Despite the liberty of individuals, the government sometimes compels an individual to refrain from a particular act 'for his/her own good'. This is usually justified by one of the following arguments: harm to others, offense to others, legal moralism, or paternalism. Our purpose in this paper is to examine the arguments justified by paternalism and to suggest more precise criteria for invoking paternalism. We have identified two distinct types of situations where paternalistic restrictions are justified. In one case, a person is acting in a non-rational fashion, while in the other, a person is acting in a completely rational fashion. There are some stronger arguments against paternalism in the latter situation. However, we may regard paternalism as justified when a nation needs to protect or promote its basic "goods", such as health, which any reasonable individual would want to have, as Gerald Dworkin has suggested, except that some individuals clearly express their will to refuse their basic "goods". Therefore, we admit that fully rational individuals' decisions should be respected and that they should pursue their own good. However, we can allow authority's interference with an individual's choices as long as that interference is related to his/her basic "goods", such as life or health.

There has been a tremendous amount of research on the first vernacular novel of modern Chinese literature, A Madman's Diary. Taking as its focus the controversy regarding the image of the Madman and the writing methods of the novel among literary circles since the 1950s, and on the basis of the systematic combing and definition of Mikhail Bakhtin's theory of the polyphonic novel, this paper attempts to analyze the polyphonic characteristics of the novel and to discover the multiple factors in the formation of the polyphonic characters of Luxun's novel in particular. Defining A Madman's Diary as a polyphonic novel reveals the absence of the author's privileged position and the relative equality of status between the author and the protagonist, asserting that the real purpose of the novel is not to depict the character, but to show the contradictory relationship between the self-consciousness and the internal-dialog-like opposition. This kind of literary thinking would upset the traditional reading of the novel as one stamped with the author's opinions and would provide a new explanation of the novel. The theory of the polyphonic novel is still at a tentative stage, and is by no means without contention. In attempting to introduce the theory into the research of Luxun's works, I believe that it will become the new topic of modern Chinese literature research.

This paper focuses on the controversy over female circumcision in colonial Kenya and develops a critique of the dualist arguments put forward by feminist theorists concerning this practice. In the late 1920s Protestant missionaries, mainly of the Church of Scotland Mission, banned their followers from practicing female circumcision. The ban provoked strong resistance among local people, especially the Gikuyu. The resulting conflict, known as the "female circumcision controversy," helped give rise to "Gikuyu cultural nationalism" and had a significant impact on the Gikuyu movement for independence, called "Mau Mau." While the causes of the Gikuyu resistance have been much analyzed, the intention and function of the ban, which was assumed to be for protection of women's health, have been little examined. By examining the contemporary discourse of several contestants in the controversy, including Dr. Arthur, a predominant missionary in colonial Kenya, I show that the ban can be positioned, in the historical context, as significant part of the colonial project.

This paper describes various roles that Xiwangmu assumed in each historical era of China, referring to the descriptions of Xiwangmu and Nuhuo in the Chinese historiographies. Xiwangmu and Nuhuo were both revered as goddesses of hosts, and comparing these goddesses can give some insight into the relationship between the Central Dynasty and Western Regions to which Xiwangmu belonged, as well as the relationship between the Central Dynasty and the Chu Culture which Nuhuo was part of. Xiwangmu is repeatedly mentioned throughout all the twenty-five Chinese historiographies. This possibly proves that the figure of Xiwangmu had some degree of importance in the Central Dynasty and also gives an idea of how people in the era perceived Xiwangmu. Notably in Shiji and Hanshu documents, Xiwangmu is depicted taking multiple forms such as a queen of the West, goddess of longevity, and even as the name of a country. However, the uproar of the Xiwangmu religion in the "Emperor Ai" period of the Early Han was a turning point for Xiwangmu to gradually become recognized as a goddess of relief from death among the civilians. At the same time, it can be speculated that in the Central Dynasty, the conception of Xiwangmu as a guardian goddess of the Han Dynasty, which diverged from her role as the goddess of the Western Regions, started to prevail, consequently fully integrating Xiwangmu in the Han Dynasty. Here, however, there is a question of why Xiwangmu came to be viewed with such considerable importance. There appear to be two reasons for this. One reason is the conception of immortality typically associated with Xiwangmu. And the second reason is the existence value of Xiwangmu was elevated, replacing Nuhuo.
