近年中国のハイスピードな経済発展により、都市化が進み、農耕地域の人々が大量に都市部へ移動した。それに伴い、著しい地方文化の変化がもたらされた。本稿では、主に、内モンゴル通遼市ホルチン中旗のＡ村における、1990年代と現代との婚姻習俗の比較を通し、現代における各種のサービス業の発展により、モンゴル人が結婚披露宴を実施する際には、自民族が持つ固有の伝統文化を結婚披露宴に取り入れる現象が見られるようになったこと、そしてモンゴル人が都市部で創り出した「異種混合」の文化が内モンゴルの多くの地域に流行するようになったことを明らかにしている。それは、現代の農耕モンゴル人が、地方から都市部へ移動することによって、民族のアイディティを持つようになったという意識的な「文化の再構築」の活動である。本稿では主に、農耕モンゴル人の文化の再構築の過程を考察し、現代内モンゴルにおける文化の状況について論じていきたい。

1990年代後半, 単独での経済発展の限界を認識したシンガポールは, リージョナライゼーションに乗り出した。そして自国をアジアのハブとすべく「世界をシンガポールへ, シンガポールを世界へ」を打ち出した。このアジアのハブ構想ではヒトの移動が不可欠な要素であった。そこで, 本論は, ヒトの移動の観点から, リージョナライゼーションの時代におけるシンガポールの国家ブランディング戦略及びその戦略のなかでの人材活用の方策を明らかにしようと試みた。観光政策と人材政策から分析をすすめた結果, ヒトが集まるアジアのハブという国家ブランドを確立しようとしていたこと, そしてアジアのハブ構想のなかで国内の労働力だけでなく観光客や国外とのネットワークをつなぐ存在としての移民を活用してきたことを明らかにした。

This paper examines : (1) the medical governance of infectious diseases in Taiwan based on the experience of infectious diseases and the background of medical governance reform, (2) the role of big data and digital technology in infectious disease control, (3) medical strategy and non-pharmaceutical intervention, and (4) socio-political viewpoints regarding the COVID-19 pandemic in Taiwan. It will be possible to confirm that Taiwan's non-pharmaceutical intervention strategies, including mask wearing, AHH practices, quarantine / quarantine, travel restrictions and the implementation of social distancing, are increasing the effectiveness of preventive measures during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the combination of extensive risk communication highlighting the importance of early border control, government leadership and preventive action has prevented Taiwan from locking down. These comprehensive preventive measures against COVID-19 in 2020 are more efficient and effective than those implemented during SARS in 2003, as well as immunoassay responses. In addition, democracy provided institutional support for vibrant civil society and synergies between state and civil society, strengthened the legitimacy of Taiwan's crisis governance, and enhanced voluntary compliance among citizens.

We will discuss why Japan succeeded after the Meiji Restoration and why she has been stagnated since 1990s, and propose the conditions for the revitalization of the Japanese economy based on M.E. Porter’s factor condition and Michio Morishima’s view of population history. Michio Morishima maintains that the quantity and quality of population is the foundation of economy and society. This paper focus on values which is one of the qualitative aspects of human beings.

Taiwan is not a party to the Paris Agreement, but the impact of climate change on Taiwan is enough to be one. The Government of Taiwan has set a target of adjusting the power mix to 50% natural gas-fired, 30% coal-fired and 20% renewable energy by 2025, increasing the proportion of relatively low carbon emissions and renewable energy, and aiming to reduce GHG emissions as a climate change policy. One of the key aspects of Taiwan’s energy policy is to phase-out nuclear power generation by 2025, and to increase the share of renewable energy in the power supply configuration and reduce the use of coal-fired power. The phase-out of nuclear power plants was initially faster than the expansion of renewable energy, reducing CO2 emissions from electricity production as needed to a small amount. Nevertheless, since 2016, Taiwan has been evaluating the “energy transition” derived from Germany and is trying to decentralize its power supply using conventional large-scale, inflexible power generation systems.
　With regard to coal-fired power plants, Taiwan will accelerate the improvement of air pollution facilities at existing coal-fired power plants and implement utilization management measures in order to match air quality. Gas-fired and green energy power supplies will be the mainstays of power supply, which is the power stabilization target, in order to maintain 15% of the supply reserve rate. The government needs to plan supply-side measures and implement various tasks to save energy and reduce carbon emission in order to reduce electricity demand. To build clean energy systems and healthy living conditions, to promote the development of new green energy industries, to promote green employment, realize the spirit of energy empowerment, promote energy democracy and justice. Going forward, the focus will be on overall system integration, where all power supplies can ensure a sufficient level of revenue. In this study, we will consider Taiwan’s climate change and energy policy since the Paris Agreement, and summarize the current situation and issues.

In Aichi Prefecture, there are 15 cities and a ward which make up the automobile industrial agglomeration. Toyota City is functioning as not only a hub of Aichi type agglomeration but also all in Japan to some extent. Exceptionally considerable car plants in Toyota City showed steady growth after 1990's. The manufacturing industry of Toyota City is in the condition which therefore may be said as the car mono-culture. The population growth of Toyota City was decided by demand of car plant laborer before 1990's. The amount of the municipal taxes storage and the citizen strength a person of Toyota City greatly depend on the management achievement of the Toyota group. In this paper, the problem whether and how the auto sector of Toyota City developed other manufacturing sectors is not clarified.
