in ROMAN SOCIETY Lance Elliot
    ACCOUNTING AND AUDITING IN ROMAN SOCIETY Lance Elliot LaGroue A dissertation thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2014 Approved by: Richard Talbert Fred Naiden Howard Aldrich Terrence McIntosh © 2014 Lance Elliot LaGroue ALL RIGHTS RESERVED II ABSTRACT Lance LaGroue: Accounting and Auditing in Roman Society (Under the direction of Richard Talbert) This dissertation approaches its topic from the pathbreaking dual perspective of a historian and of an accountant. It contributes to our understanding of Roman accounting in several notable ways. The style and approach of Roman documents are now categorized to reflect differing levels of complexity and sophistication. With the aid of this delineation, and by comparison with the practices of various other premodern societies, we can now more readily appreciate the distinct attributes present at each level in Roman accounting practices. Additionally, due to the greater accessibility of Roman accounting documents in recent years – in particular, through John Matthews’ work on the Journey of Theophanes, Dominic Rathbone’s study of the Heroninos archive, and the reading of the Vindolanda tablets -- it becomes easier to appreciate such differences among the few larger caches of accounting documents. Moreover, the dissertation seeks to distinguish varying grades of accountant. Above all, it emphasizes the need to separate the functions of accounting and auditing, and to gauge the essential characteristics and roles of both. In both regards, it is claimed, the Roman method showed competency. The dissertation further shows how economic and accounting theory has influenced perceptions about Roman accounting practices.

  • Personhood 2.0: Enhanced and Unenhanced Persons and the Equal Protection of the Laws
    PERSONHOOD 2.0: ENHANCED AND UNENHANCED PERSONS AND THE EQUAL PROTECTION OF THE LAWS R. George Wright* I. INTRODUCTION It turns out that persons are in various ways upgradeable. But what if some formerly roughly equal persons are dramatically upgraded in their basic capacities, while others are not? How should our most basic law, in particular the principle of the equal protection of the laws, control the phenomenon of unequal dramatic human enhancement? The philosopher Rousseau famously took persons as they were, and on that assumedly unchanging basis, considered dramatic changes in the basic law.1 Current and future technological advances of various sorts, however, raise an opposite and at least equally important question: if we take the equal protection of the laws2 seriously, how should we react to the prospect of a society eventually divided into dramatically enhanced and unenhanced persons? 3 This Article takes up the latter question. * Michael D. McCormick Professor of Law, Indiana University School of Law Indianapolis.

  • Food for Empire: Wartime Food Politics on the Korean Homefront, 1937-1945
    Food for Empire: Wartime Food Politics on the Korean Homefront, 1937-1945 by Sunho Ko A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Sunho Ko 2018 ii Food for Empire: Wartime Food Politics on the Korean Homefront, 1937-1945 Sunho Ko Doctor of Philosophy Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto 2018 Abstract This research examines how the minute details of food production and consumption in colonial Korea became a target of wartime food politics under the rubric of improving productivity and efficiency for war efforts. In examining the politics, this research takes a more expansive approach to power and politics by locating the agency of power beyond the state and understanding its nature as more than simply totalitarian or suppressive. To this end, this study investigates the knowledge production of a group of experts—ranging from agronomists (Chapter 1 and 2) and nutritional scientists (Chapter 3 and 4), to cookbook authors (Chapter 4) and gardening manual writers (Chapter 5)—who, each in their own way, voiced opinions on the political, cultural, and social issues of the time beyond the sheer material concerns of enhancing productivity in food production and consumption. This research pays especially close attention to three recurring and entangled topics: first, the changing position of the colony and its population in the expanding empire; second, the geographical relationship between city and countryside in the urbanizing peninsula; and finally, ideal gender roles in the bourgeois domestic space. By attending to these themes through the lens of race, region, gender, and class, this study traces how a range of varied social aspirations betray tensions, dilemmas, and contractions of the time iii rather than converging in the fascist ideology for continuous improvement in total harmony, free from social conflicts.

  • 'Hell Joseon' Is More Like It As Economy Flounders
    LUND UNIVERSITY • CENTRE FOR EAST AND SOUTH-EAST ASIAN STUDIES ‘Hell Joseon’ - Tales from a South Korean Youth Trapped Between Past and Present Author: Johan Cornelis Schoonhoven Supervisor: Erik Mobrand Master’s Programme in Asian Studies Spring semester 2017 Abstract This thesis takes its outset in the newly coined expression ‘Hell Joseon’ used by the youth in South Korea. ‘Hell Joseon’ is a comparison between today’s society and the pre-modern Joseon Dynasty. By asking “what are the main characteristics of life in ‘Hell Joseon’ from a youth perspective?”, I arrive at the following conclusion. Life in ‘Hell Joseon’ is highly characterized by discrepancies between rich and poor, old and young, men and women, global and local. This is a peculiar result of Korea’s double-compressed modernity which derives from a colonial legacy, top-down modernization in the post-war era and condensed transition to a neoliberal world economy, also known as the second modernity. Therefore, traditional and (post)modern elements coexist in Korea’s society, and is partly the reason why the youth are now drawing references to the pre-modern Joseon Dynasty. Life in ‘Hell Joseon’ thus implies frustrations over high unemployment rates, a new ‘spoon class’ class division, lack of social mobility, an education fever and a downright “gender war”. More than that, it shows traces of apathy in the fact that the young generation is giving up marriage, children, jobs, hope, housing etc., but also traces of transformation since the ‘Hell Joseon’ discourse have made the youth take it to the streets, last seen in the mass demonstrations against now impeached President Park Geun-hye.

  • Classes, People, and Populism
    Classes, People, and Populism Ranabir Samaddar 2016 Classes, People, and Populism ∗ Ranabir Samaddar However, after their one heroic exploit of June, the bourgeois republicans had, from the front, to fall back to the rear of the “Party of Order” a combination formed by all the rival fractions and factions of the appropriating classes. The proper form of their joint-stock government was the Parliamentary republic, with Louis Bonaparte for its president. Theirs was a regime of avowed class terrorism and deliberate insult towards the vile multitude. Karl Marx, Civil War in France (1.710 I How to Study People and Classes in the History of Struggles and Revolutions The postcolonial context is marked supposedly by lack of adequate industrialisation, hence lack of a numerically strong working class, by inadequate modern class formations, and un-clarified class struggles. Hence communists and Marxists have not with exceptions paid sufficient attention to Marx s historical writings on politics and political struggles, particularly his writings on France. As if, these writings belong to European history and are not relevant to the history of the class and national struggles of the postcolonial people. Such an attitude is evident in for instance India where the postcolonial theorists of passive revolution while discussing economic reforms, and the neo liberal transformation of the country, etc., have been remarkably silent on the class struggles in the two twentieth century decades of sixties and seventies. 1 These struggles had actually begun in the forties, when class and national struggles had meshed with each other resulting in a tremendous radicalisation of the national content of the anti-colonial revolution.

  • Law and the Culture of Debt in Moscow on the Eve of the Great Reforms, 1850-1870
    Law and the Culture of Debt in Moscow on the Eve of the Great Reforms, 1850-1870 Sergei Antonov Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2011 © 2011 Sergei Antonov All rights reserved ABSTRACT Law and the Culture of Debt in Moscow on the Eve of the Great Reforms, 1850-1870 Sergei Antonov This dissertation is a legal and cultural history of personal debt in mid-nineteenth-century Moscow region. Historians have shown how the judicial reform of 1864 dismantled an old legal apparatus that was vulnerable to administrative interference and ultimately depended upon the tsar’s personal authority, replacing it with independent judges, jury trials, and courtroom oratory. But as many legal scholars will agree, political rhetoric about law and high-profile appellate cases fail to capture the full diversity of legal phenomena. I therefore study imperial Russian law in transition from the perspective of individuals who used the courts and formed their legal strategies and attitudes about law long before the reform. I do so through close readings of previously unexamined materials from two major archives in Russia: the Central Historical Archive of Moscow and the State Archive of the Russian Federation, including the records of county- and province-level courts and administrative bodies, supplemented by the records of the charitable Imperial Prison Society. I also analyze the relevant legislation found in imperial Russia’s Complete Collection of the Laws. Specific topics covered in the study include the cultural and social profiles of creditors and debtors and of their relations, the connection between debt and kinship structures and strategies, the institution of debt imprisonment and its rituals, various aspects of court procedure, as well as the previously unstudied issue of white-collar crime in imperial Russia.

  • “When Two Authorities Are Up”: the Mixed Constitution in Shakespeare’S Coriolanus
    “When Two Authorities Are Up”: The Mixed Constitution in Shakespeare’s Coriolanus By Lindsay Van Horn A Senior Honors Thesis Submitted to the Department of Political Science at the University of California San Diego April 1, 2019 Van Horn 2 Thank you to My advisor, Professor Sean Ingham Professors David Wiens and Seth Hill Mom and Rudy Van Horn 3 Abstract Coriolanus is one of William Shakespeare’s lesser-known plays but a treasure trove for political theorists. This paper explores its political themes with special attention paid to Shakespeare’s portrayal of the Roman Republic’s mixed constitution. While others have argued that Shakespeare endorses the mixed constitution in Titus Andronicus—one of his earliest plays—I argue that he does the same in Coriolanus, thereby offering a new reading of this four- hundred-year-old text. Specifically, the play shows us that oligarchy and democracy are undesirable forms of government, and that the political arrangement that is most conducive to cooperation and internal stability is one in which the patricians (the nobility) and the plebeians (the commoners) govern together. Other topics discussed include Coriolanus’ views on the mixed constitution and democracy, his inability to be anything but a beast, and the plebeians’ distinctly republican conception of liberty, which differs from Isaiah Berlin’s concept of negative liberty. Overall, I conclude that Coriolanus is not a conservative play—as is commonly believed—but one that demonstrates that the masses have a legitimate role to play in the polis and ought to be afforded a political voice.
