A Brief Overview of Confucianism in Japan When examining the history of Japan’s political development, it is important to consider the influence that various religions and traditions have on the island nation. In dealing with a syncretistic society like Japan, where people’s daily religious practices are influenced by three major traditions (Shintô 神道, Buddhism, and Confucianism), the lines that divide the religions from each other can often seem to disappear, making the three appear to have always coexisted. In Japan, all three traditions play respective roles in the average citizen’s life, and all three serve specific purposes in answer to various ideological and metaphysical questions.

  • The Han Dynasty the Short-Lived Qin Dynasty Was Succeeded by One Of
    The Han Dynasty The short-lived Qin Dynasty was succeeded by one of the most important and long-lasting dynasties in all of Chinese history: the Han Dynasty. The Han ruled China from 206 BC–220 AD, roughly the same time as the Roman Empire ruled the entire Mediterranean world, and like the Romans, the Han Dynasty ushered in a period of peace and prosperity during which progress and cultural development took place. The Birth of a New Dynasty The Qin Dynasty did not last four years after the death of its founder, Qin Shi Huang. After the first emperor’s death, intrigue at the court and incompetent leadership gave rise to rebellion, which led to the collapse of the dynasty, followed by more rebellion throughout China. One of the rebels was Liu Bang. A man from a peasant background, he achieved a minor provincial rank and was escorting prisoners to work on the tomb of Qin Shi Huang when some of the prisoners escaped. Knowing that his failure to prevent the escapes meant he would be executed by the merciless Qin rulers, Liu Bang became a fugitive and leader of one of the many bands of rebels fighting the Qin. Through luck and victories over Qin soldiers, Liu Bang eventually acquired control over lands; he defeated the last Qin king in battle, and became king of the old state of Han. Though eighteen separate kingdoms had declared their independence from the Qin, after the fall of the dynasty the states of Han and Chu were the two most powerful, and all the other states formed coalitions around one or the other.

    Dona nobis pacem: Occupied before jus post bellum?! A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School Of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the Department of Political Science Of the College of Arts and Sciences by Albert W. Klein, Jr. LLM. Georgetown University Law Center May 1999 M.S. Troy University August 1989 J.D. University of Akron, School of Law May 1985 Committee Chair: Rebecca Sanders, Ph.D. 1 Abstract: Returning sovereignty to a vanquished county after a state on state war can be accomplished by a belligerent occupation and jus post bellum phases. The concept of belligerent occupation was developed by the French to take the place of conquest after a state on state war. Belligerent occupation seeks to return the sovereignty back to the vanquished rather than retaining control over that defeated people and territory. In the last quarter millennium, the diplomats, the militaries and the courts have established the concept of belligerent occupation but with varying success due to a lack of planning for this end. With the careful and extensive planning for the Allied occupation after the Second World War success was attained albeit with great effort during the belligerent occupation. Comparing the occupations of Germany, Japan, and Iraq several additional planning indicators are advanced for the successful completion of a belligerent occupation. Indicators deal with the occupation plans and planning for implementation, how the victors are viewed, a functioning government in the vanquished country, the homogeneity of the vanquished population, the size of the country and population of the defeated state, the length of the war prior to occupation, and the anticipated length of the occupation.
