On the Time of Shuo-wen Zhouwen : Analyzing the Inscription of Ma-ding
Get PDFapplication/pdfJournal ArticleShuo-wen jie-zi 説文解字, compiled by Xu-Shen 許愼 in A.D.100, is one of the immortal masterpieces of scholarship of ancient China. "Zhou-wen"籀文 characters and "Gu-wen"古文 characters which were preserved in Shuo-wen jie-zi 説文解字 are quite important materials to survey of Chinese characters’ archaic forms. Shi-zhou 史籀 is regarded as the compiler of Shi-zhou-pian 史籀篇 from which ""Zhou-wen"" 籀文 characters were derived and his name written as 史留 appears in the inscription on the Ma-ding 鼎, a newly unearthed Western Zhou bronze. This article analyzed Ma-ding 鼎 with special emphasis on the function of 史留 in the Western Zhou Royal Court. Examining this bronze inscription of the last years of Western Zhou, it proves that Shi-Zhou 史籀 actually existed as a technocrat during the time of Xuan-Wang 宣王 and that the orthography of bronze inscriptions was established by those bureaucrats through this era.journal articl
The Price of EU Membership: Implications of the Stabilisation and Association Agreement to Bosnia and Herzegovina's Policy Reform
Get PDFapplication/pdfJournal ArticleThe development of EU accession processes in the Western Balkan states would alter Bosnia's reluctance to pursue tough reforms, otherwise the economy loses a good chance to achieve sustainable development, if not to survive. As the neighbouring countries' EU accessions become a matter of reality and hence EU boundary will emerge just in front of Bosnia, the time is running out to let the Bosnian exports comply with various EU standards. This is not a mere technical issue in trade facilitation, but has significant implications to domestic political process. However, there is a risk of moral hazard in Bosnia to pursue reforms. To avoid the risk of 'waiting game' between Brussels and Sarajevo, a more proactive interventionist approach may want to be considered for the EU.journal articl

A REGIONAL SUCCESSION THEORY UTILIZING KNOWLEDGE FROM THE FIELDS OF GENETICS AND BRAIN SCIENCE(New Frontiers of Theory on Character of Place and Local Inheritance Spatial System in Architecture and Urbanism)
Get PDFapplication/pdfJournal ArticleThe concept of a region is exists in our consciousness. As such, and considering the current regional collapse phenomenon, it is necessary to develop new regional succession theories that appeal to our consciousness. This paper proposes the possibility of developing more complete regional succession theories by combining knowledge from the fields of genetics and brain science with traditional physical and economic methods. Specifically, the concepts of "body plan" and "immune treatment" techniques from genetics, and "art therapy", "psychological first aid" and "reminiscence therapy" adapted from psychotherapy may suggest new avenues for the development of regional succession theories.journal articl
