Japanese view on nature is closely related to the forests in Japan. Without a doubt Japanese mentality and religions (above all, Shinto and Buddhism) are influenced by the forest. Many thinkers, for example Takeshi UMEHARA and Yoshinori YASUDA, have already pointed out this relationship. It is essential for todays environmental ethics to overcome the Cartesian view. Therefore a new idea of nature is in need, which is meant to show a way, how humans and nature can coexist. Looking at Japanese view on nature, is it possible to find an answer to the question of how this coexistence can be accomplished in harmony? Hayao MIYAZAKI's masterpiece "Princess Mononoke" questions the optimistic opinion about the coexistence supposed to be offered by the Japanese attitude. The movie deals with a tragic conflict between human beings and nature, in which neither hero nor villain appears and where no line can be drawn between god and evil. By that Miyazaki suggests the destiny of every living being: One lives at the cost of the other. Such violence is as inherent in nature as in human beings. Unfortunately in Japan this subject has not often been pointed out yet. By a philosophical interpretation of the movie this article examines the problems of the Japanese view on nature.

On March 2, 2005, the United States District Court Nothern District of California gave an epochmaking decision. The decision held: in light of the many similarities between the lists generated by the Japanese Law for the Protection of Cultural Properties and the U.S. National Historic Preservation Act ("NHPA"), the Japanese Law is an "equivalent of the National Register" under the NHPA within the meaning of section 470a-2 thereof; since the Okinawa dugong is protected under Japanese Law on the basis of its cultural significance to the Okinawan people, section 470a-2 of the NHPA can apply to the Okinawa dugong, an animal protected for cultural, historical reasons under a foreign country's equivalent statutory scheme for cultural preservation; while section 470a-2 applies to "any federal undertaking outside the United States", it can as a matter of law apply to the undertakings alleged by plaintiffs in that case because plaintiffs have alleged and provided evidence to show that the contested actions and decisions were undertaken by the U.S. Department of Defense and thus constitute a federal undertaking which may directly and adversely affect a property, the Okinawa dugong; since the case at issue deals with a statute, unlike the NEPA, explicitly demonstrates Congress's intent that it apply abroad where a federal undertaking promises to have direct or adverse effects on protected foreign properties, the cort must construe section 470a-2 in accordance with the statutory text-to preclude enforcement as a blanket rule based on the act of state doctrine would empty section 470 of any meaning; since the record before the court does not currently describe an "official act of a foreign sovereign perfomed within its own territory," but rather a process intertwined with U.S. Department of Defense decision-making, the court evaluates the actions of a federal agency for the act of state doctrine not being implicated. This decison is extremely significant mainly for the Okinawa dugong protection and U.S. military facilities issues here in the future.

The purpose of this paper is to review preceding literatures on the relationship between budget deficits, government debt, and interest rates. The knowledge from this survey is as follows: (1) After the seminal paper of Plosser (1982), we have many literatures on this topic. (2) All of the recent studies care for the expectation about future budgetary situation by using either event studies or published forecasts as a proxy of the market expectations. (3) Almost all of recent studies are on US economy, and we have only two literatures on Japanese economy; Nakazato et al. (2003) and Fukuda and Ji (2002). (4) Unfortunately, these two studies do not seem to utilize the knowledge since Plosser (1982).

The purpose of this study was two-fold. The first was to examine job awareness among care managers and how they evaluate .themselves according to the theoretical knowledge and practical skills demanded of them. Secondly we looked at care managers from different backgrounds in terms of qualifications, such as nursing or care workers to see if there was a difference in job awareness and their focus regarding theoretical knowledge and practical skills. This research was based on answers to questionnaires sent 404 care managers who had been trained in Tohoku region. The content and analysis of the questionnaires was the same as that used by Watanabe (2002). As a result of the survey three points became clear. The first was that care managers were aware of need for a high level of technical skill but that the level of understanding on the part of the client was low. Secondly, there were very clear areas of expertise in which care managers were either very confident or, on the other hand, not confident at all. Thirdly, nurses evaluated themselves more highly according to theoretical knowledge and practical skills than care workers did. However, in the areas of interview, client strengths and client serf-determination there were no differences.

The Taipei 228 Memorial Museum was originally a radio station called the " Taipei Broadcasting Corporation" in prewar times. During the 228 Incident, civilians occupied this building and used it to broadcast rallying cries around Taiwan. I visited this museum in September 2012 on unrelated research. There, I noticed a Chuo University cap on display. What relationship did Chuo University have with the 228 Incident? Actually, among those who were executed or went missing during the 228 Incident, there were many Taiwanese elites who had studied at Japanese universities. People who had studied at not only Chuo University but also the University of Tokyo,Waseda University, Nihon University, and other universities, and became lawyers and doctors on their return to Taiwan, were executed as dissidents who were deemed to have been poisoned by Japanese imperialistic education. After seeing the cap, me and my students started the project, the "228 Incident in Taiwan and the Chuo Graduates"; we gathered testimonies from eight victims' families. This article outlines the testimonies and shows the attitudinal changes of students who engaged in the project. Almost all of the students acquired new perspectives on Japanese–Taiwanese historical issues and meanings and agree that there is a good reason why most Taiwanese are pro-Japanese.

In Japan, the term ikumen refers to fathers who proactively participate in childcare. In recent years, the term has experienced a surge in popularity and was picked up by political bodies, private bodies and the media. In this paper, we inquire into newspapers' depiction of ikumen, looking into the central terms and topics of newspaper reporting on the involved fathers. Based on an analysis of headlines of newspaper articles published between January 2008 and June 2015 with the text mining software KH Coder, this paper serves as an introductory article to the terms and topics that come up when discussing ikumen in Japanese society. We fi nd that newspaper discussions of ikumen touch upon several fields, namely family and childcare, employment, support and initiatives and society and politics. We also identify hints suggesting that ikumen is perceived as an emotional-affective approach to fatherhood.

The paper considers the origin of dynamism in Islamic Law by examining the formation process of madhhabs (of legal schools) with a special reference to Wael B. Hallaq's Authority, Continuity, and Change in Islamic Law (2001). This text examines the doctrines and practices of madhhabs within the historical context, and shows how madhhab functioned effectively in the Islamic world before the Shariá (Islamic law) system was integrated into the modern nationstate system. The paper explains the role and the qualifications of the muftī (jurisconsult) and the musannif (authorjurist) to better illustrate the structural diversity of madhhab, focusing on the legal practices such as ijtihād, takhrīj, tarjīh, and tasnīf. In Hallaq's study, the plurality and diversity of madhhabs is considered as an important factor for both continuity and change in Islamic law, and its epistemological aspects are primarily explained. This paper further explains the ontological aspects of madhhab from the Islamic worldview, tawhīd, Showing that the dynamism in Islamic law that stems from the diversity is an exact reflection of existential relationships based on tawhhīd.

This paper expounds the idea that a socio-economic order is a spontaneous and abstract order of productive activities, conjoining it with the Aristotelean notion that the essence of human existence consists in living a spontaneous life of activities for the fulfillment of its ultimate end. The spontaneity of the former is grounded in that of the latter, but human existence as a life of activities has no real value without a socio-economic order in which this life unfolds. Arguing that this order, if it is to persist and thrive, must be founded on moral principles, this paper scrutinizes the metaphysical foundations of moral laws and principles through an exegesis of Kant's moral philosophy (i.e., his notions of absolutely good will, autonomy, freedom, moral laws, and the kindgom of ends), and relating it to Aristotle's concept of entelecheia as the ultimate end of human existence. Kant's moral philosophy is founded on human existence rooted in the world of senses dictated by natural necessity as well as in the world of understanding governed by moral necessity. The moral necessity requires that human will to choose on actions must be determined autonomously by rational principles in accordance with the universal laws legislated by reason alone. This philosophy accords with Aristotle's metaphysics and ethics that the essence of the life of rational beings is to live a virtuous life of activities in accordance with rational principles and that this life requires that non-rational beings exist as resources for activities. Thus, Kant's metaphysics of universal moral laws as the categorical imperatives of human actions and Aristotle's ethics of virtuous living guided by phronesis (practical wisdom) are united to provide the moral and ethical cause of a socio-economic order in which humans as rational beings interact, unfold, and fulfill their lives of activities.

This paper aims to explore the feasibility of establishing British health and social care systems for elderly people in Japan. Four main British health and social care systems, drawn from Dr. Evan's paper, were analyzed based on six criteria : 1) system's role, 2) location of responsibility in each system, 3) key concepts of each system, 4) needs of each system in Japan 5) necessary conditions for applying each system if applied in Japan, 6) obstacles to applying each system in Japan. Owing to the author's background, social/psychological influences on each system were enphasized and examples of American health/social care systems were used.
