The Internment of Anthropology:
Wartime Studies of Japanese Culture
On the one hand we dogmatically insist that anthropology rests on ethno-
graphic research involving personal, prolonged interaction with the Other. But
then we pronounce upon the knowledge gained from such research a discourse
which construes the Other in terms of distance, spatial and temporal. The Oth-
er’s empirical presence turns into his theoretical absence, a conjuring trick . . .
to keep the Other outside the Time of anthropology.—Johannes Fabian, Time
and the Other
In War Without Mercy, historian John Dower’s 1986 book on the racial
discourses that informed the war between Japan and the United States,
there is a fleeting but vitally important point about the terms of the na-
tional perception of Japanese Americans.1 ‘‘The treatment of Japanese
Americans,’’ Dower begins, ‘‘is a natural starting point for any study of
the racial aspects of the war, for it reveals not merely the clear-cut racial
stigmatization of the Japanese, but also the oªcial endorsement this
received’’ (79). He then concludes that the key to understanding the
terms of their treatment rests in the oªcial program of ‘‘community
analysis’’ or ethnographic study that the War Relocation Authority
(wra) ‘‘established in the ten camps in which Japanese-Americans
were incarcerated’’ (79). Although Dower does not elaborate on the
possible implications of community analysis, the ambitions of com-
munity analysts were well documented at the time, and they revolved
around using interviews with the internees in an e¤ort to develop theo-
ries of Japanese behavior that would be useful after the war when the
United States occupied Japan. Thus, anthropology’s central role in the

‘‘treatment’’ of Japanese American internees begins to suggest some-
thing of the truth of Johannes Fabian’s argument quoted in the epi-
graph to this chapter—that anthropology makes its Other (in this case,
Japanese Americans) by using information gathered from ‘‘personal,
prolonged interaction’’ in an e¤ort to set the Other beyond the spatial
and temporal realm of the examiner (in occupied Japan) and, thus,
‘‘keep the Other outside the Time of anthropology.’’2 The work of the
mostly liberal, white camp anthropologists or ‘‘community analysts,’’
as they were oªcially known, was beset with problems peculiar to the
national and institutional politics of the war, a fact that complicates the
ways in which Japanese Americans were ultimately constructed as ra-
cial Others. American anthropological studies of internment became
not just another example of the American propensity for seeing Japa-
nese Americans as Japanese aliens, but more important, the studies be-
came a clearinghouse for certain transitions in the deployment and
power of anthrop.

"Destructive Force"
Aiko Herzig-Yoshinaga's Gendered Labor in the Japanese American Redress
Movement
THOMAS Y. FUJITA-RONY
In recent years, scholars have significantly deepened our understanding of the
instrumental role of women in political movements.1 As these studies have
pointed out, gendered narratives of struggle have often limited the ways in
which women's work is perceived as contributing to these efforts. Especially
when this labor is not visible to outsiders, their crucial contributions have of-
ten gone underacknowledged, as when women act as informal organizers, as
the bridges between differing sectors of a movement, or when they perform
"support" functions.2
This article explores the labor of one such woman, activist Aiko Herzig-
Yoshinaga, who played a vital role in the national movement for Japanese
American redress in the 198os and 199os. Her discovery of previously un-
known factual evidence and, crucially, her ability to recreate and document the
"paper trail" leading to and contextualizing this factual evidence for others
prompted one opposing lawyer to call her a "destructive force."3 Her efforts
were essential in the redress campaign that decisively shattered the image of
government benevolence and innocence in the World War II exclusion and in-
carceration of the West Coast's Japanese American population.4 The article
that follows will discuss how her involvement was shaped by previous experi-
ences in political struggles, and, significantly, by her decades of experience as
a clerical worker, a field which has been a largely female occupation in the
post-World War II era.5
Because of her involvement in the civil rights and antiwar movements of the
1960s and 1970s, Herzig-Yoshinaga became curious about what information
the government had collected on her and her family, both from the wartime
years when she had been inca ...
This document is a dissertation submitted by student Freddie Ayles on the topic of how the ancient Japanese religion of Shinto gave impetus for Japan to develop into an imperialist and expansionist nation by the end of the Meiji Period from 1868 to 1912. The dissertation contains an introduction outlining the topic, three chapters on Shinto as ritual, Shinto in education, and the emperor system and nationalism. It also includes a conclusion and bibliography. The dissertation focuses on analyzing how elements of Shinto were used and adapted during the Meiji Period to help transform Japan into a modern imperial power.
This document provides context for a forum introducing developments in Japanese anthropology centered around interest in an "ontological turn." It discusses how Japanese anthropology has historically focused on holism but more recently embraced practice theory under scholars like Tanabe and Fukushima. Studies of ecologies of practices and anthropology pursuing life have explored how societies emerge through interacting practices and boundaries between life sciences and subjectivities. This has bridged to interest in ontology, influenced by scholars like Latour exploring nature-culture symmetrically. The edited volume "Anthropology as Critique of Reality" aims to introduce ontology into Japanese anthropology with particular inflections. The forum includes chapters from the volume and commentaries.

Specifically, it discusses how postwar Japan experienced political, economic, and cultural restructuring under US occupation that eliminated military influence and conservative elements while increasing workers' power and consumerism. This caused traditional values and art to be replaced, making Ono feel disturbed by the new culture.

This document introduces a collection of essays on Philippine historiography and postcolonial studies translated into Japanese. It summarizes the contributions of three Filipino historians - Reynaldo Ileto, Vicente Rafael, and Floro Quibuyen - who have critically examined Philippine history from perspectives influenced by colonialism, nationalism, and globalization. The eight selected essays explore topics like the Philippine Revolution, American occupation, and changing images of national hero Jose Rizal. While each author develops unique arguments, they share a common goal of viewing colonial modernity in the Philippines as shaped by centuries of Spanish, American, and Japanese rule, and constructing novel analytical perspectives on Philippine politics, society and culture in relation to imperial
Yoshimitsu Benedict Endō Guilt Shame And The Post War Idea Of JapanMasa Nakata
This document summarizes the development of the idea that Japan lacks a sense of guilt and is instead a "shame culture." It originated from Japanese intellectuals critiquing pre-war ideology after WWII and from Japan's reception of Ruth Benedict's book on Japanese culture. This idea influenced theories of Japanese culture ("Nihonbunkaron") and was expressed in novels by Endo Shusaku. The document discusses how Endo's views parallelled the development of Nihonbunkaron and were influenced by Benedict, while also reacting against post-war critiques of traditional Japanese ideology. It provides context on Endo's mentor Yoshimitsu Yoshihiko, a pre-war Catholic intellectual who took a

This document provides an introduction and overview of the book "Learning from Shogun: Japanese History and Western Fantasy". It discusses how James Clavell's novel Shogun has educated many people about Japanese history and culture. The book contains essays that analyze Shogun as both a work of fantasy and as a representation of historical events in 16th century Japan. It aims to help readers learn more about the actual history behind Clavell's fictional story.
During World War 2, racism emerged between Americans and Japanese. The Japanese were viewed as sub-human and dehumanized. They were imprisoned and stereotyped. Stereotypes portrayed Japanese as small, primitive, childish and crazy. Both Americans and Japanese felt they had to dehumanize the enemy to make killing them easier. Racial tensions rose in the US as whites targeted Japanese with signs calling for them to be hunted. It took the entire war and more to reduce the stereotypes between Americans and Japanese.

While it is fine to state your personal opinion on these questions, please be sure that you support your opinion with historical evidence. The best answers will have an argument and will be very detailed. The answer should have a beginning, middle and an end, and will probably be 400 words.
1. What role does the West play in shaping modern East Asia? How does this role change over time (if it does change). In your opinion is the role of the West a net positive or a net negative? Why?
2. What are the merits and demerits of the Champion of the East and the Gentleman of Western Learning’s arguments in Discourse of Three Drunkards on Government. Which view do you support? Why?
3. What is the nature of nationalism in the Japanese and Chinese contexts? What does it stem from? How do nationalistic sentiments change in the first three decades of the twentieth century in East Asia?
4. Describe the changes in Japan-Chinese relations over time beginning in 1895 up through 1937. In what ways do relations change? What factors force them to change?
5. By the 1920s, Japan had already become an important world power, while China remained mired in warlord politics and political factionalism. How do you account for the differences in China and Japan? What factors helped facilitate Japan’s “rise”?
6. Evaluate the arguments made by Japanese leaders regarding Pan Asianism from the early 20th century up through the creation of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere. What was attractive about these sentiments for many people in East Asia? How do you yourself feel about the way the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere was portrayed?
7. How did Chiang Kaishek rise to prominence in China in the 1920s? What was the legitimacy of Chiang Kaishek’s Nationalist government based upon? How do the campaigns against the Chinese Communist Party fit into this?
8. How do you view Wang Jingwei? Was he a collaborator as he is commonly portrayed in China or is he a patriot whose reputation has been slandered since the end of the war? To answer this question, you must address the differences between collaborators and resisters in the wartime period. What constitutes these two categories? What problems are there in using these two turns of phrase?
9. Scholars have suggested that the Pacific War between Japan and the United States was inevitable, but there is a considerable amount of disagreement about when it became inevitable. What single point do you consider to be the “point of no return” for the outbreak of the war? Please note in your response at least two other potential points and explain why you did not choose them.

Beyond the Memory of Patriotism: Seeking a Way to Reconcile Patriotism-Memory...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: This paper examines the reconciliation of patriotism and war time memory in Japanese history
text book disputes, challenging the perceiveddichoto my between these concepts. It focuses on the ideological
clash betweenSaburoIenaga'sadvocacy for educationalfreedom and the nationalistic stance of the Japanese
Society for HistoryTextbook Reform (Tsukurukai). The author argues for a democratic and
rationalizedinterpretation of patriotism thatcoexists with historical memory.The authoroutlines the importance of
historytextbooks in shaping national identity and memory, tracing Japan's post-WWII textbookapproval system
and debates on wartimehistoryportrayal. Ienaga'slawsuitsemphasized the necessity of educationreflectingsocietal
values and acknowledging national errors for truepatriotism. Conversely,
TsukurukaiadvocatedminimizingJapan'swartimeatrocities, promoting "healthynationalism."Despite their shared
critique of postwar democracy, Ienaga and Tsukurukai diverge significantly in addressing Japan's dark past and
defining patriotism. The author concludes that genuine patriotism involves openly admitting past mistakes and
learning from history. This approach challenges Tsukurukai's tendency to overlook Japan's negative history,
advocating for a balanced, truthful educational representation of the past, essential for a globally responsible and
peaceful future.

The Bank of America Earnings Crisis
In 2020, many businesses experienced notable challenges due to the outbreak of the coronavirus. The Bank of America was no exception based on its reports of firm earnings in 2020. According to Eisen (2021), many large financial organizations in the United States withstood the recession due to COVID-19. However, the author explains that the banks have not been fully protected against the minimal rates brought about by the pandemic. For Bank of America, the outcomes of the COVID-19 outbreak have been felt in many ways, particularly the reduction of earnings by 22%. Additionally, lenders have also experienced significant challenges based on low-interest rates, and Bank of America is among them. Since the financial institution gains earnings on the difference between their lending payments and what they pay to depositors, the bank's interest rates downfall. The earnings crisis also affected the firm's operations in the last quarter of 2020 even though it made considerable profits.
Communication Tactics and Addressing the Crisis
Handling a crisis in organizations presents notable problems for managers and leaders that do not understand the proper ways of solving a crisis. Warren Buffet explains that there are four significant steps a leader can take to address a crisis. First, getting the crisis right and understanding why it happens and what can stop it will help address the crisis. The Bank of America leaders understood that the company needs to introduce measures that will increase the earnings. Secondly, according to Buffet, responding to the crisis fast is also a core step in managing a crisis. The Bank of America did not wait until the last quarter of 2020 to react to the earnings crisis. Rather, they resorted to ensuring the loan demands are stabilized by business consumers and focused more on investment activities (Eisen, 2021). The third and fourth steps based on Warren's advice involve getting the crisis out by dealing with it and getting over with. Th.

Let’s look at a real-world scenario and how the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) plays into it. In the scenario, the United States will be hit by a large-scale, coordinated cyber attack organized by China. These attacks debilitate the functioning of government agencies, parts of the critical infrastructure, and commercial ventures. The IT infrastructure of several agencies are paralyzed, the electric grid in most of the country is shut down, telephone traffic is seriously limited and satellite communications are down (limiting the Department of Defense’s [DOD’s] ability to communicate with commands overseas). International commerce and financial institutions are also severely hit. Please explain how DHS should handle this situation.

CHAPTER:1Introduction
Sustainable tourism is a form of tourism, which requires a tourist to respect the local culture, environment, preserving cultural heritage, and supporting local economies by purchasing local products which also benefits the people of that country. Sustainable tourism is a form of development, which is Social development, Economic development and Nature protection. According to the World Tourism Organization, Sustainable tourism is “Tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment, and host communities” UNWTO (2013). Denmark is more concerned about sustainable environment, for instance the Government is aiming at Copenhagen becoming the world’s first carbon-neutral capital by 2025. Government have put high taxation on vehicles, cars so Danes have to think twice before buying or using them. This could be the strategy of the nation. As they are on the way to gain something remarkable, they also have some challenges. The tourism industry has a million of turnover in Danish economy and Danish government puts a high effort in order to make it more sustainable. The big topic could be how the tourist react on it? All the government efforts could be result less if the customer and the business does not act smart. To the Danes, sustainability is a holistic approach that includes renewable energy, water management, waste recycling and green transportation including bicycle culture. Most of the local restaurants use re-usable things during their service also, practices waste deposable for take away.
Tourism is the best way to experience the culture however, damage and waste can occur due to inappropriate behavior of tourists. According to the Denmark statics (2019), every year tourist spends around 128 billion DKK in Denmark. Denmark is very responsible towards environment and most of the hotels are practicing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). For example, Scandic Kødbyen is one of the hotels practicing sustainability, first to implement CSR. It plays a significant support in sustainable tourism business, which includes hotel, restaurant and the service provided sectors. Visit Copenhagen states that 70% of hotels hold an official eco-certification and also known as the hap.

BROTHERS AND SISTERS, please read The Diamond
That Cuts through Illusion with a serene mind, a mind
free from views. It’s the basic sutra for the practice of
meditation. Late at night, it’s a pleasure to recite the
Diamond Sutra alone, in complete silence. The sutra is
so deep and wonderful. It has its own language. The
first Western scholars who obtained the text thought it
was talking nonsense. Its language seems mysterious,
but when you look deeply, you can understand.
Don’t rush into the commentaries or you may be
unduly influenced by them. Please read the sutra first.
You may see things that no commentator has seen. You
can read as if you were chanting, using your clear body
and mind to be in touch with the words. Try to
understand the sutra from your own experiences and
your own suffering. It is helpful to ask, “Do these
teachings of the Buddha have anything to do with my
daily life?” Abstract ideas can be beautiful, but if they
have nothing to do with our life, of what use are they?
So please ask, “Do the words have anything to do with
eating a meal, drinking tea, cutting wood, or carrying
water?”
The sutra’s full name is The Diamond That Cuts
through Illusion, Vajracchedika Prajñaparamita in
Sanskrit. Vajracchedika means “the diamond that cuts
through afflictions, ignorance, delusion, or illusion.” In
China and Vietnam, people generally call it the Diamond
Sutra, emphasizing the word “diamond,” but, in fact,
the phrase “cutting through” is the most important.
Prajñaparamita means “per.

This document summarizes and analyzes a journal article about Taiwan's strategic importance and influence in its relationships with China, Japan, and the United States. The summary identifies four key factors that have allowed Taiwan to seize diplomatic initiative: 1) Taiwan's geographic position which leads China to seek reunification but Japan and US to prefer status quo, 2) Shared democratic values with Japan and US, 3) China's threats of force which empower Taiwan, and 4) Taiwan being a test of US credibility which Taiwan relies on. The document then analyzes each factor in turn and discusses policy implications, including the need to reduce tensions to prevent miscalculation leading to conflict.

Tackling wicked problems A public policy perspective Ple.docxperryk1
Tackling wicked problems : A
public policy perspective
Please note - this is an archived publication.
Commissioner’s foreword
The Australian Public Service (APS) is increasingly being tasked with solving very
complex policy problems. Some of these policy issues are so complex they have
been called ‘wicked’ problems. The term ‘wicked’ in this context is used, not in the
sense of evil, but rather as an issue highly resistant to resolution.
Successfully solving or at least managing these wicked policy problems requires
a reassessment of some of the traditional ways of working and solving problems
in the APS. They challenge our governance structures, our skills base and our
organisational capacity.
It is important, as a first step, that wicked problems be recognised as such.
Successfully tackling wicked problems requires a broad recognition and
understanding, including from governments and Ministers, that there are no quick
fixes and simple solutions.
Tackling wicked problems is an evolving art. They require thinking that is capable
of grasping the big picture, including the interrelationships among the full range of
causal factors underlying them. They often require broader, more collaborative
and innovative approaches. This may result in the occasional failure or need for
policy change or adjustment.
Wicked problems highlight the fundamental importance of the APS building on the
progress that has been made with working across organisational boundaries both
within and outside the APS. The APS needs to continue to focus on effectively
engaging stakeholders and citizens in understanding the relevant issues and in
involving them in identifying possible solutions.
The purpose of this publication is more to stimulate debate around what is
needed for the successful tackling of wicked problems than to provide all the
answers. Such a debate is a necessary precursor to reassessing our current
systems, frameworks and ways of working to ensure they are capable of
responding to the complex issues facing the APS.
I hope that this publication will encourage public service managers to reflect on
these issues, and to look for ways to improve the capacity of the APS to deal
effectively with the complex policy problems confronting us.
Lynelle Briggs
Australian Public Service Commissioner
1. Introduction
Many of the most pressing policy challenges for the APS involve dealing with very
complex problems. These problems share a range of characteristics—they go
beyond the capacity of any one organisation to understand and respond to, and
there is often disagreement about the causes of the problems and the best way to
tackle them. These complex policy problems are sometimes called ‘wicked’
problems.
Usually, part of the solution to wicked problems involves changing the behaviour
of groups of citizens or all citizens. Other key ingredients in solving or at least
managing complex policy problems include successfu.

This document introduces a collection of essays on Philippine historiography and postcolonial studies translated into Japanese. It summarizes the contributions of three Filipino historians - Reynaldo Ileto, Vicente Rafael, and Floro Quibuyen - who have critically examined Philippine history from perspectives influenced by colonialism, nationalism, and globalization. The eight selected essays explore topics like the Philippine Revolution, American occupation, and changing images of national hero Jose Rizal. While each author develops unique arguments, they share a common goal of viewing colonial modernity in the Philippines as shaped by centuries of Spanish, American, and Japanese rule, and constructing novel analytical perspectives on Philippine politics, society and culture in relation to imperial
Yoshimitsu Benedict Endō Guilt Shame And The Post War Idea Of JapanMasa Nakata
This document summarizes the development of the idea that Japan lacks a sense of guilt and is instead a "shame culture." It originated from Japanese intellectuals critiquing pre-war ideology after WWII and from Japan's reception of Ruth Benedict's book on Japanese culture. This idea influenced theories of Japanese culture ("Nihonbunkaron") and was expressed in novels by Endo Shusaku. The document discusses how Endo's views parallelled the development of Nihonbunkaron and were influenced by Benedict, while also reacting against post-war critiques of traditional Japanese ideology. It provides context on Endo's mentor Yoshimitsu Yoshihiko, a pre-war Catholic intellectual who took a

This document provides an introduction and overview of the book "Learning from Shogun: Japanese History and Western Fantasy". It discusses how James Clavell's novel Shogun has educated many people about Japanese history and culture. The book contains essays that analyze Shogun as both a work of fantasy and as a representation of historical events in 16th century Japan. It aims to help readers learn more about the actual history behind Clavell's fictional story.
During World War 2, racism emerged between Americans and Japanese. The Japanese were viewed as sub-human and dehumanized. They were imprisoned and stereotyped. Stereotypes portrayed Japanese as small, primitive, childish and crazy. Both Americans and Japanese felt they had to dehumanize the enemy to make killing them easier. Racial tensions rose in the US as whites targeted Japanese with signs calling for them to be hunted. It took the entire war and more to reduce the stereotypes between Americans and Japanese.

Beyond the Memory of Patriotism: Seeking a Way to Reconcile Patriotism-Memory...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: This paper examines the reconciliation of patriotism and war time memory in Japanese history
text book disputes, challenging the perceiveddichoto my between these concepts. It focuses on the ideological
clash betweenSaburoIenaga'sadvocacy for educationalfreedom and the nationalistic stance of the Japanese
Society for HistoryTextbook Reform (Tsukurukai). The author argues for a democratic and
rationalizedinterpretation of patriotism thatcoexists with historical memory.The authoroutlines the importance of
historytextbooks in shaping national identity and memory, tracing Japan's post-WWII textbookapproval system
and debates on wartimehistoryportrayal. Ienaga'slawsuitsemphasized the necessity of educationreflectingsocietal
values and acknowledging national errors for truepatriotism. Conversely,
TsukurukaiadvocatedminimizingJapan'swartimeatrocities, promoting "healthynationalism."Despite their shared
critique of postwar democracy, Ienaga and Tsukurukai diverge significantly in addressing Japan's dark past and
defining patriotism. The author concludes that genuine patriotism involves openly admitting past mistakes and
learning from history. This approach challenges Tsukurukai's tendency to overlook Japan's negative history,
advocating for a balanced, truthful educational representation of the past, essential for a globally responsible and
peaceful future.

The Bank of America Earnings Crisis
In 2020, many businesses experienced notable challenges due to the outbreak of the coronavirus. The Bank of America was no exception based on its reports of firm earnings in 2020. According to Eisen (2021), many large financial organizations in the United States withstood the recession due to COVID-19. However, the author explains that the banks have not been fully protected against the minimal rates brought about by the pandemic. For Bank of America, the outcomes of the COVID-19 outbreak have been felt in many ways, particularly the reduction of earnings by 22%. Additionally, lenders have also experienced significant challenges based on low-interest rates, and Bank of America is among them. Since the financial institution gains earnings on the difference between their lending payments and what they pay to depositors, the bank's interest rates downfall. The earnings crisis also affected the firm's operations in the last quarter of 2020 even though it made considerable profits.
Communication Tactics and Addressing the Crisis
Handling a crisis in organizations presents notable problems for managers and leaders that do not understand the proper ways of solving a crisis. Warren Buffet explains that there are four significant steps a leader can take to address a crisis. First, getting the crisis right and understanding why it happens and what can stop it will help address the crisis. The Bank of America leaders understood that the company needs to introduce measures that will increase the earnings. Secondly, according to Buffet, responding to the crisis fast is also a core step in managing a crisis. The Bank of America did not wait until the last quarter of 2020 to react to the earnings crisis. Rather, they resorted to ensuring the loan demands are stabilized by business consumers and focused more on investment activities (Eisen, 2021). The third and fourth steps based on Warren's advice involve getting the crisis out by dealing with it and getting over with. Th.

Let’s look at a real-world scenario and how the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) plays into it. In the scenario, the United States will be hit by a large-scale, coordinated cyber attack organized by China. These attacks debilitate the functioning of government agencies, parts of the critical infrastructure, and commercial ventures. The IT infrastructure of several agencies are paralyzed, the electric grid in most of the country is shut down, telephone traffic is seriously limited and satellite communications are down (limiting the Department of Defense’s [DOD’s] ability to communicate with commands overseas). International commerce and financial institutions are also severely hit. Please explain how DHS should handle this situation.

CHAPTER:1Introduction
Sustainable tourism is a form of tourism, which requires a tourist to respect the local culture, environment, preserving cultural heritage, and supporting local economies by purchasing local products which also benefits the people of that country. Sustainable tourism is a form of development, which is Social development, Economic development and Nature protection. According to the World Tourism Organization, Sustainable tourism is “Tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment, and host communities” UNWTO (2013). Denmark is more concerned about sustainable environment, for instance the Government is aiming at Copenhagen becoming the world’s first carbon-neutral capital by 2025. Government have put high taxation on vehicles, cars so Danes have to think twice before buying or using them. This could be the strategy of the nation. As they are on the way to gain something remarkable, they also have some challenges. The tourism industry has a million of turnover in Danish economy and Danish government puts a high effort in order to make it more sustainable. The big topic could be how the tourist react on it? All the government efforts could be result less if the customer and the business does not act smart. To the Danes, sustainability is a holistic approach that includes renewable energy, water management, waste recycling and green transportation including bicycle culture. Most of the local restaurants use re-usable things during their service also, practices waste deposable for take away.
Tourism is the best way to experience the culture however, damage and waste can occur due to inappropriate behavior of tourists. According to the Denmark statics (2019), every year tourist spends around 128 billion DKK in Denmark. Denmark is very responsible towards environment and most of the hotels are practicing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). For example, Scandic Kødbyen is one of the hotels practicing sustainability, first to implement CSR. It plays a significant support in sustainable tourism business, which includes hotel, restaurant and the service provided sectors. Visit Copenhagen states that 70% of hotels hold an official eco-certification and also known as the hap.

BROTHERS AND SISTERS, please read The Diamond
That Cuts through Illusion with a serene mind, a mind
free from views. It’s the basic sutra for the practice of
meditation. Late at night, it’s a pleasure to recite the
Diamond Sutra alone, in complete silence. The sutra is
so deep and wonderful. It has its own language. The
first Western scholars who obtained the text thought it
was talking nonsense. Its language seems mysterious,
but when you look deeply, you can understand.
Don’t rush into the commentaries or you may be
unduly influenced by them. Please read the sutra first.
You may see things that no commentator has seen. You
can read as if you were chanting, using your clear body
and mind to be in touch with the words. Try to
understand the sutra from your own experiences and
your own suffering. It is helpful to ask, “Do these
teachings of the Buddha have anything to do with my
daily life?” Abstract ideas can be beautiful, but if they
have nothing to do with our life, of what use are they?
So please ask, “Do the words have anything to do with
eating a meal, drinking tea, cutting wood, or carrying
water?”
The sutra’s full name is The Diamond That Cuts
through Illusion, Vajracchedika Prajñaparamita in
Sanskrit. Vajracchedika means “the diamond that cuts
through afflictions, ignorance, delusion, or illusion.” In
China and Vietnam, people generally call it the Diamond
Sutra, emphasizing the word “diamond,” but, in fact,
the phrase “cutting through” is the most important.
Prajñaparamita means “per.

This document summarizes and analyzes a journal article about Taiwan's strategic importance and influence in its relationships with China, Japan, and the United States. The summary identifies four key factors that have allowed Taiwan to seize diplomatic initiative: 1) Taiwan's geographic position which leads China to seek reunification but Japan and US to prefer status quo, 2) Shared democratic values with Japan and US, 3) China's threats of force which empower Taiwan, and 4) Taiwan being a test of US credibility which Taiwan relies on. The document then analyzes each factor in turn and discusses policy implications, including the need to reduce tensions to prevent miscalculation leading to conflict.

Tackling wicked problems A public policy perspective Ple.docxperryk1
Tackling wicked problems : A
public policy perspective
Please note - this is an archived publication.
Commissioner’s foreword
The Australian Public Service (APS) is increasingly being tasked with solving very
complex policy problems. Some of these policy issues are so complex they have
been called ‘wicked’ problems. The term ‘wicked’ in this context is used, not in the
sense of evil, but rather as an issue highly resistant to resolution.
Successfully solving or at least managing these wicked policy problems requires
a reassessment of some of the traditional ways of working and solving problems
in the APS. They challenge our governance structures, our skills base and our
organisational capacity.
It is important, as a first step, that wicked problems be recognised as such.
Successfully tackling wicked problems requires a broad recognition and
understanding, including from governments and Ministers, that there are no quick
fixes and simple solutions.
Tackling wicked problems is an evolving art. They require thinking that is capable
of grasping the big picture, including the interrelationships among the full range of
causal factors underlying them. They often require broader, more collaborative
and innovative approaches. This may result in the occasional failure or need for
policy change or adjustment.
Wicked problems highlight the fundamental importance of the APS building on the
progress that has been made with working across organisational boundaries both
within and outside the APS. The APS needs to continue to focus on effectively
engaging stakeholders and citizens in understanding the relevant issues and in
involving them in identifying possible solutions.
The purpose of this publication is more to stimulate debate around what is
needed for the successful tackling of wicked problems than to provide all the
answers. Such a debate is a necessary precursor to reassessing our current
systems, frameworks and ways of working to ensure they are capable of
responding to the complex issues facing the APS.
I hope that this publication will encourage public service managers to reflect on
these issues, and to look for ways to improve the capacity of the APS to deal
effectively with the complex policy problems confronting us.
Lynelle Briggs
Australian Public Service Commissioner
1. Introduction
Many of the most pressing policy challenges for the APS involve dealing with very
complex problems. These problems share a range of characteristics—they go
beyond the capacity of any one organisation to understand and respond to, and
there is often disagreement about the causes of the problems and the best way to
tackle them. These complex policy problems are sometimes called ‘wicked’
problems.
Usually, part of the solution to wicked problems involves changing the behaviour
of groups of citizens or all citizens. Other key ingredients in solving or at least
managing complex policy problems include successfu.

Useful tips (part 1)
1 Often the number of classes in a frequency distribution is the same as the
number of categories found in the data. Most statisticians recommend
that classes with smaller frequencies be grouped into an aggregate class
called „other”. Classes with frequencies of 5% or less would most often be
treated in this fashion.
2 The sum of the frequencies in any frequency distribution always equals
the number of observations. The sum of the relative frequencies in any
relative frequency distribution.

Tajfel and Turner (in chapter two of our reader) give us the followi.docxperryk1
Tajfel and Turner (in chapter two of our reader) give us the following definition of Social Identity Theory: "SIT proposes that individuals make sense of their social environment by categorizing themselves and others into groups that can be contrasted with others" (Oksanen et al., 2014). SIT brings order to chaos, you might say, in that individuals define themselves as being different from everyone else.
Considering what we have read about the perpetrators of group violence, how do you suppose that it is that people make the leap from their own social identity to group violence? What social and psychological mechanisms are at work that would go from simple categorization to overt violence?

A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.

The Internment of Anthropology:
Wartime Studies of Japanese Culture
On the one hand we dogmatically insist that anthropology rests
on ethno-
graphic research involving personal, prolonged interaction with
the Other. But
then we pronounce upon the knowledge gained from such
research a discourse
which construes the Other in terms of distance, spatial and
temporal. The Oth-
er’s empirical presence turns into his theoretical absence, a
conjuring trick . . .
to keep the Other outside the Time of anthropology.—Johannes
Fabian, Time
and the Other
In War Without Mercy, historian John Dower’s 1986 book on
the racial
discourses that informed the war between Japan and the United
States,
there is a fleeting but vitally important point about the terms of
the na-
2. tional perception of Japanese Americans.1 ‘‘The treatment of
Japanese
Americans,’’ Dower begins, ‘‘is a natural starting point for any
study of
the racial aspects of the war, for it reveals not merely the clear-
cut racial
stigmatization of the Japanese, but also the oªcial endorsement
this
received’’ (79). He then concludes that the key to understanding
the
terms of their treatment rests in the oªcial program of
‘‘community
analysis’’ or ethnographic study that the War Relocation
Authority
(wra) ‘‘established in the ten camps in which Japanese-
Americans
were incarcerated’’ (79). Although Dower does not elaborate on
the
possible implications of community analysis, the ambitions of
com-
munity analysts were well documented at the time, and they
revolved
around using interviews with the internees in an e¤ort to
develop theo-
ries of Japanese behavior that would be useful after the war
when the
United States occupied Japan. Thus, anthropology’s central role

‘‘treatment’’ of Japanese American internees begins to suggest
some-
thing of the truth of Johannes Fabian’s argument quoted in the
epi-
graph to this chapter—that anthropology makes its Other (in
this case,
Japanese Americans) by using information gathered from
‘‘personal,
prolonged interaction’’ in an e¤ort to set the Other beyond the
spatial
and temporal realm of the examiner (in occupied Japan) and,
thus,
‘‘keep the Other outside the Time of anthropology.’’2 The work
of the
mostly liberal, white camp anthropologists or ‘‘community
analysts,’’
as they were oªcially known, was beset with problems peculiar
to the
national and institutional politics of the war, a fact that
complicates the
ways in which Japanese Americans were ultimately constructed
as ra-
cial Others. American anthropological studies of internment
became
not just another example of the American propensity for seeing

nese Americans as Japanese aliens, but more important, the
studies be-
came a clearinghouse for certain transitions in the deployment
and
power of anthropological theories about Asian Americans that
were to
have serious, long-term e¤ects on the self-concept and political
status
4. of Japanese Americans. Beneath the circuits of influence and
layers of
obfuscation, community analysis programs allowed liberal,
white an-
thropologists unparalleled power to reconstruct the Nisei in
particular.
Government records indicate that during the early years of
World
War II the wra, which was initially established to administer
intern-
ment or relocation camps housing more than one hundred
thousand
West Coast Japanese Americans, created the community
analysis pro-
gram to assist in the administration of the internment camps.
Termed
the ‘‘community analysis section,’’ it began at Poston camp in
Arizona
and eventually involved the assignment of social scientists as
govern-
ment agents in each of the ten internment camps.3 Most of the
social
scientists involved were anthropologists whose chief
qualification was
their knowledge of and interest in Japanese cultural and
behavioral pat-
terns, although only a handful had ever actually visited Japan.4
As com-
munity analysts they were primarily responsible for ensuring
the
smooth operation of camp life. But while stationed in the camps
they
were also explicitly encouraged to utilize Japanese American
internees
as informants on Japanese culture in the hope that the data
5. collected
might prove useful not only to the ongoing war e¤ort against
Japan but
also to the postwar e¤ort as well. The government hoped for
insights
useful for the control of both international and domestic
Japanese com-
munities: the reformation of Japan in the postwar period as well
as the
resettlement of Japanese Americans after the war.5 Or, as

it, ‘‘observations based on work with these persecuted and
uprooted
Americans were superimposed upon the growing collective
portrait of
the Japanese enemy, and several social scientists who worked in
the
camps went on to participate directly in psychological-warfare
plan-
ning pertaining to Japan.’’6
In truth, however, the relationship between the data drawn from
community analysis and theories of Japanese character was even
more
complicated. Once the project was underway, some
anthropologists be-
6. gan to recognize that the recruitment of dispossessed Japanese
Ameri-
cans as informants on Japanese culture occurred under such
unique
domestic conditions of suspicion and uncertainty that the uses
of com-
munity analysis in postwar Japan must, at the very least, be
compro-
mised. The anthropologists’ reservations about simply
transferring
methods of regulating camp life to the occupation of Japan were
often
explicit, especially as they begin to see their job as that of
correcting
misconceptions about Japanese Americans by highlighting their
dif-
ficult ordeal during the war and promoting their chances for
successful
reintegration after the war. Ultimately, the relationship between
Japa-
nese Americans and Japanese cultural studies departed
significantly
from its founding intentions. Rather than simply using the
internees
as a resource for information on Japan, the anthropologists very
quickly became invested in drawing conclusions about Japanese
behav-
ior that could be applied to a program of readjustment for
Japanese
Americans. Community analysts paradoxically found themselves
will-
ing to concede that the population was an ‘‘alien’’ culture in
order to
develop an acceptable argument for their assimilability. Thus,
despite
the obvious dilemmas posed by this loose exchange and
7. substitution
of data, the anthropologists continued to pursue the assumption
that
theories of Japanese behavior and policies for reforming Japan
after the
war might be confirmed and tested through ‘‘prolonged’’
analyses and
observations of imprisoned Japanese Americans. The
immediate, his-
torical reasons for the liberal anthropologists’ willingness to
view the
terms ‘‘Japanese’’ and ‘‘Japanese American’’ as
interchangeable also
followed in the tradition of early national sociological studies
of ‘‘the
oriental problem,’’ which represented the peculiar American
founda-
tions of managing national anxieties about the ‘‘oriental’’ Other
by
reconstructing this ‘‘inscrutable’’ presence as an American in
the
making.
Scholars have only just recently begun to piece together the
elabo-
rate politics of internment anthropology that I synopsize here.

8. the fact that the cultural anthropologists’ participation in the
adminis-
tration of the Japanese American internment was public
knowledge
during the war years, it is only in the past decade that this
fraught part
of the history of American anthropology has been deemed a
watershed
in the conceptualization of the Japanese American subject.7
Peter Su-
zuki’s work in the early and mid-1980s was groundbreaking in
this re-
gard, because he was the first to catalog the ethical and
scientific prob-
lems suggested by thewra’s administration of the camps. In a
series of
essays on the role of internment politics in the development of
wartime
anthropology, Suzuki argues, among other things, that
‘‘anthropology
in the wra camp was misapplied because it was largely used to
control
and manipulate the inmates.’’8 Suzuki’s work was followed by
Orin
Starn’s 1986 essay, ‘‘Engineering Internment: Anthropologists
and
the War Relocation Authority,’’ a thoughtful and comprehensive
over-
view of the motivations, processes, and results of the
anthropologists’
misguided attempts to help Japanese American internees.
Although
Starn acknowledges that the analysts were stationed in the
camps in
order to gather data against Japan and to identify potential
9. problems,
he also focuses on the paradoxical means by which the
anthropologists
tried to use their positions to speak on behalf of the
incarcerated. He
concludes that despite ‘‘their good intentions of improving
camp con-
ditions and defusing anti-Japanese public opinion,’’ (700),wra
anthro-
pologists ultimately produced work and followed policies that
‘‘unin-
tentionally’’ promoted racial stereotypes about the Japanese
and, by
implication, the Japanese Americans as well. Starn’s impressive
analy-
sis remains indispensable for its synthesis of the evolution of
the an-
thropologists’ work in the internment camps. In his essay he
also reit-
erates Suzuki’s contention that the scholarly neglect of the
meaning of
camp analysis has deprived American anthropologists of the
opportu-
nity for important insights into the development of postwar
theories of
culture and behavior:
It continually struck me how little the basic views of wra
ethnographers
about their role in relocation have altered over the years.
Historical
changes have not inspired the kind of public self-examination
found, for
10. example, in the discussions of British anthropologists about
their rela-
tion to colonialism. . . . Continued convictions of having
contributed to
Japanese-American well-being in troubled times and to the war
e¤ort
more generally would have to be the starting points for such an
analysis.

Echoes of Dower resound in Starn’s description of the
anthropologists’
treatment of Japanese Americans as ‘‘starting points’’ for the
under-
standing of American attitudes about the Japanese. Starn seems
to sug-
gest that Americans must come to grips with the extent of the
anthro-
pologists’ participation in projecting Japanese Americans as an
‘‘alien’’
ethnic group in need of reformation, an enterprise that evokes
an ear-
lier, Western colonial paternalism.
11. Around the same time that Starn’s work was published, Yuji
Ichioka
organized a two-day conference on the internment titled ‘‘Views
From
Within: The Japanese American Wartime Internment
Experience,’’
held at the University of California at Berkeley, the center for
the origi-
nal Japanese Evacuation and Resettlement Study (jers). The
book that
came out of the conference gathered a wide-ranging series of
essays on
the politics of camp anthropology, essays that testify to the fact
that the
impact of community analysis is still being felt, although it is
not by
any means fully accounted for.9 Like Dower, Suzuki, and Starn,
Ichioka
and the conference participants found themselves focused on the
an-
thropological studies conducted in the camps as ‘‘the basis of a
rich so-
cial history of concentration camp life’’ (22), but they also
revealed the
diªculty of categorizing the e¤ects of community analysis. ‘‘It
goes
without saying,’’ Ichioka concludes, with his characteristic
cynicism,
‘‘that jers was not a research project in the service of a political
cause
on behalf of Japanese-Americans. To say that it should have
been is to
engage in wishful thinking; to criticize it for not having been is
to be
naı̈ ve’’ (23). Although the disastrous e¤ects of the tendency to
12. view
Japanese American culture as Japanese have been widely noted
and
have enriched numerous histories and memoirs of the period of
Japa-
nese American internment, postwar and Asian American critics
have
clearly just started to address the impact of anthropology’s
study of Jap-
anese Americans’ internment and resettlement.10
Still, as noted earlier by Dower, the underlying implications of
the
fact that theories of Japanese behavior were explicitly
confirmed or
tested by the administration of Japanese American internees
remain
unspoken. It is time to explain how the liberal anthropologists’
confla-
tion of Japanese American and Japanese culture allowed them
not just
to use an imprisoned population as a scientific resource but also
to
show how their reports from the camps reiterated earlier notions
about
Asians as ‘‘oriental Others’’ in America in an e¤ort to revitalize
the be-
lief in an assimilable Japanese Other. More specifically,

work of the camp anthropologists suggests parallels between the
ear-
lier focus on Asian Americans as ‘‘marginal men’’ and the
wartime ob-
session with the split character of the Japanese American Nisei.
De-
spite their stress on presentism and their suspicion of
historicism,
cultural anthropologists recast the concept of the Asian
American as
the ‘‘marginal man’’ as one of Japanese ‘‘duality.’’ According
to Robert
Park, who coined his definition in 1928, the ‘‘marginal man’’
was the
result of global movement and cross-cultural contact, which
created the
conditions for the emergence of the alienated immigrant
individual
caught between two distinct cultures.11 This concept
metamorphosed
into the wartime anthropologists’ concerns with Japanese
‘‘duality,’’
[the peculiar presence of warring impulses in an individual,] as
they
tried to show how the dualistic Japanese American might be
pushed
further toward the American pole. Community analysts argued
that
the presence of a tense generational struggle between Issei and
Nisei
internees was caused by the vestiges of a lingering, archaic
Japanese
character typified by the Issei, which the Nisei had to turn away
14. from
in order to progress toward full assimilation. As a result, the
anthropol-
ogists determined to utilize the ancient filial piety of Japanese
culture
as a means of spatially and temporally fixing the problem of
Japanese
Americans, a problem that, thus parsed, inevitably necessitated
their
forced movement toward another more modern and thus
American ex-
istence. Not coincidentally, this process of othering a group in
space
and time in order to create the imperative of colonial
reformation was
similarly deployed in occupied Japan, where the aim was to
break the
old, patriarchal Japanese traditions and replace them with a
model of
American democratic capitalism. In the end, however, the
community
analysis project was ultimately responsible for extending the
‘‘prob-
lem’’ of Japanese American di¤erence by aªrming the resilience
of
Japanese culture and, thus, maintaining the constructed
alienation of
the Nisei.
‘‘Experience in Such Colonies’’:
Establishing the Camp Analysis Project
Mass hysteria in the wake of Pearl Harbor provoked widespread
sus-
picion of Japanese Americans. Historian Michi Weglyn reveals
that
15. in February 1942, President Roosevelt signed Executive Order
9066,
thereby acting against the findings of the prewar Munson
Report,

T H E I N T E R N M E N T O F A N T H R O P O L O G Y 49
which had determined that ‘‘there is no Japanese problem on the
Coast.’’ This order designated much of the West Coast a
‘‘military
area,’’ and hence extended to the military carte blanche the
power to
remove any and all individuals of ‘‘a potentially dangerous’’
nature.
Even though the order did not specify Japanese Americans for
special
scrutiny, they emerged as the order’s intended target and remain
the
only ethnic group evacuated en masse under suspicion of
disloyalty.12
Ronald Takaki concludes that in signing Executive Order 9066
Roose-
velt had in e¤ect ‘‘signed a blank check, giving full authority to
General
DeWitt to evacuate the Japanese and place them in assembly
centers
and eventually in internment camps.’’13 Despite the fact that
almost
16. two-thirds of the evacuees were U.S. citizens—Nisei who had
been
born and, in many cases, reared on the West Coast—a number of
high-
ranking government oªcials urged Roosevelt forward in the
belief
that, as Secretary of War Harry Stimson put it, ‘‘their racial
characteris-
tics are such that we cannot understand or trust even the citizen
Japa-
nese.’’14 Within a year, virtually every West Coast Japanese
American
was sent to one of several remote relocation centers where he or
she
was oªcially quarantined and questioned to determine if
imprison-
ment in even more isolated internment camps, reserved for those
deemed disloyal and a threat to national security, was
warranted. Ten
relocation centers, often called ‘‘camps’’ even though they were
sup-
posed to be merely holding centers, were eventually established.
A central part of the task of assessing and containing Japanese
American internees fell to the group of government social
scientists
who became part of the wra’s administration of the camps. As
com-
munity analysts and as part of the Camp Analysts Section, or
cas, their
explicit duties in the camps were to assess levels of residual
‘‘Japanese
attitudes,’’ including and especially the evacuated population’s
varying
levels of loyalty to the United States; to recommend and direct
govern-
17. ment administration of the camps, including future plans for
perma-
nently relocating evacuees away from their lifelong homes in
the West;
and, later, to study the viability of training and using Japanese
Ameri-
cans as go-betweens in occupied areas of the Pacific.15
Archival evi-
dence reveals that the decision to place analysts in the camps
was ratio-
nalized not only as a domestic necessity for the purposes of
discovering
how to deal with the unique problems represented by Japanese
Ameri-
cans, but also as a means of studying and confirming theories of
Japa-
nese behavioral patterns.

50 A N A B S E N T P R E S E N C E
In an early memorandum from John Embree, the anthropologist
who ran the cas from Washington, D.C., to General J. L.
DeWitt, Em-
bree writes: ‘‘It is believed that various evacuees in the
Japanese reloca-
tion centers possess information regarding Japanese social,
political,
economic and labor conditions which can be of great value in
the prose-
18. cution of the war.’’16 Although Embree clearly refers to Kibei,
those Jap-
anese Americans who had been born in the United States but
educated
in Japan, camp analysts regularly dealt with and depended on
others in
the camps as well. By 1944, Embree had broadened the initial
focus on
the Kibei to state simply that the evacuees were used as
resources for
camp analysts from ‘‘the time the administration was first set
up.’’ He
also became more specific about the general uses of the data
collected
in the camps, saying, ‘‘the section was expected not only to be
informed
on social conditions in relocation centers but also on the social
organi-
zation of the West Coast Japanese before the war, and on that
abstruse
phenomenon called ‘Japanese psychology’ ’’ (278).
Here, the emphasis on historical context, on the specific social
con-
ditions a¤ecting Japanese Americans, is in large measure the
enduring
legacy of Franz Boas, who established the terms for cross-
cultural
analysis as early as 1887 when, in response to Otis Mason’s
Social Dar-
winist view of the evolution of all cultures as governed by
natural or
biological laws, Boas argued for the necessity of historical
specificity in
assessing the culture of any people.17 It is interesting to note
that even
19. Boas was not immune to such views. He entertained the validity
of the
physiological basis for comparison of cultures in his early
theories of
race and culture, even once acknowledging that some races
were, at
least in the then present day, ‘‘inherently’’ inferior to others. At
the
close of his career, however, he would adamantly insist that
cultural
di¤erences were ‘‘dependent upon historical causes, regardless
of
race.’’18 Although Boas and those who studied with him
accepted that
historical and social forces were the ultimate source of cultural
di¤er-
ences, the debate did not entirely eliminate the resort to racial
stereo-
typing in some cases. Embree’s and perhaps others’ willingness
to con-
sider that Japanese Americans might represent both a unique
culture
and yet remain direct symbols of a distant Japanese culture was
indi-
rectly influenced by this tendency in American social scientists’
work
on race and culture. John Embree saw no conflict between his
Boasnian
adherence to the historical foundations of culture and his casual
asser-
tion that with Japanese Americans ‘‘recommendations on labor

tions, mess operations, etc., to be accepted, usually had to be
made in
terms of Japanese psychology rather than of prosaic labor-
management
relations.’’19 The implementation of Japanese Americans as a
resource
for the study of Japan continued to develop under the auspices
of Em-
bree and anthropologist Alexander Leighton, the very first
analyst in-
stalled at one of the camps. When unrest broke out in the
Poston, Ari-
zona, camp in 1942, it was decided that cultural anthropologists
might
be useful in resolving the di¤erences between camp
administrators
and camp residents.20 Thus, Embree’s approach to the so-called
prob-
lem of Japanese American status was shaped by his
unselfconscious
application of Boas’s earlier arguments about racial di¤erences.
Yet Embree, and Alexander Leighton in particular, were also
com-
pelled by the work of those social scientists who followed in
Boas’s
wake to develop new theories that further explained the social
and cul-
tural origins of interracial contact and also suggested how
solutions to
21. the problem might be achieved. Chief among these problems
was the
question of the future role of Asian immigrants in American
society.
In a recent work, historian Henry Yu points out that ‘‘the
‘oriental prob-
lem’ in the 1920s created a set of ideas that structured the way
that
Asians were understood and the way they were given a
meaningful
place in American society.’’21 Robert Park was the most
influential pro-
ponent of ‘‘the oriental problem,’’ which he perceived as a
prob-
lem of assimilation because ‘‘the ‘oriental’ in America was still
an ex-
otic oddity, foreign and seemingly unassimilated.’’22 According
to Yu,
Park theorized that such ‘‘an enormous cultural distance
separated
Western culture from ‘Oriental’ culture’’ that the universal
cycle of
contact, competition, conflict, accommodation, and assimilation
was
not allowed to develop.23 Thus, the greatest task facing the
social scien-
tist was to determine how to move the ‘‘oriental’’ Other further
along
in the cycle so that he or she might achieve full assimilation.
More than any other single camp analyst, Alexander Leighton
was
vital to enunciating a set of strategies for dealing with the
perceived
‘‘assimilation problem’’ of the Japanese American subject. He
spent
22. fifteen months, from June 1942 to September 1943, at Poston, a
camp
in Arizona in the Colorado River Valley, which was the first to
use social
scientists to observe Japanese American camp behavior. Not
surpris-
ingly, Leighton was also among the first to suggest publicly that
ana-
lysts’ experiences in the camps should play a major role in the
nation’s
administration of the postwar reconstruction of Asia. John
Embree, as

head of the wra, viewed Leighton’s anthropological project at
Poston
as the model for the installation of community analysts in every
one of
the camps housing evacuated Japanese Americans.24 Because
commu-
nity analysis in the camps hinged on the presumption of the
direct use-
fulness of Japanese Americans as informants on Japanese
culture, Em-
bree and Leighton were often compelled to focus on the
similarities
between internment and the expected postwar dislocation of
Japa-
23. nese citizens. Any conclusions they might draw about the
cultural dif-
ferences that Park had theorized as preventing Asian
Americans’ as-
similation in America had to be applicable to the occupation
e¤ort in
postwar Japan. Although camp analysts did not in practice
mistake Jap-
anese Americans for Japanese, in theory they did rely from the
start on
viewing the government’s administration of Japanese American
dis-
placement as a direct analogue for the military’s later
occupation of Ja-
pan. As a result of this reliance, the anthropologists’
observations and
opinions regarding the administration of internment were later
quite
influential in developing and confirming theories of the best
way to
manage Japanese di¤erences and, as a ‘‘natural’’ extension, the
best
means of restructuring Japanese American subjectivity to
achieve
Park’s final stage of assimilation.
In hindsight, the disastrous e¤ects of such a fundamental
oversight
seem glaring, and it is important to recall that these
ramifications were
barely considered in the first public description of the camp
analysis
project and its aims. Although the project may now appear a
rather ob-
vious instance of social engineering, one that seems stamped
with the
24. imperialism of an earlier age, Leighton—perhaps also reflecting
impe-
rialist rationalizations—believed his work would ultimately
achieve
the liberation of his subjects. In July 1942, Leighton published
an essay
titled ‘‘Training Social Scientists for Post-War Conditions,’’
just as he
was assuming his position at Poston. In this work, he outlines
an opti-
mistic plan for the use of social scientists during and after the
war, in
which he cites the invaluable benefits of the ‘‘practical
application’’ of
their results.25 After providing a synopsis of his experiences in
‘‘an Es-
kimo village in Alaska’’ as an example of how the social
scientist could
be ‘‘both an observer and a social doctor to a community’’ and
utilize
the information gathered toward ‘‘the development of better
living and
better relations,’’ he suggests that ‘‘there are many similar
opportuni-
ties in the United States under the widespread administration of
the
Oªce of Indian A¤airs’’ (27–29). His statement refers to the

PREFACE
I
50. nformation governance (IG) has emerged as a key concern for
business executives
and managers in today’s environment of Big Data, increasing
information risks, co-
lossal leaks, and greater compliance and legal demands. But few
seem to have a clear
understanding of what IG is; that is, how you defi ne what it is
and is not, and how to
implement it. This book clarifi es and codifi es these defi
nitions and provides key in-
sights as to how to implement and gain value from IG programs.
Based on exhaustive
research, and with the contributions of a number of industry
pioneers and experts, this
book lays out IG as a complete discipline in and of itself for the
fi rst time.
IG is a super-discipline that includes components of several
key fi elds: law, records
management, information technology (IT), risk management,
privacy and security,
and business operations. This unique blend calls for a new breed
of information pro-
fessional who is competent across these established and quite
51. complex fi elds. Training
and education are key to IG success, and this book provides the
essential underpinning
for organizations to train a new generation of IG professionals.
Those who are practicing professionals in the component fi
elds of IG will fi nd
the book useful in expanding their knowledge from traditional fi
elds to the emerging
tenets of IG. Attorneys, records and compliance managers, risk
managers, IT manag-
ers, and security and privacy professionals will fi nd this book a
particularly valuable
resource.
The book strives to offer clear IG concepts, actionable
strategies, and proven best
practices in an understandable and digestible way; a concerted
effort was made to
simplify language and to offer examples. There are summaries
of key points through-
out and at the end of each chapter to help the reader retain
major points. The text
is organized into fi ve parts: (1) Information Governance
Concepts, Defi nitions, and
52. Principles; (2) IG Risk Assessment and Strategic Planning; (3)
IG Key Impact Areas;
(4) IG for Delivery Platforms; and (5) Long-Term Program
Issues. Also included are
appendices with detailed information on taxonomy and metadata
design and on re-
cords management and privacy legislation.
One thing that is sure is that the complex fi eld of IG is
evolving. It will continue
to change and solidify. But help is here: No other book offers
the kind of compre-
hensive coverage of IG contained within these pages.
Leveraging the critical advice
provided here will smooth your path to understanding and
implementing successful
IG programs.

The Onslaught
of Big Data and
the Information
Governance Imperative
C H A P T E R 1
T
he value of information in business is rising, and business
leaders are more and
more viewing the ability to govern, manage, and harvest
information as critical
to success. Raw data is now being increasingly viewed as an
asset that can be
55. leveraged, just like fi nancial or human capital.1 Some have
called this new age of “Big
Data” the “industrial revolution of data.”
According to the research group Gartner, Inc., Big Data is defi
ned as “high-volume,
high-velocity and high-variety information assets that demand
cost-effective, inno-
vative forms of information processing for enhanced insight and
decision making.” 2
A practical defi nition should also include the idea that the
amount of data—both struc-
tured (in databases) and unstructured (e.g., e-mail, scanned
documents) is so mas-
sive that it cannot be processed using today’s database tools and
analytic software
techniques. 3
In today’s information overload era of Big Data—characterized
by massive growth
in business data volumes and velocity—the ability to distill key
insights from enor-
mous amounts of data is a major business differentiator and
source of sustainable com-
56. petitive advantage. In fact, a recent report by the World
Economic Forum stated that
data is a new asset class and personal data is “the new oil.” 4
And we are generating more
than we can manage effectively with current methods and tools.
The Big Data numbers are overwhelming: Estimates and
projections vary, but it
has been stated that 90 percent of the data existing worldwide
today was created in the
last two years 5 and that every two days more information is
generated than was from
the dawn of civilization until 2003. 6 This trend will
continue: The global market for
Big Data technology and services is projected to grow at a
compound annual rate of
27 percent through 2017, about six times faster than the general
information and com-
munications technology (ICT) market. 7
Many more comparisons and statistics are available, and all
demonstrate the
incredible and continued growth of data.
Certainly, there are new and emerging opportunities arising
57. from the accu-
mulation and analysis of all that data we are busy generating
and collecting. New
enterprises are springing up to capitalize on data mining and
business intelligence
opportunities. The U.S. federal government joined in,
announcing $200 million in
Big Data research programs in 2012.8
4 INFORMATION GOVERNANCE
Big Data values massive accumulation of data, whereas in
business, e-discovery
realities and potential legal liabilities dictate that data be culled
to only that
which has clear business value.
But established organizations, especially larger ones, are being
crushed by this
onslaught of Big Data: It is just too expensive to keep all the
information that is being
generated, and unneeded information is a sort of irrelevant
sludge for decision makers
58. to wade through. They have diffi culty knowing which
information is an accurate and
meaningful “wheat” and which is simply irrelevant “chaff.”
This means they do not
have the precise information they need to base good business
decisions upon.
And all that Big Data piling up has real costs: The burden of
massive stores of
information has increased storage management costs
dramatically, caused overloaded
systems to fail, and increased legal discovery costs. 9 Further,
the longer that data is
kept, the more likely that it will need to be migrated to newer
computing platforms,
driving up conversion costs; and legally, there is the risk that
somewhere in that
mountain of data an organization stores is a piece of
information that represents a
signifi cant legal liability.10
This is where the worlds of Big Data and business collide . For
Big Data proponents,
more data is always better, and there is no perceived downside
to accumulation of mas-
59. sive amounts of data. In the business world, though, the
realities of legal e-discovery
mean the opposite is true. 11 To reduce risk, liability, and
costs, it is critical for unneeded
information to be disposed of in a systematic, methodical, and
“legally defensible” (jus-
tifi able in legal proceedings) way, when it no longer has legal,
regulatory, or business
value. And there also is the high-value benefi t of basing
decisions on better, cleaner
data, which can come about only through rigid, enforced
information governance
(IG) policies that reduce information glut.
Organizations are struggling to reduce and right-size their
information footprint
by discarding superfl uous and redundant data, e-documents,
and information. But the
critical issue is devising policies, methods, and processes and
then deploying information technol-
ogy (IT) to sort through which information is valuable and
which no longer has business value
and can be discarded.
IT, IG, risk, compliance, and legal representatives in
60. organizations have a clear
sense that most of the information stored is unneeded, raises
costs, and poses risks.
According to a survey taken at a recent Compliance,
Governance and Oversight
Counsel summit, respondents estimated that approximately 25
percent of information
stored in organizations has real business value, while 5 percent
must be kept as busi-
ness records and about 1 percent is retained due to a litigation
hold. “This means that
The onslaught of Big Data necessitates that information
governance (IG) be
implemented to discard unneeded data in a legally defensible
way.
THE ONSLAUGHT OF BIG DATA AND THE INFORMATION
GOVERNANCE IMPERATIVE 5
[about] 69 percent of information in most companies has no
business, legal, or regulatory value.
Companies that are able to dispose of this data debris return
61. more profi t to sharehold-
ers, can leverage more of their IT budgets for strategic
investments, and can avoid
excess expense in legal and regulatory response” (emphasis
added). 12
With a smaller information footprint , organizations can more
easily fi nd what they tt
need and derive business value from it.13 They must eliminate
the data debris regularly
and consistently, and to do this, processes and systems must be
in place to cull valuable
information and discard the data debris daily. An IG program
sets the framework to
accomplish this.
The business environment has also underscored the need for
IG. According to
Ted Friedman at Gartner, “The recent global fi nancial crisis
has put information gov-
ernance in the spotlight. . . . [It] is a priority of IT and business
leaders as a result of
various pressures, including regulatory compliance mandates
and the urgent need for
improved decision-making.” 14
62. And IG mastery is critical for executives: Gartner predicts that
by 2016, one in fi ve chief
information offi cers in regulated industries will be fi red from
their jobs for failed IG initiatives. s 15
Defi ning Information Governance
IG is a sort of super discipline that has emerged as a result of
new and tightened legislation
governing businesses, external threats such as hacking and data
breaches, and the recog-
nition that multiple overlapping disciplines were needed to
address today’s information
management challenges in an increasingly regulated and
litigated business environment.16
IG is a subset of corporate governance, and includes key
concepts from re-
cords management, content management, IT and data
governance, information se-
curity, data privacy, risk management, litigation readiness,
regulatory compliance,
long-term digital preservation , and even business intelligence.
This also means
63. that it includes related technology and discipline subcategories,
such as document
management, enterprise search, knowledge management, and
business continuity/
disaster recovery.
Only about one quarter of information organizations are
managing has real
business value.
With a smaller information footprint, it is easier for
organizations to fi nd the
information they need and derive business value from it.
IG is a subset of corporate governance.
6 INFORMATION GOVERNANCE
IG is a sort of superdiscipline that encompasses a variety
of key concepts from
a variety of related disciplines.
Practicing good IG is the essential foundation for building
64. legally defensible
disposition practices to discard unneeded information and to
secure confi dential in-
formation, which may include trade secrets, strategic plans,
price lists, blueprints, or
personally identifi able information (PII) subject to privacy
laws; it provides the basis
for consistent, reliable methods for managing data, e-
documents, and records.
Having trusted and reliable records, reports, data, and databases
enables managers
to make key decisions with …
