Описание: In the 1980s, Japanese exports to the West became a matter of international concern. There were calls for the Japanese market to be `opened up` or for sanctions if Japan did not respond. This book, first published in 1989, examines the growth of protectionist sentiment and Japan`s response to it.

Описание: Traven`s analysis will provide IR theorists, international lawyers, and moral philosophers with a better understanding of why civilian immunity norms emerged and developed in modern international law. Furthermore, it will help them better understand why these norms fail to adequately protect civilians, and what can be done to improve them.
Описание: Drawing on recent research in moral psychology and neuroscience, this book argues that universal moral beliefs and emotions shaped the evolution of the laws of war, and in particular laws that protect civilians. It argues that civilian protection norms are not just a figment of the modern West, but that these norms were embryonic in earlier societies and civilizations, including Ancient China, early Islam, and medieval Europe. However, despite their ubiquity, this book argues that civilian protection rules are inherently fragile, and that their fragility lies not just in failures of compliance, but also in how moral emotions shaped the design of the law. The same beliefs and emotions that lead people to judge that it is wrong to intentionally target civilians can paradoxically constitute the basis for excusing states for incidental civilian casualties, or collateral damage. To make the laws of war work better for civilians, this book argues that we need to change how we think about the ethics of killing in war.
Описание: What is the role of affect in international criminal law and transitional justice in (post-)colonial Africa and beyond? Instead of accepting at face value the commonly held assumption that the law systematically neutralizes emotions, Jonas Bens argues that the law purposefully creates, mobilizes, shapes, and transforms atmospheres and sentiments.
Описание: This book offers a range of contemporary sociological reflections on new manifestations of religion, religiosity and spirituality in Central and Eastern Europe, a region that has seen significant social and political transformation.
Описание: This book provides insights into the experiences of `homelessness`, while exploring its psychological and socio-economic dimensions.

In A Discontented Diaspora, Jeffrey Lesser investigates broad questions of ethnicity, the nature of diasporic identity, and Brazilian culture. He does so by exploring particular experiences of young Japanese Brazilians who came of age in São Paulo during the 1960s and 1970s, an intensely authoritarian period of military rule. The most populous city in Brazil, São Paulo was also the world’s largest “Japanese” city outside of Japan by 1960. Believing that their own regional identity should be the national one, residents of São Paulo constantly discussed the relationship between Brazilianness and Japaneseness. As second-generation Nikkei (Brazilians of Japanese descent) moved from the agricultural countryside of their immigrant parents into various urban professions, they became the “best Brazilians” in terms of their ability to modernize the country and the “worst Brazilians” because they were believed to be the least likely to fulfill the cultural dream of whitening. Lesser analyzes how Nikkei both resisted and conformed to others’ perceptions of their identity as they struggled to define and claim their own ethnicity within São Paulo during the military dictatorship.
Lesser draws on a wide range of sources, including films, oral histories, wanted posters, advertisements, newspapers, photographs, police reports, government records, and diplomatic correspondence. He focuses on two particular cultural arenas—erotic cinema and political militancy—which highlight the ways that Japanese Brazilians imagined themselves to be Brazilian. As he explains, young Nikkei were sure that their participation in these two realms would be recognized for its Brazilianness. They were mistaken. Whether joining banned political movements, training as guerrilla fighters, or acting in erotic films, the subjects of A Discontented Diaspora militantly asserted their Brazilianness only to find that doing so reinforced their minority status.
