Podcasts about senkaku diaoyu islands

Japan's nationalist right have used the internet to organize offline activism in increasingly visible ways. Jeffrey J. Hall, investigates the role of internet-mediated activism in Japan's ongoing historical and territorial disputes. He explores the emergence of two right-wing activist organizations, Nihon Bunka Channel Sakura and Ganbare Nippon, which have played a significant role in pressure campaigns against Japanese media outlets, campaigns to influence historical memorials, and campaigns to assert Japan's territorial claim to the Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands.  In Japan's Nationalist Right in the Internet Age: Online Media and Grassroots Conservative Activism (Routledge, 2021), Hall analyses how activists maintained cohesion, raised funds, held protests that regularly drew hundreds to thousands of participants, and used fishing boats to land activists on disputed islands. Detailing events that took place between 2004 and 2020, he demonstrates how skilled social actors built cohesive grassroots protest organizations through the creation of shared meaning for their organization and its supporters. A valuable read both for scholars seeking insight into the dynamics surrounding Japan's history disputes and territorial issues, as well as those seeking to compare Japanese right-wing internet activism with its counterparts elsewhere. Jingyi Li is a PhD Candidate in Japanese History at the University of Arizona. She researches about early modern Japan, literati, and commercial publishing. Learn more about your ad choices.

In the 'Flashpoints' article by MIT's M. Taylor Fravel, "Explaining China's Escalation over the Senkaku (Diaoyu) Islands", Taylor examines the conflict between China and Japan in the East China Sea. In this Now podcast, senior editor Alan Alexandroff discusses with Taylor the issue that have raised tensions there but then goes on to explores in some depth with Taylor the many issues in the South China Sea. The tensions in the South China Sea have been in the headlines recently with the award by the Law of the Sea arbitration tribunal (a claim was filed by the Philippines in 2013 against China) that undermined, among other things, the Chinese historical claims identified by the now famous nine-dash line. Though the United States has taken no position over the claims to sovereignty by any of the claimants - China, Taiwan, the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei - the United States has expressed the continuing importance of the freedom of navigation in the South China Sea and the need to peacefully resolve the contending claims. All this is explored in the interview with Taylor.

Worsening Sino-Japan relations centered on the dispute over the Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands is more about domestic Chinese politics and international geo-politics than history. A powerful nationalistic China feels it deserves a China-centric Asia, but the US-Japan alliance constitutes a major obstacle. The islands dispute is provides China with leverage to re-orient Japan's security thinking toward the accommodation of Chinese power as well as to sow discord in the US-Japan alliance. David Arase has authored Buying power: the political economy of Japan's foreign aid (1995), edited three books, and published many articles and book chapters on East Asia focusing mainly on Japan. His last book (co-edited with T. Akaha) The US-Japan alliance: balancing soft and hard power in East Asia (Nissan Institute/Routledge, 2010), won the 2011 Ohira Memorial Foundation (in Tokyo, Japan) Special Prize for work advancing the idea of Pacific community. After teaching at Pomona College for 22 years, he took his present position at the Hopkins-Nanjing Center located at Nanjing University to pursue his interest in studying China and its ongoing rise.

Aerial posturing over disputed territories in the East China Sea has caused concern among the international community. After China declared an air identification zone over the Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands, the US despatched two B-52 bombers in an apparent show of defiance, but has instructed its civilian airlines to respect the zone. In this week’s podcast, Gideon Rachman is joined by Jamil Anderlini, Beijing bureau chief, and Geoff Dyer, US foreign policy correspondent to shed light on the situation See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
