    Letter from Yoshiko Yoshida to Kikuye Nakatani. It encloses a picture of a memorial monument dedicated to the soldiers of the Japanese battleship, Yamato, including the ship anchor. Yoshiko writes about the calligraphy on the rock in the photo, which was drawn by her husband, Mitsuru Yoshida.The collection consists of documents, diaries, letters, books, calendars, newspapers, photographs, artifacts and audiovisual media pertaining to Kikuyo Morimoto Nakatani, a Japanese-born woman who lived in Isleton, California. During World War II, her family was incarcerated in the Minidoka and Tule Lake incarceration camps. After the war, she moved to Los Angeles and studied tea with Madame Sosei Matsumoto, and became a tea master acknowledged by the Urasenke Headquarters in Japan. The collection also contains letters from her son, Kunio, who served aboard the Yamato battleship for the Empire of Japan during World War II

    Includes bibliographical references and index."Dedicated to John B.

    Policy Duration Effect under Zero Interest Rates: An Application of Wavelet Analysis

    No full text
    A major feature of recent monetary policy in Japan has been heavy reliance on the so-called policy duration effect. This policy employs a commitment to compensate for the central bank’s inability to lower the interest rate below zero by altering the anticipated course of monetary policy actions. This paper analyzes the behavior of the yield curve and examines the effectiveness and limitations of monetary policy commitment under zero interest rates with four indicators for policy duration effect. Specifically, we extend our previous study (Okina and Shiratsuka (2003)) by applying wavelet analysis to indicators for policy duration effect. As in the previous study, the policy duration effect was found to be highly effective in stabilizing market expectations for the path of short-term interest rates, thereby reducing longer-term interest rates and flattening the yield curve. The policy duration effect, however, failed to reverse deflationary expectations in financial markets.zero interest rate policy, quantitative monetary easing, policy duration effects, policy commitment, wavelet analysis

    In seinen Lebenserinnerungen beschreibt Kurt Früh die Zusammenarbeit mit seinem Bruder Huldreich Georg mit Wärme und aufrichtiger Bewunderung: 1 Damit spricht der Theatermacher; Schriftsteller und Regisseur Früh eine Epoche der Volksbühne Zürich an - die 193Oer-Jahre -, die als ihr Höhepunkt bezeichnet werden kann.2 Nach einer Orientierungsphase, die wenig politisch bestimmt war und in der auch schwankhafte Stücke aufs Programm gesetzt wurden, entwickelte sich die Bühne ab 1932 zu einem Spielort des proletarischen Theaters mit Verbindung zum Schaffen Bertolt Brechts und mit starken Banden zur Sozialdemokratie. lmmer stärker wurde aber auch der Einfluss der Kommunistischen Partei der Schweiz, an deren Veranstaltungen die Volksbühne beteiligt war.+ ID: 589925 + Serientitel: Schriften der Eugen und Yoshida Früh-Stiftun

    Integrated urban flood design in the United States and the Netherlands

    No full text
    Spatial design integrates social, cultural, economic, and political perspectives with natural site conditions and man-made construction to plan for sustainable urban development. The current flood-risk-related challenges induced by climate change place pressure on designing cities in which both natural and man-made conditions can be imbalanced. Creating a purely engineered line of flood defense to restore this balance does not always work. The idea of living more closely with water includes the discipline of spatial design more into flood risk management than the current dominant paradigm. Following the probability approach defined as risk = probability × consequences, the current Dutch paradigm is focused on reducing the probability with dikes; the United States focuses on reduction of consequences by evacuation and recovery. This chapter focuses on urban design and planning strategies for reducing flood risk not just by a flood defense line such as a dike, but also reducing risk by means of urban development behind the dike. Integrated urban flood design must integrate site-built environment characteristics and natural systems, and simultaneously solve challenges posed by hazards. Effective design, therefore, must be conducted on the basis of hydraulic engineering knowledge, leading to spatial designs that introduce resilient urban qualities. Two cases for this approach are presented and compared: Vlissingen, the Netherlands and Galveston, Texas, United States.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Environmental Technology and DesignSpatial Planning and Strateg

    Research Note: The Organization and Utilization of Archives Related to Postwar Japanese Art– UCLA Library's Yoshida Yoshie Collection as Example

    No full text
    The author took the opportunity to observe the archive-related institutions at University of California (UCLA) while attending the “Engaged Critic, Radical Art: Yoshida Yoshie in Art and Performance” symposium, held at UCLA on February 20, 2018 to commemorate the gift of the materials donated by the art critic Yoshida Yoshie (1929-2016). As more and more of those who played important roles in Japan's postwar art have died, frequently their archives have been received by public institutions. On the other hand, those involved in the arts and their descendants have often turned not to Japanese institutions, but rather to overseas institutions with more experience in handling archives and offering more opportunities for their utilization, when they decide on donations and transfers of archives. One of the biggest reasons for such decisions is the fact that Japan has yet to create a fully functional system whereby archives related to modern and contemporary art can be received and utilized as research materials. For this reason, the author set out to personally experience the practices of overseas institutions that are leaders in the field and then reflect on those findings in this project. This article is a report on the UCLA Library's Yoshida Yoshie Papers. The efforts of those involved meant that the materials were not scattered prior to their receipt by the UCLA Library and other appropriate institutions. I further confirmed the entire scale of the Yoshida Yoshie Papers, based on the currently publicly available information and my own observations. This article presents the methods used at the UCLA Library, specifically how they described their archival materials in the finding aid which utilizes ISAD(G) and how information is presented on their website.journal articl
