Family and Community Obligations Motivate People to Immigrate—A Case Study from the Republic of the Marshall Islands
A questionnaire survey was conducted in the Marshall Islands among 308 citizens of Majuro in order to analyze the factors that led them to immigrate. Using the results from the questionnaire items that indicate the motivations for emigration as independent variables, we extracted the factors with significantly high correlation coefficients; they suggest that the desire to escape from the many obligations within the family and regional community a…
Understanding African views of China
There are few questions of greater significance in African international relations than China's actions in and engagement with other states. Chinese infrastructure, businesses, and people have blanketed the continent and revolutionized lifestyles, transportation, and political economies. The advantages and detractions of such developments, in turn, have shaped local attitudes. African attitudes towards China, nevertheless, remain largely the subj…
Shifting Policies in Conflict Arenas
Turkish policy towards the Syrian civil war, as operationalized in relation to the implementation of no-fly zones, safe zones or buffer zones, has been the subject of much debate among scholars. As the number of foreign states acting in Syria has steadily increased since the onset of the crisis, Turkish policies have similarly shifted. In order to make sense of Turkey’s actions and reactions in the first five years of the Syrian civil war, this a…
Resettlement Policy in Large Development Projects
Hydropower generation by construction of large dams attracts considerable attention as a feasible renewable energy source to meet the power demand in Asian cities. However, large development projects cause involuntary resettlement. Of the world’s forty to eighty million resettlers, many resettlers have been unable to rebuild their livelihood after relocation and have become impoverished. This book uniquely explores the long-term impacts of displa…
Molar morphology and the expression of C arabelli's trait in 45, X females
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to observe the expression of Carabelli's trait in maxillary first (M1) and second (M2) permanent molars in relation to tooth crown size and cusp number and to consider the role of the shortage of sex chromosome material in these features during tooth crown development. METHODS: The data were derived from dental casts belonging to the KVANTTI Research Project on sex chromosome abnormalities headed by Profe…

Assessing the assessments
Transboundary impact assessment (TIA) has become an important environmental management tool, particularly where a project may have transboundary impacts. With the growing practice of TIA, it becomes important to consider the accuracy of the transboundary impact assessments that are being conducted. If TIA is a planning tool designed to provide a basis for making an informed decision, does it actually provide the necessary information? This paper …
International Water Security
Water is essential for all aspects of life. Managing water is a challenging task, particularly in shared water basins that host more than half of the world's population. This book explores threats and opportunities through the presentation of case studies that analyse the multi-faceted and dynamic nature of the interplay between domestic and international water security. A range of past, on to going and emerging international water disputes from …
Carabelli Traits in the Dental Anthropology
ヒトの上顎大臼歯と第二乳臼歯に見られるカラベリー結節は最もよく知られた歯冠形質のひとつである。この形質に関しては様々な観点から多数の研究が行われてきた。本稿では最近の研究を紹介するとともに,この形質が歯の人類学に与えた多くの課題を3つのキーワード「分布」,「遺伝」,「系統と発生」にしたがって検証した。「分布」の項では形質の基準,集団間の違い,ヨーロッパ人にカラベリー結節が多く見られる理由を検討した。「遺伝」の項ではカラベリー結節の遺伝,左右側の非対称性,性染色体とカラベリー結節,性差について考察した。「系統と発生」の項ではカラベリー結節の系統発生と個体発生,カラベリー結節は大きい歯にみられるのか,に関して検討した。歯の内部構造の研究方法の開発や分子生物学的な研究によりカラベリー結節は多方面からより詳細に研究され,未解決の課題が解明されることであろう
Unique biological affinity of the hanging coffin people in ancient China based on craniometry of two skulls from Yunnan province
A higher density of evidence in terms of both temporal and geographical variation is needed for the understanding of the population history of East/Southeast Asia. We report here two skulls of the hanging coffin people from the ancient Tang dynasty of Yunnan province, China, and compare them with other Neolithic to modern human groups of East/Southeast Asia. The cranial series of the hanging coffin people can be regarded as a single population di…
Perception Gaps among Stakeholders Regarding the WCD Guidelines
Distribution of Tabercle-shaped Incisors in South Pacific Populations
The basal tubercle and its related traits on the basal part of the lingual surface of maxillary central incisors vary in developmental grades. Although a well-developed basal tubercle was observed in fossil humans, much attention to this trait has not been paid in modern humans. We compared five morphological traits on the lingual surface of maxillary incisors among seven Pacific populations. Results showed that the South-Pacific populations exam…
International waters in Southern Africa
Southern Africa is one of the world's most critical regions in terms of the management of shared water resources. This is due to a number of factors including: the large disparity in the availability of water between the relatively wet northern part of the region and the drier south; and the fact that the first transboundary transfer of water occurred in this region, between Lesotho and South Africa. This book examines both the risks and opportun…
