The aim of this paper is to analyze President George H. W. Bush's efforts to solve the dispute over SNF (Short-range Nuclear Forces) modernization within the Western alliance early in 1989. Recently, many works on the end of the Cold War have been published, based on newly declassified documents. These studies, focusing on thespecific year "1989", aim to explain the international political process of German unification. Yet, many Cold War scholars don't pay enough attention to the details and impact of the SNF issue. To appreciate the process of the Cold War's demise, I think we have to revisit the SNF issue within NATO that occurred in early 1989, and which had a strong influence on the 41st President's administration. In this paper, I will investigate the political process of the SNF modernization dispute from the perspective of U.S. foreign policy, using some primary sources located at George Bush Presidential Library and Museum ( Collage Station, Texas). This paper will show that the administration struggled to relieve the strained situation over SNF modernization within the Western alliance and held a NATO summit successfully in May 1989.

Three cases have been analyzed regarding the treatment of personal information by the local government after the Great East Japan Earthquake. By doing so, it became clear that whether or not the local government succeeds in its personal information policy depends on whether they have "Disaster Prevention Legal Literacy." In the draft revision of the Disaster Countermeasure Basic Act of June 2013 which included the lessons taught by the Great East Japan Earthquake, there was a large revision regarding the treatment of personal information at times of disaster. The revision further encouraged the local government to create its individual policy regarding the treatment of personal information. It has become more and more important for the local government to have "Disaster Prevention Legal Literacy." The "Disaster Recovery ad Revitalization Law" that started at Keio University and Chuo University is a lecture program to develop "Disaster Prevention Legal Literacy." It is desired that the lecture program be used in other universities and local communities.
