The objective of the project was to grasp the current state of how people are engaged in the traditional ways of weaving, dyeing and making cloth in the Ryukyu Islands.1 Throughout the project, we came to think it important to understand two points in order to see the direction of those who are engaged in manufacturing textiles in the Ryukyu Islands. The points are: the diversification in ways of engaging in traditional cloth making; and the importance of multi-generational relationship in sustaining traditional cloth making.

  • Nansei Islands Biological Diversity Evaluation Project Report 1 Chapter 1
    Introduction WWF Japan’s involvement with the Nansei Islands can be traced back to a request in 1982 by Prince Phillip, Duke of Edinburgh. The “World Conservation Strategy”, which was drafted at the time through a collaborative effort by the WWF’s network, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), posed the notion that the problems affecting environments were problems that had global implications. Furthermore, the findings presented offered information on precious environments extant throughout the globe and where they were distributed, thereby providing an impetus for people to think about issues relevant to humankind’s harmonious existence with the rest of nature. One of the precious natural environments for Japan given in the “World Conservation Strategy” was the Nansei Islands. The Duke of Edinburgh, who was the President of the WWF at the time (now President Emeritus), naturally sought to promote acts of conservation by those who could see them through most effectively, i.e. pertinent conservation parties in the area, a mandate which naturally fell on the shoulders of WWF Japan with regard to nature conservation activities concerning the Nansei Islands. This marked the beginning of the Nansei Islands initiative of WWF Japan, and ever since, WWF Japan has not only consistently performed globally-relevant environmental studies of particular areas within the Nansei Islands during the 1980’s and 1990’s, but has put pressure on the national and local governments to use the findings of those studies in public policy. Unfortunately, like many other places throughout the world, the deterioration of the natural environments in the Nansei Islands has yet to stop.

  • The Enduring Myth of an Okinawan Struggle: the History and Trajectory of a Diverse Community of Protest
    The Enduring Myth of an Okinawan Struggle: The History and Trajectory of a Diverse Community of Protest A dissertation presented to the Division of Arts, Murdoch University in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2003 Miyume Tanji BA (Sophia University) MA (Australian National University) I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research. It contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any university. ——————————————————————————————— ii ABSTRACT The islands of Okinawa have a long history of people’s protest. Much of this has been a manifestation in one way or another of Okinawa’s enforced assimilation into Japan and their differential treatment thereafter. However, it is only in the contemporary period that we find interpretations among academic and popular writers of a collective political movement opposing marginalisation of, and discrimination against, Okinawans. This is most powerfully expressed in the idea of the three ‘waves’ of a post-war ‘Okinawan struggle’ against the US military bases. Yet, since Okinawa’s annexation to Japan in 1879, differences have constantly existed among protest groups over the reasons for and the means by which to protest, and these have only intensified after the reversion to Japanese administration in 1972. This dissertation examines the trajectory of Okinawan protest actors, focusing on the development and nature of internal differences, the origin and survival of the idea of a united ‘Okinawan struggle’, and the implications of these factors for political reform agendas in Okinawa. It explains the internal differences in organisation, strategies and collective identities among the groups in terms of three major priorities in their protest.

  • Acanthopagrus Chinshira, a New Sparid Fish (Perciformes: Sparidae) from the East Asia
    Bull. Natl. Mus. Nat. Sci., Ser. A, Suppl. 2, pp. 47–57, March 21, 2008 Acanthopagrus chinshira, a New Sparid Fish (Perciformes: Sparidae) from the East Asia Masayuki Kume* and Tetsuo Yoshino Department of Marine Sciences, Faculty of Science, University of the Ryukyus, 1 Senbaru, Nishihara, Okinawa 903–0213, Japan E-mail: [email protected] * Present address: EAC Co. Ltd., 3–34–17 Yafuso, Urasoe, Okinawa 901–2127, Japan Abstract A new sparid fish, Acanthopagrus chinshira, is described on the basis of specimens collected from Nakagusuku Bay and Haneji Inlet, Okinawa Island, the Ryukyu Islands, Japan. Al- though the present new species has been often misidentified as Acanthopagrus australis (Günther), morphological and genetic evidence showed that it is clearly different from the latter species. This species is distinguished from the other congeners by having the following combination of charac- ters: pale (yellow when fresh) pelvic and anal fins, dorsal-fin rays XI, 11, 4 1/2 scale rows between lateral line and base of middle dorsal spine, 6 rows of cheek scales; no diffuse black blotch at ori- gin of lateral line, and no black spot on upper base of pectoral fin. This species is currently known from Okinawa Island, Japan, northwest coast of Taiwan, and Hong Kong. Key words : Sparidae, new species, Acanthopagrus chinshira, East Asia, Okinawa Island. The sparid fishes of the genus Acanthopagrus name it simply as “scale rows above lateral line”, are coastal marine fishes that are important as which is the number of scale rows from the base food fishes in tropical and temperate waters of of fifth or sixth dorsal-fin spine downward and the Indo-West Pacific.
