Cyril and Methodius University in Trnava Introduction There is a long history of cooperation within EU counter-terrorism policy which has been the subject of hundreds of academic books and articles utilizing various approaches. However, with the constant development of the environment and updated measures, the natural disadvantage of all published studies in this area is that they are aging very quickly. In 2013, Raphael Bossong published a comprehensive book analysing the development of the EU counter-terrorism policy by using the three streams approach, focusing on securitization, politics and policy outcomes (Bossong, 2013). It is evident from his book that every significant terrorist attack has created a “window of opportunity” during which the national interests of the EU Member States were transformed into policy outcomes resulting in the strengthening of the EU counter-terrorism policy. This paper develops and updates the work of Raphael Bossong, focusing on EU level and national level policy development after the 2015 Paris attacks. Nevertheless, due to the limited space, Bossong’s complex approach has been reduced to a short period of time (2015-2017) with a focus on policy changes within V4 countries at the national level. Moreover, policy developments at both the EU and V4 national levels are analyzed in the light of the existing EU counter-terrorism strategy which is related to the principal research question: Which of the four pillars defined within the EU Counter-Terrorism Strategy (EUCTS) was mostly developed by policy changes adopted in 2015-2017? As indicated above, measures will be analyzed at the EU and V4 level. The main claim verified in this paper is that the Paris attacks provided a new “window of opportunity”

Yvon Wang University of Toronto [email protected] Abstract This article is an exploration of media and gender in urban and peri-urban China dur- ing the 1950s and early 1960s – specifically, the persistent trope of the “hooligan,” or liumang. Since at least the late imperial period, Chinese authorities had feared unmar- ried, impoverished, rootless men as the main source of crime, disorder, and outright rebellion. Yet such figures were simultaneously celebrated as knights-errant for their violent heroism in cultural works of enormous popularity across regions and classes. As the ruling Chinese Communist Party attempted to reshape society and culture after 1949, it condemned knight-errant tales and made hooliganism a crime. At the same time, the state tried to promote a new pantheon of vigilante-like men in the guise of revolutionary heroes. But the state’s control over deeply rooted cultural markets and their products was incomplete. Moreover, the same potent tools that had empowered the Party, in particular its rhetoric of revolutionary subjectivity and its harnessing of modern media technologies, were open as never before to being adopted by the very targets of its efforts at control and censure.

CONCLUSIONES RESUMEN: El incierto estatuto jurídico de la isla de Perejil, disputada por España y Marruecos, trae causa de una confusa historia que se retrotrae a los tiempos en que Ceuta pertenecía a Portugal. Por ello, para analizar los títulos españoles hay que examinar tanto los que se derivan de los actos portugueses en el islote como los desarrollados por España a lo largo de los siglos, desde el siglo XV. Y, posteriormente, es ineludible analizar la posición de Marruecos en el contencioso. Todo ello confluye en un statu quo indeterminado que se afianzó tras el incidente militar desencadenado entre España y Marruecos en 2002.

  • Reimagining Riben Guizi: Japanese Tactical Media Performance After the 2010 Senkaku/Diaoyu Boat Collision Incident
    International Journal of Communication 11(2017), 344–362 1932–8036/20170005 Reimagining Riben Guizi: Japanese Tactical Media Performance After the 2010 Senkaku/Diaoyu Boat Collision Incident YASUHITO ABE1 Doshisha University, Japan This article investigates a Japanese online participatory community, the Hinomoto Oniko project, that emerged after the Senkaku/Diaoyu boat collision incident of 2010 in the East China Sea. Drawing on tactical media as a conceptual framework, this study analyzes how the project challenged the prevailing meaning of a Chinese slur against the Japanese via tactical use of visual media and examines how its cultural and aesthetic performances were reproduced in the Japanese media landscape. This facilitates analysis of the implications of its cultural and aesthetic performances in a networked era. Keywords: tactical media, moe, history, Japan, China This study examines a Japanese online participatory community that emerged in Japan after the Senkaku/Diaoyu boat collision incident of 2010 in the East China Sea: the Hinomoto Oniko project. The project remade a Chinese term into various images of that term though visual media; specifically, the Hinomoto Oniko project transformed the pronunciation of the Chinese term into a Japanese reading and substituted cartoon-like characters for the term. In doing so, the project sought to create an alternative space for communication between Japanese and Chinese people, albeit briefly. The project did not necessarily succeed in making the most of an opportunity for promoting communication between Japanese and Chinese people, but the project highlights the characteristic of tactical media performance in East Asia. The Chinese term temporarily disrupted by the Hinomoto Oniko project is 日本鬼子 (Riben Guizi), which originally meant “Japanese are devils” in Chinese.

Der Kalender­ mann wird auf einige grundsätzliche Fragen hinweisen, die in christlichem Geist gelöst werden sollen.

  • The Missionary As Devil: Anti-Missionary Demonology in China, 1860–1930
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Loughborough University Institutional Repository Chapter 6 Thoralf Klein Anti-missionary Demonology in China 1 The Missionary as Devil: Anti-Missionary Demonology in China, 1860–1930 Thoralf Klein As a foreign student in China in the early 1990s, I once visited the historical site of Zazhidong camp in Chongqing together with a German friend. This is a place where the Chinese Nationalists, with the help of American advisers provided by the Sino-American Cooperation Organization (SACO), interned and tortured Communists and their sympathizers in the 1940s.1 It was a cold, grey, January day, and visitors were few. Apart from ourselves, I only recall a middle-aged Chinese couple walking in our direction. As they were passing us, I overheard the man say something to his wife. He was not speaking loudly, yet, perhaps because he mistook us for Americans and counted on our not understanding Chinese, what he said was clearly audible. It was just the two words yang guizi 洋鬼子 – ‘foreign devils’.2 This expression will be the focus of my subsequent examination of how European and North American missionaries in China became the object of processes of Othering. I am not suggesting in this article that the Chinese discourse on Europe can be reduced to the demonology implied in the term (yang) guizi; there existed other terms to denote missionaries and other foreigners, some of which – as we shall see – were more neutral. However, I think that the demonizing discourse on missionaries is important for two reasons: firstly, it was the strongest way in which the Christian presence in China, which was connected with imperialism from the mid-nineteenth century well into the twentieth, was construed as an alien and harmful force; secondly, over the same period, this discourse developed in a way that reflected the profound cultural change taking place in China at the time.
