In Japan, two cervical cancer vaccines were approved and implemented in 2009. The severe adverse drug reaction (ADR) of these vaccines, however, was later recognized, and consequently Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare stopped recommending them in 2013. Using the concept of Ulrich Beck’s ‘sub-politics’, this paper argues that in promoting the vaccines the pharmaceutical industry as sub-political power, failed to provide the health benefit of reducing the risk of cervical cancer, but succeeded in achieving an economic benefit for itself. Due to its highly academic nature, the sub-politics of pharmaceutical industry has constructed a power that affects the government’s decisions on new drugs. Moreover, the pharmaceutical sub-politics evaded any responsibility for the ADR of cervical cancer vaccines because of the risk-free environment that it had created for itself. Overall this paper contends that the pharmaceutical sub-political power is unaccountable and profit-oriented.

This paper is a survey of how the town of Washimiya became the "sacred place" for anime fans ever since fans from all around the country rushed to visit the town after it was used as a setting for the animation "Lucky Star", leading also to the town successfully holding two events for these fans. The following three points were discussed. 1)The process leading up to the town becoming a "sacred place". 2)The process leading up to the town welcoming tourists. 3)The roles of tourist related corporations outside the town. As a result, it was found that in each process the local commerce and industry association played a central role. It was also found that with the town's commerce and industry association at the core, a local shrine, local shops, fans, and corporations from outside the region (copyright owners and a tourist agency) were able to build a relationship of mutual benefit as a backdrop to the current success.

Soon after two cervical cancer vaccines were introduced in 2009 in Japan, their severe adverse drug reactions (ADR) were recognized, which put the vaccines' safety and efficacy in question. Using the concept of Ulrich Beck's ‘individualization’, this paper examines the decision-making process of those who chose these vaccines and suffered from severe ADR. It also looks at how they took responsibility for their choices, revealing the fact that the sufferers of ADR were surrounded by aggressive marketing campaigns and vaccine support organizations, economic measures such as free inoculations, and the powerful effects of intermediate groups (school, family, local community and so on). This paper argues that the choice of these vaccines showed that individualization in Japan is uneven because of a gap between subjective individualization and objective individualization, which makes individual decision making difficult.

This paper aims to analyze reports on keikan in the Yomiuri Shimbun and the Asahi Shimbun, and shed light on how the discourse of keikan changed from the 1870s to the 1910s. Keikan means anal sex primarily between males and was illegal in Japan from 1872 to 1881. The word first appeared in the two newspapers in the 1870s and disappeared in the 1910s. In these forty years, two periods are identified through the distinct patterns that the newspapers showed: 1875-1901 and 1905-1914. In the first period, keikan was associated with violence, crime, and intimate relationships. In the second period, keikan was described as “a problem of delinquent students”, and was counted as one of their wrongdoings. The change of discourse is explained by the characteristics of the newspapers, and the multilayered nature of discourse.

This paper examines the transnational space of popular culture and cultural identities in Korea that formed in the process of the public acceptance of Japanese Animation (Anime), one of few fields officially allowed in the postwar period during which Japanese popular culture was forbidden. Particularly, in analyzing anime-songs aired in Korea between the 1960s and the 2000s and in observing the process of their historical evolvement, critical points for arguing the flow of popular culture between Japan and Korea as it relates to media culture and identity emerge. The research first reconstitutes the cultural relationship between postwar Japan and Korea, as reflected in the acceptance of Anime and historic changes in South Korean identities in the above period, according to the ideal type “Anime-Song Community.” Then, the research employs a comprehensive approach incorporating diverse perspectives of industrial and historical content flow, consumption, and identity to examine the way in which media practice constitutes that field. By thus considering from an overall perspective what kind of socio-cultural dynamics are revealed through changes in the style of acceptance of “Anime-Songs” shared between both countries, we should be able to comprehend the transition of cultural identity amidst young Korean generations.

In the post-industrial world creativity becomes more and more important: Richard Florida points out the dawn of the "creative economy"; furthermore, Joseph Pine II and James Gilmore point out that every business should be as original as a drama, if it wants to avoid being involved in a price competition. Do all these mean that the idea of an avant-garde artist, "Everyone is an artist," has in twenty years finally been realized in the practical world such as in economy and management? In this interdisciplinary study I try to answer this question, which also contributes to reevaluation and actualization of Beuys' thought. The focus of the matter is his definition of creativity as a liberating force which encourages us to determine ourselves and codetermine the society. Based on this definition "creative economy" can't to be truly creative as long as profit making incentive on the managing side has more priority than the pursuit of quality and self-realization of the workers.

This research will demonstrate how animals were seen as spectacles in the Edo period and continue to influence today's modern zoos. Zoos have four main purposes: conservation, education, science and recreation. Interestingly, little attention has been given to the function of zoos as places of ‘recreation.’ The recent, growing trend has been concerned with the effects of education on visitors. In order to thoroughly understand the aspects of ‘recreation,’ this paper will focus on the spectacle side of animal attraction. This investigation considers that even before the establishment of the first Japanese zoo, people have enjoyed animal recreation. Accordingly, I hope to present fundamental ideas in support of how these recreational elements remain embedded in modern Japanese zoos. I will do this by referring to academic articles, newspapers and magazines.

Recently, various genres of Japanese animations are popular worldwide. Especially, so called Home Anime which describes everyday life in Japan is widely accepted in East Asia. Although their stories are based on Japanese settings, which are often unfamiliar to the foreign audience, Home Animes such as Sazae-san, Crayon Shin-chan and Chibi Maruko-chan enjoy great popularity in Asia, especially in China and South Korea. The paper clarifies the reason behind the popularity of this kind of animations, focusing on the image of family through literature review, text analyzing and questionnaire survey of Chibi Maruko-chan.

This paper discussed the triangular relationship between mass media, power of authorities, and the audience. After summarizing the concepts of the above three, this paper attempted to analyze these three actors' power structures and build a convincing theoretical framework. This paper mainly adopted Niklas Luhmann's viewpoint of power communication as a theoretical foundation, since it provided a unique perspective to understand the essence of power. Subsequently, this paper divided the power structure into six directions to explain how the power relations work between these three actors. The theoretical results obtained in this paper are expected to contribute to future case studies.

Nowtopians are inventors and improvisational spirits who bring an artistic approach to important tasks that are ignored or undervalued by market society. Their exploration of work locates an important thread of self-emancipatory class politics beyond the traditional arena of wage-labor in capitalism.

Narcotic opioids, which have been prescribed as painkillers, have become so prevalent across the U.S. that today deaths from their abuse surpass traffic deaths. In 2017, President Donald Trump declared a public health emergency as the “opioid crisis” over the spike in deaths from opioid abuse, including overdose. This issue has developed into a major social problem since the 1990s due to a combination of factors. In this paper, the author analyzes the development of the opioid abuse epidemic in the U.S. — how it broke out, expanded, was responded to, re-expanded and was eventually recognized as a national crisis — using a risk colonization framework based on societal and institutional risks. The paper aims to understand the process of expansion and its contributing factors in a more objective and comparable way.

The aim of this article is to reconsider the relation between bios (the cultural and social life) and zoe (the biological life), dealing with the political thoughts of Antonio Gramsci. As is well known, his major interest is the cultural power ruling in the civil society. The notion of "hegemony" has had a great influence over the social sciences of the 20th century. But he also devotes a large part of the Prison Notebooks to researching the changes of the biological life in the industrial society (drinking, sexual instinct, etc.). I will reexamine the relation between these two major regions of his thoughts as a form of "individualization".

Gutenberg's invention of printing produced not only printed books, but also other forms of print, such as the street literature. Particularly broadsheets, printed mainly in several free cities of Nurnberg, Augsburg, Strasbourg, Frankfurt and so on, reported various political, economic and social events. These sorts of print are named “Neue Zeitungen” (news reports/news). Some researchers consider them as one origin of the newspaper. Certainly the “Neue Zeitungen” possessed features such as actuality and continuity, but not periodicity. The 16th and the 17th Century witnessed the flowering of illustrated broadsheets in the Holy Roman Empire, later to be exported to England and France. Broadsheets acquired a wide range of social groups as their audience because of their low price, the engraving technology, and the phenomenon of traveling dealers. Anonymous production and sales networks permitted occasionally prohibited subject matter and made the broadsheets attractive as a print medium. This arrangement is reminiscent of that of the yellow journalism in contrast to so-called quality papers. Concision of text in the broadsheets and their quick production could also be compared to “twitter” in the internet era.

Twenty-six years have passed since the drafting of the bill to introduce the selective married couple surname system, but there is still no consensus on its introduction. In order to explore the reasons for this lack of consensus in the debate, this paper uses the theory of deliberative systems to analyze and evaluate the discourse of media, citizens, political parties, judiciary, and administrative sites. As a result, it emerged that besides partisan conflict, the structure of the debate and the fact that it is a minority issue maybe the impediments to consensus on the selective married couple surname system.

Since 1990s, the EU countries which have accepted many immigrants from the third-countries force the immigrants to acquire their national language. Norway, which is not the member of the EU, also approved the legislation which virtually obliges immigrants to learn Norwegian in 2006. This paper analyzes the reason why Norway, which has been considered one of the most liberal states towards immigrants, shifted her language policy towards immigrants by utilizing Esping-Andersen's concept, ‘the Welfare Regimes’. I conclude that the “Social Democratic Regime” itself required the transition of the policy. This is because language is a vital means to integrate immigrants into the labour market without their commodification and stratification.

Nowadays civil society in Japan is in the midst of a great transformation at a time when 'publicness', which used to belong to the authorities, should now involve those whom are concerned with administrative and fiscal reforms. Consequently, people in local communities have growing commitments to participate in policymaking directly, in a so-called 'partnership'. Furthermore, there is a growing interest in how the authorities should reform their environmental, welfare, and urban development policies at the regional level. It is certain that decision-making should depend on how well the residents of the local district facilitate consensus-building efforts among themselves. Prior to accomplishing agreement, mutual understanding is called for by means of communication in the local community. This is the reason why I discuss the theoretical possibilities of the Chonaikai (neighborhood association) within the framework of civil public sphere (Harbermas 1973), that is described as a communication space in order to present an ideal model of the Chonaikai. I argue that the ideal model should be considered as a voluntary association, in which the people establish agendas relevant to self-evident 'living', some of which might result in the raising of political issues in civil society by means of intersubjective communication.
