The transformation of Japan from hermit kingdom to imperial power happened with breathtaking speed. When American Commodore Perry's "black ships" steamed into Tokyo Bay in the 1850s, they shattered Japan's 250-year isolation with technology that seemed to come "from 200 years in the future." This technological gap created a constitutional crisis that would ultimately topple the Tokugawa Shogunate and usher in the Meiji Restoration of 1868.Jonathan Clements guides us through this pivotal period where Japan found itself facing what one historian calls "an invitation to an alien game" - forced to adopt international norms and institutions they never agreed to. Rather than becoming colonized like China or India, Japan's new leaders determined to become players in this global power game. They systematically studied Western nations, adopting what they perceived as the best elements of each: a German-style army, British naval technology, and aspects of French law.This selective modernization happened against a backdrop of growing militarism and expansionism, particularly toward Korea - strategically described as "the dagger at the heart of Japan." The 1894-95 Sino-Japanese War demonstrated Japan's new capabilities, but the subsequent "Triple Intervention" by Russia, France and Germany (forcing Japan to abandon territorial gains) created a humiliation that would fuel future aggression.Throughout this period, the Japanese government struggled with "gekokujō" - military insubordination where officers initiated "incidents" that expanded Japanese influence without authorization. The assassination of Korea's Queen Min by Japanese agents exemplifies this dangerous pattern where unauthorized actions expanded imperial control while undermining civilian government - creating precedents that would ultimately lead Japan toward its catastrophic Pacific War.Whether you're interested in East Asian history, imperial expansion, or the roots of 20th century conflict, this exploration of Japan's rapid transformation reveals how quickly a nation can reinvent itself - for better or worse.You can send a message to the show/feedback by clicking here.

Kia ora,Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news the Americans seem to be making a concerted effort to adopt a stagflation policy. The USD is falling toward a three year low, gold is rising again, as are US benchmark interest rates.But first, the week ahead will feature central bank rate decisions from Canada (expect a hold at 2.75%), the ECB (-25 bps to 2.15%) and India (-25 bps to 5.75%). And the week will end with the US non-farm payrolls report (+130,000 and extending the ho-hum trend).But the week will be dominated by factory and service sector PMIs, closely watched for the consequences of trade war activity. More damage came from the US over the weekend with the doubling of steel tariffs, from 25% to 50%. These are certain to make the US steel industry even less competitive globally, embedding higher producer costs for American factories and higher prices for its customers.We can see that from the latest ISM factory PMI for May, where a small contraction is now taking place, and the cost pressures are still very high. The final S&P/Markit May factory PMI recorded the most cost pressure since 2022, but a tiny expansion in this one.China released its official PMIs over the weekend, with the factory version contracting much less, and their services little-changed in a tiny expansion. Inflation pressures aren't evident here. The US trade pressure may be preventing China's economy from growing much but it isn't pushing it into a contraction. And so far, Beijing has resisted Trump's request for a phone call with Xi.And there were May PMIs out for Japan (contracting less), Canada,(holding a sharp contraction) Taiwan (contracting less), Korea (small contraction, but stable) Singapore (stable small contraction) and Australia (stable but expanding a bit less) on Monday. So this set isn't yet showing much change, but the trade war does seem to be embedding stagnation. Inflation doesn't seem to be much of a problem here, it is only the US that is getting them both.Stagnation without inflation does allow central banks to try a rate cut remedy - a remedy not available to the Americans.In China they are applying both monetary (lower rates) and fiscal policies (more spending) to stabilise their situation. Beijing is spending big to counter the downward pressure on its economy. As a result, the country's broad fiscal deficit expanded at its quickest clip since 2023 in the first four months of 2025, reaching a -¥2.7 tln (-NZ$630 bln) deficit in the period, almost 60% more than in the same period in 2024.They need all of that because it is pretty clear their real estate sector slump isn't anywhere near over yet, despite all the official help for it.We should also note that it is a holiday in China today, for Dragon Boat Festival.India reported Q1-2025 GDP outcomes, claiming a heady expansion of +7.4% from a year earlier, far better than the +6.7% expected and the +6.4% expansion in Q4-2024. This expansion was led by both the construction sector, and consumer spending.And Canada also reported an expanding economy in Q1-2025, gaining +0.5% in the quarter to be +2.2% higher for the year. Both these indicators of economic activity are better than analysts had expected. Of course these are only of historical interest because they pre-date the tariff-war actions of the US that started in April.Back in the US, the final University of Michigan consumer sentiment survey recovered its early month drop in the second half of the month, ending similar to the April level. The pause in the tariff war and the hope this would ease inflation pressures during the survey period was said to be behind the mood change. Still, this level is very pessimistic, -24% lower than year-ago levels.In Australia, job ad growth has turned into a decline, with the number of job ads dropping -1.2% in May from April, when they fell a downwardly revised -0.3%. Year on year they are down -5.7% although they remained +14% higher than pre-pandemic levels.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.46%, and up +6 bps from Friday. The price of gold will start today at US$3,375/oz, and up +US$86 from yesterday.Oil prices are up +US$2 in the US at just under US$63/bbl and the international Brent price is just under US$65/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at 60.2 USc, a +50 bps rise from yesterday at this time. Against the Aussie we are up +20 bps at just on 92.9 AUc. Against the euro we are up +10 bps at 52.7 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on 68.2 and up +30 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$104,272 and down -0.9% from yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just on +/-1.0%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Korea's brief but significant period as an empire as it moved from the 500-year-old dynastic Joseon monarchy towards modernity. It was in October 1897 that King Gojong declared himself Emperor, seizing his chance when the once-dominant China lost to Japan in the First Sino-Japanese War. The king wanted to have the same status as the neighbouring Russian, Chinese and Japanese Emperors, to shore up a bid for Korean independence and sovereignty when the world's major powers either wanted to open Korea up to trade or to colonise it. The Korean Empire lasted only thirteen years, yet it was a time of great transformation for this state and the whole region with lasting consequences in the next century…With Nuri Kim Associate Professor in Korean Studies at the faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies at the University of Cambridge and Fellow of Wolfson CollegeHolly Stephens Lecturer in Japanese and Korean Studies at the University of EdinburghAnd Derek Kramer Lecturer in Korean Studies at the University of SheffieldProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list:Isabella Bird Bishop, Korea and her Neighbors: A Narrative of Travel, With an Account of the Recent Vicissitudes and Present Position of the Country (first published 1898; Forgotten Books, 2019)Vipan Chandra, Imperialism, Resistance and Reform in Late Nineteenth-Century Korea: Enlightenment and the Independence Club (University of California, Institute of East Asian Studies, 1988)Peter Duus, The Abacus and the Sword: The Japanese Penetration of Korea, 1859-1910 (University of California Press, 1995)Carter J.

Sorry, Harvard, but we're not going to give you billions of taxpayer dollars, no questions asked. The Trump administration is set to eliminate its remaining government contracts with Harvard University, totally over $100 million, reports the New York Times. This comes off the heels of the administration's commitment to also prevent the once prestigious university from enrolling foreign student. The federal government does not have an obligation to blindly give a private university billions of dollars of taxpayer money, just like immigration officials are not forced to automatically give visas to foreign nationals, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “I think the argument from the administration that maybe our right-wing friends are missing is not that the Trump administration doesn't have a right to go in and micromanage. They're just saying, ‘I don't really wanna give Harvard any money. They've got $53 billion. They're private. They're not public institutions. But you know, if they ask us and they want money, then we have to look at why we would give it to them.' “And it's kind of like Mr. Smith coming from Korea or Mr. Jones coming from Sweden. We look at them and we don't really think they add to the Americans. So, we don't have an invitation.'”

S&P futures are pointing to a slightly softer open today, down (0.2%). European equity markets are edging higher in early trades. Asia finished a mixed session with Japan and Korea flat or slightly higher, while Hong Kong and Australia traded lower. Bond markets remain in focus as yields initially rose on reports that Japan's finance ministry might reduce super-long bond issuance after last week's market turmoil. However, the latest JGB 40-year auction was softer than expected with a higher-than-expected accepted yield of 3.135%, the highest since 2007.

The roots of tradition sometimes take hold in unexpected soil. What happens when traditions from France, Korea, and China converge in one practitioner's hands? There's a kind of alchemy in the way knowledge travels—through stories, teachers, and clinical results that raise the question of what is going on here.In this conversation with Jacques MoraMarco, we explore the shape of a career that's spanned over five decades. From his early exposure to French-Vietnamese and Korean teachings, to his role in building acupuncture education in the U.S.—Jacques has carried multiple lineages while helping to shape what Chinese medicine looks like in the modern clinic.Listen into this discussion as we talk about the perspective of different streams of practice, the shift from apprenticeship to formal schooling, and how European and Korean influences still echo in his work.

Verse 79 is TTC's main place where Lao Tzu frames “score-keeping” with “faith-keeping”. So in this verse we look at the various ways we injure ourselves (and our futures) with strict accounting of alleged slights we see someone giving us. The resentments build until one of two things happen: A complete breakdown of communication, or, the moment when someone stops practicing keeping-score and instead practices keeping-faith.

Taiwans Zukunft ist mehr als ungewiss. China hat gedroht, die Insel an sein Reich anzuschliessen, wenn nötig militärisch. Käme es zu einem Anschluss oder gar zu einem Krieg, hätte dies fatale Folgen für uns alle. Einst kämpften auf dem chinesischen Festland der kommunistische Mao Zedong und der damalige Präsident Chiang Kai-shek in einem Bürgerkrieg gegeneinander. Der unterlegene Chiang Kai-shek floh im Jahr 1949 mit rund zwei Millionen Menschen auf die Insel Taiwan. Seither gibt es zwei Länder, die sich als das wahre China betrachten: Taiwan, das sich offiziell als «Republik China» bezeichnet, und die Volksrepublik China. Zuerst war Taiwan das international anerkannte China, dann wurde die Volksrepublik immer mächtiger und verdrängte Taiwan im Jahr 1971 aus den Vereinten Nationen. Für Peking gilt das Ein-China-Prinzip: Jedes Land, das mit China diplomatische Beziehungen führen und Geschäfte machen will, darf Taiwan nicht offiziell als eigenständigen Staat anerkennen. Dies führte dazu, dass Taiwan heute nur noch von dreizehn Ländern offiziell anerkannt wird. Und dies, obwohl es sich seit den Achtzigerjahren zu einem der demokratischsten und liberalsten Länder Asiens entwickelt hat. Spätestens seit dem Ukrainekrieg ist die bedrohliche Lage der Insel in den internationalen Fokus gerückt. Die Angst geht um, der chinesische Präsident Xi Jinping könnte es Putin gleichtun und den Inselstaat angreifen. In mehreren Reden hat er angekündigt, die Vereinigung mit Taiwan auf jeden Fall herbeizuführen, wenn nötig mit militärischen Mitteln. Westliche Politiker verschiedenster Länder bekunden ihre Solidarität und reisen symbolträchtig nach Taiwan. Allen voran sind es die USA, die seit Jahrzehnten als Verbündete Taiwans gelten. Jede Reise wird von immer heftigerem militärischem Säbelrasseln der Chinesen begleitet. In der Pandemie standen in vielen westlichen Ländern, vor allem in der Automobilindustrie, die Fliessbänder still. Der Grund: Chipmangel. Der Welt wurde schlagartig bewusst, wie abhängig sie von internationalen Lieferketten und vor allem von der Chipproduktion in Taiwan ist. Das Land produziert rund 60 Prozent aller weltweiten Halbleiter. Bei den hochklassigen Halbleitern sind es sogar über 90 Prozent. Halbleiter werden auch als das Öl des 21. Jahrhunderts bezeichnet. Würde die Chipproduktion Taiwans gestört, könnte die gesamte digitalisierte Welt um Jahrzehnte zurückgeworfen werden. Mit prägnanten Bildern und im Gespräch mit internationalen Experten vermittelt der Film ein Bild des Landes und der aktuellen Lage. Anhand der politischen Beziehungen der Schweiz zu Taiwan erzählt der Film, wie heikel es für die meisten Länder der Welt ist, mit Taiwan umzugehen, ohne das grosse China zu erzürnen. Der Film zeigt auch, wie gefährlich es für die Welt und deren Wirtschaft wäre, wenn China tatsächlich angreifen würde. Hätte Taiwan eine Chance, sich zu verteidigen? Würden die USA, Japan, Australien und Korea eingreifen und stünde somit der Beginn eines grossen Krieges bevor? Wie wahrscheinlich ist es, dass China tatsächlich ernst macht?

In Part 1, Tom and Daniel embark on a raw and intellectually charged exploration of what's gone wrong with the modern economy, why younger generations are angry, and how technology is accelerating economic inequality.
