TOKYO – Japan is cheap. Yes, you read that right. This may surprise – or astonish – those familiar with the country’s high value-added brands, its “bubble era” or Japanese land prices – touted as among the most expensive in the world. It certainly flies in the face of conventional wisdom. But decades of stagnant wages, deflation and the gut-punch left by Abenomics have left Japan the Daiso of the
令和２年度日米共同方面隊指揮所演習（日本）（ＹＳ－７９）が今まさに行われているところである。この演習を始めとして、日米共同訓練も年々回数と内容共に充実しつつあるように感じる。令和2年度の防衛白書にも「平素から共同訓練を行うことは、戦術面などの相互理解や意思疎通といった相互運用性を向上させ、日米共同対処能力の維持・向上に大きく資するのみならず、日米それぞれの戦術技量の向上を図るうえでも有益である」との記述のある通りである。 しかし、真に効果あるものにするためには、日米間に横たわる違いを理解し、乗り越えるべきものは乗り越えていかねばならないのであろう。 ここで紹介するのは、米軍の機関誌に記載されていた米軍将校（海兵隊）の記事の抜粋である。米軍内へ陸上自衛隊がどのように違うかを理解せよとの提言であるが、自衛官側も米軍のことを理解しているようで理解できていないところを明確にしなければならないのでは
Japan disabled challenge stigma, barriers to run for upper house seat
TOKYO (Reuters) - Eiko Kimura, who has cerebral palsy, did not even know how to buy train tickets when she chose to move out of a facility for the disabled and live in a Tokyo suburb at 19. She kept her head down to avoid rude stares from strangers then.

The Guardian view on the Tokyo Olympics: must the show go on?
As coronavirus swept the globe last spring, Japan portrayed the postponement of the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics until this summer as an opportunity as well as a necessity. The delayed Games would be the light at the end of the tunnel; a celebration of humanity’s victory over Covid. With around 100 days to go, that promise now looks not merely optimistic, but flat wrong. The Olympics are approac

Political WarfareとInfluence Operation : 細谷雄一の研究室から
2020年08月20日 Political WarfareとInfluence Operation 少し前に「影響力工作」についてのブログの記事を書いたのですが、それについて一部の方からかなり激しい反発と批判を頂いており、少しばかり驚いています。「そのようなものはない」あるいは「デマを流している」というような批判が多いのですが、これは裏返せば、日本国内ではpolitical warfareやinfluence operationについて、おそらく安全保障専門家外ではほとんど知られていないということなのだろうと感じております。 私はこの分野の専門家ではなく、あくまでも下記のような文献や報告書から学んだり、あるいは国際会議に参加してアジアの安全保障などをディスカッションする中で、食事の席や休憩時間などに、外交官、軍関係者、そして一部インテリジェンス関係者の方、そして安全保障専門家の方などと意見

The long-term association between paternal involvement in infant care and children's psychological well-being at age 16 years: An analysis of the Japanese Longitudinal Survey of Newborns in the 21st Century 2001 cohort
BackgroundSome studies conducted in the United Kingdom have shown long-term associations between paternal involvement in childcare and adolescents' mental health issues. However, findings were inconsistent, and similar epidemiologic studies have not been conducted in other countries in Europe or Asia. Thus, we aimed to examine this association using Japanese population-based cohort study data. Met

Time to Give Japan Credit for its COVID-19 Response – Tokyo Review
While other nations are praised for controlling the virus, Japan’s low COVID-19 death toll is often treated as a mystery at best, or even as a conspiracy. With the COVID-19 pandemic still ongoing and a strong likelihood of future waves of outbreaks, it’s much too early to start talking about national “winners and losers,” apart from the most extreme cases. This is doubly true since there’s still m
PDCA日記 / Diary Vol. 53「ホテル大蔵と消費税」/ "Ministry of Finance & Consumption Tax" - PDCA日記 / PDCA Diary
English follows Japanese. 【PDCA日記 Vol. 53「ホテル大蔵と消費税」】 私は銀行員時代、当局対応を5年程度していたことがあり、日本の中央官庁が集まっている霞が関（虎ノ門）に毎週のように行っては、窓のない部屋（！）で色々な協議を行っていました。 日本の場合、銀行は金融庁、クレジットカードは経済産業省、貸金業務は財務局という感じで、同じ金融でも業種によって監督官庁が異なるという特徴があります。 アメリカやヨーロッパでも金融当局の窓口が分かりにくいのは同じであり、外国人の元同僚は「日本はまだまし」というくらいで、どの国でもややこしいのは同じようです。 今回紹介する資料「インサイド財務省」は、「ホテル大蔵」とかつて呼ばれた激務の不夜城である財務省の現状について、非常にわかりやすくまとめています。 今年10月から消費税が10%になることが決まっていますが、消費増税
As China’s Internet Disappears, ‘We Lose Parts of Our Collective Memory’
Chinese people know their country’s internet is different. There is no Google, YouTube, Facebook or Twitter. They use euphemisms online to communicate the things they are not supposed to mention. When their posts and accounts are censored, they accept it with resignation. They live in a parallel online universe. They know it and even joke about it. Now they are discovering that, beneath a facade b
Japanese town spent Covid-19 relief funds on giant squid statue | CNN
A coastal town in western Japan has drawn ire on social media for using some of the coronavirus relief funds it was given by the government to build a statue of a giant squid in the hopes of boosting tourism.

How will Iran respond to Israel’s attack on its Damascus consulate?
Iran has vowed retaliation for an Israeli attack on its consulate in Damascus last Monday. The strike was part of a pattern of escalated Israeli attacks in Syria since the eruption of the Gaza war last October.

Japanese Culture and Traditions
Because of the big cultural contrast, Japanese culture has always fascinated many foreigners, especially Westerners. This article aims to dive deeper and understand various aspects of Japan’s unique culture. Culture and traditions change over time. The only difference between the two is that culture, the root of any society, changes very slowly, but changes in traditions are comparatively faster.
Early this year, as the novel coronavirus began to spread in China, the predictions were immediate and stark: the outbreak was China’s “Chernobyl moment,” perhaps even “the beginning of the end” for the Chinese Communist Party, with geopolitical consequences that, at a time of growing U.S.-Chinese tension, would play to Washington’s considerable advantage. But then, almost as quickly, the predicti
