It is generally thought that large companies have a more powerful influence on policy making than citizens’ groups in contemporary Japan. In 2006, however, it was decided that the maximum interest rate should be lowered, which the groups aiding victims of consumer lending asked for but which the consumer loan companies strongly opposed. How did ‘weak’ citizens’ groups win against ‘strong’ large firms? Through analyzing this case, this article examines the political influence of large corporations and citizens’ groups.   This article is organized as follows. To begin with, it traces the history of regulations on the maximum interest rate. Next, it depicts the political process of abolishing the ‘gray-zone’ interest rates in 2006. Finally, it examines the resources of the consumer loan companies and the success factors of the groups aiding victims of consumer lending by comparing this case with the case of ‘defective cars problem’ analyzed by Hideo Otake.

青森県むつ市関根浜に露出する完新世堆積物から多数の軽石(SKN-1~6)を見出した.このうち2層の軽石濃集層(SKN-2とSKN-3)は,それぞれ鬱陵島U-2テフラ(U-2)と十和田中掫テフラ(To-Cu)の軽石で構成されていた.SKN-2とSKN-3は層相と層序,軽石の粒径・形状から,海域での漂流を経て堆積した漂着軽石と考えられる.また,SKN-2とSKN-3は,有機質シルト・泥炭層中に存在することと約6 kaの海水準や地形を考慮すると,海と繋がる小河川を経て潟湖に漂着したものと推測される.加えて,水平方向に連続的に堆積する様相は堆積当時の汀線付近に多数の軽石が分布していたことを示唆する.

Negative stereotypes of mental illness have many kinds of undesirable effects on patients. Existing research has mainly investigated stereotypes of “mental illness” as a general term that covers various kinds of illnesses. While there might be differences among the stereotypes of different specific illnesses, this issue has not been fully focused on in Japan. In the current study, we used the Stereotype Content Model to visualize the stereotype of eight mental illnesses and “mental illness (general term).” The result showed that each mental illness is characterized by distinct stereotype patterns, with differences in associations between competence/warmth and various cognitive aspects (e.g., responsibility, dangerousness, and seriousness) being observed, depending on the mental illness. We discuss the cause of differences in stereotypes for each mental illness and suggest the importance of investigating specific stereotypes in future research.

COVID-19パンデミックにより,がん検診は世界的に停滞した.わが国においても第1回緊急事態宣言の発令に合わせて多くの施設でがん検診が中断され,受診者数は1~2割程度減少したとされているが,正確な数字は把握できていない.一方海外では,元々検診受診者の情報が個別に管理されており,パンデミック下での受診者数の減少や精密検査のキャパシティー低下などのデータを迅速かつ正確に把握し,それをシミュレーションモデルを用いて解析することによって,根拠のある対応策を打ち出している.2020年の院内がん登録の集計結果からも,検診で発見された大腸がん患者数は減少しており,また発見がんも早期の割合が減少していた.このことが長期的にどのような影響を及ぼすのか,それを防ぐにはどのような対策を講じるべきなのかを議論する上で,国レベルで全国民のデータ集積を行う体制作りが急務である.

Hydaticus grammicus (Germer, 1827) (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) is a common diving beetle with a body length of 9.0–11.0 mm and yellowish brown with vertical stripes on their elytra. We found an unidentified beetle resembling H. rhantoides Sharp, 1882 because of dark brown on its body color in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan. Based on the phylogenetic analysis using mitochondrial COI gene sequences (646 bp), we concluded that the unidentified beetle is a color variation of H. grammicus (no stripe type). This color variation with no stripe is the first report of this species.

Lithium is widely used in industry products such as pottery or glass additives, glass flux for continuous casting of steel, grease, medicine, battery. In particular, since lithium ion batteries, which are secondary batteries, have high energy density and high voltage, recent applications have expanded as batteries for electronic devices such as laptop computers, as automotive batteries for electric vehicles or hybrid vehicles. Therefore, demand for lithium is rapidly increasing. However, in the recovery of lithium from a salt lake, brine containing many impurities such as sulfate and magnesium ions are not effectively utilized because solar evaporation cannot be used. We developed the λ-MnO2 adsorbent in order to selectively recover lithium from such brine. In this study, we investigated the adsorption characteristics such as adsorption capacity, adsorption rate and selectivity of lithium by batch mixing and column test using simulated brine. The adsorbent prepared by hydrometallurgical process had higher adsorption capacity and rate of lithium than the adsorbent prepared by pyrometallurgical process.

CPR was performed on a cardiac arrest victim who had received a kick to the side. We succeeded in reviving the victim after more than two-and-a-half hours of closed-chest cardiac massage (CCCM). One factor in success of CPR is initiation of CPR immediately after cardiac arrest. Other factors are early administration of oxygen and a young patient. It is thought that the reason the CPR took so long to succeed despite having been initiated immediately after arrest was because CCCM inside the ambulance proved to be ineffective. A CCCM machine (thumper) is essential for performance of in-ambulance CCCM. It is difficult to decide when to stop CPR in emergency situations where there is a lack of diagnostic equipment for vital signs.

「福島民報」と「福島民友」は、ともに社内には原発専門家はいないので、社外の原発推進派の技術者に依存し、「安全神話」の普及に貢献している。海外の「原発事故」に対して「我が国では起こりえない事故」と断じている。読売と朝日の記事を比較すると、前者は終始一貫し「原発」推進派であり、「先導」者であった。後者は、原発に関してはその拙速を批判するものの動揺する「容認」派であった。福島の「原発事故」に関する、日仏メディアを比べると、「メルトダウン問題」を仏は迅速に伝え、日本は隠蔽した。仏は「情報源の多様性」を保持し、米軍からの情報も報道している。福島の「原発事故」の深刻度でも仏は事故後すぐ報道している。

Recently, identity politics have been questioned as a politic of human rights for social minorities. They, who question point out the followings:1) the strategy makes a group monolithic under the only"identity", thus excludes and marginalizes those who do not live according to the norms of the group, and2) treat an identity as a typical one while in reality each individual has various identities in her/himself. In spite of these questions against identity politics, some scholars and activists have kept maintaining identity politics as a useful strategy for minorities, because there are people who are stigmatized by their identities and excluded from the society. This paper looks at lesbian and gay activism in the United Church of Canada as a case, considering the question against identity politics as mentioned above and analyses its limitations and potentialities. In cases of Christian churches, most lesbian and gay activisms have maintained to "accept"themselves to be minorities in the society. However such a strategy can not change the norms of majorities and brings divisions among minorities as a result:1)"acceptable""good people and 2)"not acceptable""deviant"people. To overcoming this limitation, this paper examines an alternative way to find a new horizon for minorities.

木杭は,明治以来,鉄道においても高架橋や駅設備の基礎杭として利用されてきた.木杭は,地下水位以深に位置する,または地下水位変動があったとしても粘性土に覆われていれば,著しい腐朽をすることなく耐久性を有する点,木杭の耐久性や強度は樹種や産地によって異なることが知られている.本点を確認するため,東京駅丸の内駅舎の保存・復原工事で撤去された松杭の状況と地質,地下水位を調べた.その結果,杭頭部から約500mmの範囲を除いて,長期間,木杭が地下水位以浅にあっても,地表部に粘性土層があり,一定の含水比を有する砂質土に打設されていれば著しい腐朽が発生しなかった点が確認された.また,東京駅丸の内駅舎に使用された木杭の樹種,産地について,当時の建設記録や考察から「甲地松」である可能性が高いことをつきとめた.

Focusing on two classes of as well as their teachers of three-year-old children as well as their teachers in a kindergarten, this research, which was held between April to October 2005, investigates how gender consciousness among children are related to their social relationships with teachers are peer groups. The research finds out that a majority of the children did not have any gender identity before entering the kindergarten, and there is no clear evidence to show that sex or date of birth are related to the time when children identity their gender. However, before entering the summer vacation at July, most of the children already have clear gender consciousness. The research then shows that children will recognize their gender identity earlier if they prefer playing within a group and communicating more with teachers. On the contrary, for those children who prefer to play alone or to keep a distance from teachers, they will identity their gender later. In addition, for those children who always stick to teacher but prefer to play alone, they still have earlier gender consciousness.
