Explaining Doraemon ’s perduring popularity
Structural analysis of the Japanese anime Doraemon reveals the source of the unimaginable popularity of this children’s cartoon in the paradigmatic structure ‘Doraemon’s gadgets : Nobita’s problems :: Doraemon : Nobita.’ The paradigmatic structure’s minor contradiction shows us that neither Nobita’s childish childhood problems nor the hyper-technology of the future Doraemon pulls from its pouch, as funny as they can be made to seem, matter in thi…
What Doraemon, the Earless Blue Robot Cat from the 22nd Century, Can Teach Us About How Japan's Elderly and Their Human Caregivers Might Live with Emotional Care Robots
While immense literatures examine aging and robots in Japan separately, reality has not yet reached the point where robotic care for the elderly can be examined comprehensively. Disciplining imagination with method, structural analysis of the popular Japanese children's animation series Doraemon, in which a slightly defective blue robot cat sent from the 22nd century becomes the helper and companion to a similarly slightly defective ten-year-old …
He drove forward with a yell
We use Homer and Sun Tzu as a background to better understand and reformulate confrontation, anger and violence in medicine, contrasting an unproductive 'love of war' with a productive 'art of war' or 'art of strategy'. At first glance, it is a paradox that the healing art is not pacific, but riddled with militaristic language and practices. On closer inspection, we find good reasons for this cultural paradox yet regret its presence. Drawing on i…
The Economics of Collusion
An examination of collusive behavior: what it is, why it is profitable, how it is implemented, and how it might be detected. Explicit collusion is an agreement among competitors to suppress rivalry that relies on interfirm communication and/or transfers. Rivalry between competitors erodes profits; the suppression of rivalry through collusion is one avenue by which firms can enhance profits. Many cartels and bidding rings function for years in a s…
Cooperation in Economy and Society
The essays in the book analyze cases of cooperation in a wide range of ethnographic, archaeological and evolutionary settings. Cooperation is examined in situations of market exchange, local and long-distance reciprocity, hierarchical relations, common property and commons access, and cooperatives. Not all of these analyses show stable and long-term results of successful cooperation. The increasing cooperation that is so highly characteristic of …
The death of Hector
Empathy is thought a desirable quality in doctors as a key component of communication skills and professionalism. It is therefore thought desirable to teach it to medical students. Yet empathy is a quality whose essence is difficult to capture but easy to enact. We problematise empathy in an era where empathy has been literalised and instrumentalised, including its measurement. Even if we could agree a universally acceptable definition of empathy…

Improving quality
Reviews of environmental impact assessment (EIA) practice, particularly by industrial proponents, have highlighted common shortfalls. EIA would benefit from more ‘common sense’, which is not very common. For example, issue scoping usually includes too many inconsequential factors, and issues not directly affecting project decisions. Consideration of significance is often vague, misleading or inconsistent. Quality of environmental impact statement…
The place of strategic environmental assessment in the privatised electricity industry
The private sector has given relatively little attention to the emergence of strategic environmental assessment (SEA); even recently privatised utilities, where SEA might be deemed particularly appropriate, and whose activities are likely to fall within the scope of the European Union SEA Directive, have shown less interest than might be expected. However, the global trend towards the privatisation of state-owned enterprises makes the adaptation …
Developing environmental management systems to deliver mitigation and protect the EIA process during follow up
Developmental projects are dynamic in the manner in which proponents react to issues or events arising during the conceptual planning, design or construction phases. The basic challenge of integrating environmental impact assessment (EIA) into an existing environmental management system (EMS) is to provide adequate control while allowing flexibility to cope with site-specific project requirements. Environmental management plans (EMP) are one way …
Application of mitigation and its resolution within environmental impact assessment
Mitigation represents any process, activity or action designed to avoid, reduce or remedy significant adverse environmental effects likely to be caused by a developmental project. In concept it is an integral regulatory procedure within all international interpretations of environmental impact assessment (EIA), and the applicant's inclusion of mitigation has become a material part of the UK planning process. This article seeks to set out the conc…

Bidder Collusion at Forest Service Timber Sales
Allegations of bidder collusion at Forest Service timber sales in the Pacific Northwest were common in the 1970s. Of course, prices may be low for reasons other than collusion. The authors formulate an empirical model that allows for both bidder collusion and supply effects and in which they control for demand conditions. Noncooperative behavior in which a single unit is sold (the standard auction model) is a special case: it is found to be defin…

Posterior Probabilities of the Independence Axiom With Nonexperimental Data (or Buckle Up and Fan Out)
This article addresses the issues associated with the construction of posterior probabilities for violation of the independence axiom of expected utility from nonexperimental data. To illustrate the methodology of analyzing nonexperimental evidence, we consider seat-belt-usage data. We find a posterior probability close to one of an Allais-type paradox in these data. In addition, the evidence is not inconsistent with Machina's Hypothesis II but i…

Collusive Bidder Behavior at Single-Object Second-Price and English Auctions
Models of collusive bidder behavior at single-object second-price and English auctions are provided. The ind ependent private values model is generalized to permit the formulatio n of coalitions and a strategic response by the auctioneer. Cooperati ve strategies are found to be dominant in these models; coalitions of any size are viable, and the payoff to each member increases with th e size of the coalition. In addition, the collusive strategies…

Collective Decision Making in Rural Japan
Harmony, Unanimity, and Collective Decision MakingDescriptions and discussion of group decision making in Japan are now widely available and range across the spectrum of settings from rural society to modern industry and politics, from a variety of historical situations to general statements applied to the whole of Japanese society.These accounts broadly agree, in both description and explanation, that group decision making in Japan promotes unan…

Giving a Gift to the Hamlet
This paper examines the strategic pursuit of family well-being and village status under conditions of overt co-operation and covert competition at the buraku level of social organization through the analysis of a pattern of customary gift-giving that developed after World War II in several neighboring farm hamlets in Aichi Prefecture.1 The custom described here consists of the regular and systematic giving of gifts directly to the hamlet itself b…

Heroes and Hebrews
Methods and results of the structural study of myth and Old Testament source and textual criticism are applied in this analysis of the myth of Moses. The context of the myth is first traced out through the historical circumstances conditioning the myth's textual development, and the major contradiction underlying the myth is identified. The myth is then shown to have served as a model through which the Israelites could resolve their conflicting p…

Effects of Reward Schedule Changes on Children's Speech Fluency
Speech disfluency indices were obtained for 50 young normal-speaking males who told stories about 30 situational pictures under continuous and/or partial (random) reward conditions. Four groups of ten children each received 100% rewards for the first ten responses (Condition I) and either 100%, 75%, 50%, or 25% rewards for the last 20 responses (Condition II). A fifth group of ten children received 50% rewards for the first 20 responses (Conditio…
