Dai Nipponjin (Big Man Japan) is a 2007 mockumentary that veers wildly across multiple forms of realism to incorporate full-blown farce. This paper examines the final scenes of the film to show how comedian Hitoshi Matsumoto’s debut film shifts through mockumentary and CGI kaigu (giant monster) genres to employ a tokusatsu (live-action special effects) coda that highlights Japan’s subservience to foreign powers and the very real threat of a regio…
Defining Regional Climate Leadership
Comparative analysis of national mitigation and adaptation efforts generates transferable climate policy learning, which helps meet global climate policy aspirations to avoid dangerous climate change. This article proposes a novel framework for assessing the contributions of regional climate leadership to such efforts in the Asia Pacific, and operationalizes that framework through comparative analysis of Japanese and Australian initiatives. It ar…
Elevational Distribution of Adult Trees and Seedlings in a Tropical Montane Transect, Southwest China
Montane habitats are characterized by high variation of environmental factors within small geographic ranges, which offers opportunities to explore how forest assemblages respond to changes in environmental conditions. Understanding the distributional transition of adult trees and seedlings will provide insight into the fate of forest biodiversity in response to future climate change. We investigated the elevational distribution of 156 species of…
