We would like to formally thank them and let them know how much we appreciate the help and assistance we have received through their constructive reviews and suggestions to the editor which were then transmitted to the corresponding author and/or directly followed by the editorial team. Each article was reviewed by at least one reviewer, and some articles were reviewed by two reviewers before they were finally approved for publication. The following academicians, listed in alphabetical order, provided reviews for the manuscripts submitted to the Ritsumeikan Journal of Asia Pacific Studies , volume 32: A. Mani, Professor Emeritus, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University Behrooz Asgari, Associate Professor, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University Hideki Fuchinoue, Associate Professor, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University Kaori Yoshida, Associate Professor, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University Ken Arii, Associate Professor, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University Malcolm Cooper, Professor Emeritus, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University Mariner Wang, Professor, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University Nader Ghotbi, Professor, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University Sangho Kim, Professor, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University Steven B. Rothman, Associate Professor, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University William B. Claster, Associate Professor, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University Yasushi Suzuki, Professor, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University iii iv Editor’s Note The 32 nd volume of Ritsumeikan Journal of Asia Pacific Studies is being published with a couple of changes to improve both its academic quality and its appearance. There has been an attempt to redefine the mission of the journal as a platform to publish academic papers on issues related to the Asia Pacific region, including the peoples, societies and cultures, the environment, as well as business and trade, economic growth and development, regional cooperation and politics, international relations and peace studies, and other academic areas related to the Asia Pacific. We also recognize the in-house need for a peer-reviewed journal at Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University (APU) to support the development of academic research skills among graduate students and other junior researchers. Although we still do not follow the strict policy of double-blind peer review, each and every paper has been scrutinized by at least one academic with a reasonable record of research in the related field of study, and most articles are reviewed by more than one reviewer. The suggestions are transmitted to the authors and followed till implementation/resolution by the editorial desk and the chief editor. Our peer review policy is probably more stringent and vigorous for authors from outside APU, as a lot of reviews are still provided by APU faculty members who are possibly not ‘blind’ to the research work of those within APU. Nevertheless, we use this shortcoming to promote a stronger supervision over graduate research work by the related faculty members. A list of the faculty who have assisted us with the review of articles in this volume was presented on the previous page. Another change in the journal policy starting with volume 31 and continuing in this volume has been the provision of a standard classification for the types of articles approved for publication. This is a well- recognized concept in research publishing that emphasizes the methodology and material used for research. The distinction between ‘Original Research’ through analysis of primary data collected by the researcher versus ‘Review’ of other researchers’ works and through the use of secondary data is one example. In this issue we have marked seven articles as ‘Original Research’ , six articles as ‘Review’ , and one as a ‘Commentary’ . There are fourteen papers in the 32 nd volume, and the order of appearance of the articles is based on the time and order of their final approval for publication after being submitted to the RCAPS office, being reviewed, revised by the author, and going under further editing and formatting by the journal editors. This time-linked order in the appearance of published papers follows from our policy that an online copy of each paper is uploaded on our journal website immediately after being accepted and approved for publication. Two copies of the journal are sent to each author after the completed volume is printed in limited numbers. Also we have enlarged the font size of the text since the previous issue to make it more easily readable. The first article in volume 32, by Mr. Eiji Sakai and Kobe University’s Emeritus Professor Yasuo Uchida, demonstrates the use of ‘contingent valuation’ for the estimation of an economic value for the natural environment. This can be of great interest to economic researchers as it helps overcome one of the inherent difficulties in the economic assessment of natural wealth. Therefore, I recommend reading this article to especially those interested in environmental economics. v The second article by Mr. Poowin Bunyavejchewin, an independent researcher and a former lecturer of Walailak University in Thailand deliberates on the border conflict between Cambodia and Thailand at the site of Preah Vihear temple. The author has tried to offer an unbiased look into the existing conflict and help understand the historical roots and causes of the existing issue. Perhaps no conflict can be resolved unless the two sides try to understand how it developed over time and how it was influenced by various factors. I recommend reading this article to especially those interested in peace studies and conflict resolution. The third article is a review paper written by one of APU’s graduate students, Mr. Sheka Bangura, about the association of poverty and illiteracy in Sub-Saharan Africa, and specifically in Sierra Leone. This research was presented on December 8, 2012, at the Asia Pacific Conference 2012 at APU campus, Beppu city, and a summary of it has been published in the “Asia Pacific Conference 2012 Proceedings” (pp. 35-37) which is also accessible through the APU/RCAPS website. Mr. Muhammad Meraj, another graduate student at APU, has analyzed the role of globalization and trade openness policies on the wonder of rapid economic growth in Bangladesh as our 4 th article in this volume. It is hoped that his meticulous use of econometrics research methodology

  • Reinauguration of the Center for Southeast Asian Studies
    Reinauguration of the Center for Southeast Asian Studies The Institute of International Relations, Faculty of Law and Social Sciences of La Plata National University has decided to reinaugurate the Center for Southeast Asian Studies (CSEAS), Department of Asian and Pacific Studies. HISTORY The Institute of International Relations was created on November 28th 1989 by the Superior Council of La Plata National University, and began its activities on September 28th 1990 at the Faculty of Law and Social Sciences. Following its objective of study in depth the different regions of the world in the international arena, the Department of Asian and Pacific Studies was created on August 12th 1991. The Asia and the Pacific regions attract the attention of the world for several decades owing to the extraordinary transformations that happened and still happen in them in the economic, the political and the social fields, on the basis of ancient civilizations. The different countries of these regions have consolidated themself as centers of power increasingly more stronger and influential in a multipolar world. Since its first moments, the Department of Asian and Pacific Studies carried out and supported diverse initiatives to promote the knowledge of the countries of the region, and one area to which it paid special attention was Southeast Asia. Along the years, it has addressed various issues of the different countries of the region in several conferences, seminars and courses organized by the Department, where it can be highlighted the ones carried

  • COMMENT Pasts, Presents and Possibilities
    This is an Accepted Author Manuscript published in The Journal of Pacific History, 2015 http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/00223344.2015.1043040 COMMENT Pasts, Presents and Possibilities of Pacific History and Pacific Studies: As Seen by a Historian from Canberra BRONWEN DOUGLAS School of Culture, History and Language College of Asia and the Pacific Australian National University [email protected] PASTS I am a historian, not a prophet. So, rather than prognosticate much about futures, I shall discuss ‘pasts, presents, and possibilities’ with specific reference to Pacific history and, more generally, to Pacific Studies that are not always historically framed. My geographical orientation is from broadly defined Oceania, spanning Island Southeast Asia, Taiwan and Australia as well as the Pacific Islands.1 Having studied Pacific History as an honours student at the University of Adelaide, I began a PhD at the Australian National University (ANU) in the late 1960s in Jim Davidson’s Department of Pacific History, within the Research School of Pacific Studies (RSPacS), then two decades old. From the outset, the Department included Southeast Asia within its remit, but neither Australia nor, at least in principle, New Zealand. The Pacific Islands, including New Guinea, were the almost exclusive focus. The emancipatory, decolonising 1960s and 1970s were the heyday of the ‘island- centred’ school of Pacific historians to which I was an enthusiastic recruit. In retrospect, it was a common sense, rationalist historiography, inspired by universalising secular humanism or radicalism and largely unconcerned with theory or ontological differences. The key themes were ‘culture contact’, colonialism, and decolonisation, addressed from the Islanders’ point of view and with some cross-disciplinary liaisons, especially with structural functionalist anthropologists, who mostly were not much interested in history.

Vocal effort and fatigue in virtual room acoustics. Pasquale Bottalico, Lady C. Cantor Cutiva, and Eric J. Hunter (Commu- nicative Sci. and Disord., Michigan State Univ., 1026 Red Cedar Rd., Lansing, MI 48910, [email protected]) Vocal effort is a physiological entity that accounts for changes in voice production as vocal loading increases, which can be quanti- fied in terms of Sound Pressure Level (SPL). It may have implications on potential vocal fatigue risk factors. This study investigates how vocal effort is affected by room acoustics. The changes in the acoustic conditions were artificially manipulated. Thirty-nine subjects were recorded while reading a text, 15 out of them used a conversational style while 24 were instructed to read as if they were in a class- room full of children. Each subject was asked to read in three different reverberation time RT (0.4 s, 0.8 s, and 1.2 s), in two noise condi- tions (background noise at 25 dBA and Babble noise at 61 dBA), in three different auditory feedback levels (-5 dB, 0 dB, and 5 dB), for a total of 18 tasks per subject presented in a random order.

  • History of the Pacific Islands Studies Program at the University of Hawaii: 1950-198
    HISTORY OF THE PACIFIC ISLANDS STUDIES PROGRAM AT THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII: 1950-198 by AGNES QUIGG Workinq Paper Series Pacific Islands Studies Program canters for Asian cmd Pacific Studies University of Hawaii at Manoa EDITOR'S OOTE The Pacific Islands Studies Program. often referred to as PIP, at the University of Hawaii had its beginnings in 1950. These were pre-statehood days. The university was still a small territorial institution (statehood came in 1959), and it is an understatement to say that the program had very humble origins. Subsequently, it has had a very checkered history and has gone through several distinct phases. These and the program's overall history are clearly described and well analyzed by Ms. Agnes Quigg. This working paper was originally submitted by Ms. Quigg as her M.A. thesis in Pacific Islands Studies. Ms. Quigg' is a librarian in the serials division. Hamnlton Library, University of Hawaii. Earlier in this decade, she played a crucial role in the organization of the microfilming of the archives of the U.S. Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, Office of the High CommiSSioner, Saipan, Northern Marianas. The archives are now on file at Hamilton Library. Formerly, Ms. Quigg was a librarian for the Kamehameha Schools in Honolulu. R. C. Kiste Director Center for Pacific Islands Studies THE HISTORY OF THE PACIFIC ISLANDS STUDIES PROGRAM AT THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII: 1950-1986 By Agnes Quigg 1987 ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to a number of people who have helped me to complete my story.
