BOOK NEWS PLUS 注目の近刊・新刊書ご案内 www.mhmlimited.co.jp MHM - March 2021 - 【イギリス・アイルランドの文学】 ヴィクトリア朝後期の文脈におけるヴァージニア・ウルフ Behind the Times: Virginia Woolf in Late-Victorian Contexts Corbett, Mary Jean (Cornell U.P.) 2020 : 11 324 p. Hardback 9781501752469 US$48.95 Exploring the connections between Woolf's immediate and extended family and the broader contexts of late-Victorian literary and political culture, Corbett emphasizes the ongoing significance of the previous generation's concerns and controversies to Woolf's considerable achievements. Behind the Times rereads and revises Woolf's creative works, politics, and criticism in relation to women writers including the New Woman novelist Sarah Grand, the novelist and playwright, Lucy Clifford; the novelist and anti-suffragist, Mary Augusta Ward. It explores Woolf's attitudes to late-Victorian women's philanthropy, the social purity movement, and women's suffrage. 【日本文学・日本語】 現代日本文学の目覚め The Awakening of Modern Japanese Fiction: Path Literature and an Interpretation of Buddhism Ama, Michihiro (State U. of New York) 2021 : 02 354 p. Hardback 9781438481418 US$95.00 The Awakening of Modern Japanese Fiction is the first book to treat the literary practices of certain major modern Japanese writers as Buddhist practices, and to read their work as Buddhist literature. Its distinctive contribution is its focus on modern literature and, importantly, modern Buddhism, which Michihiro Ama presents both as existing in continuity with the historical Buddhist tradition and as having unique features of its own. Ama corrects the dominant perception in which the Christian practice of confession has been accepted as the primary informing source of modern Japanese prose literature, arguing instead that the practice has always been a part of Shin Buddhist culture. Focusing on personal fiction, this volume explores the works of literary figures and Buddhist priests who, challenged by the modern development of Japan, turned to Buddhism in a variety of ways and used literature as a vehicle for transforming their sense of selfhood. Writers discussed include Natsume Sōseki, Tayama Katai, Shiga Naoya, Kiyozawa Manshi, and Akegarasu Haya. 【日本文学・日本語】 20 世紀初めの日本文学のモダニズム Disruptions of Daily Life: Japanese Literary Modernism in the World Mitchell, Arthur M. Studies of the Weatherhead East Asian Institute, Columbia University (Cornell East Asia) 2020 : 10 276 p. Hardback 9781501752919 US$55.00 Disruptions of Daily Life explores the mass media landscape of early twentieth century in order to uncover the subversive societal impact of four major Japanese authors: Tanizaki Jun'ichirō, Yokomitsu Riichi, Kawabata Yasunari, and Hirabayashi Taiko. Arthur Mitchell examines this literature against global realities through a modernist lens, studying an alternative modernism that challenges the Western European model. -1-

(ed.) Psychology of Language Learning and Teaching (Multilingual Matters) 2021 : 03 304 p. Hardback 9781788924290 £119.95 Paperback 9781788924283 £39.95 This book brings together a diverse range of empirical chapters spanning various contexts and educational levels which explore the psychology of teaching and learning a subject through a second or other language. The chapters discuss both the psychological stressors and strains for learners and teachers, as well as the benefits and joys of being involved in such programmes. The studies encompass a range of areas, such as Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL), Foreign Language Medium of Instruction (FMI), bilingual education and other related approaches to integrating content and language. They feature a variety of psychological constructs, including identity, self-confidence, motivation, self-concept, teacher and learner beliefs, affect, anxiety, stress, mindsets, attributions and well-being, from the perspectives of both teachers and learners. 【音楽】 ラウトレッジ版アジアの音楽ハンドブック Routledge Handbook of Asian Music: Cultural Intersections Lee, Tong Soon (ed.) (Routledge) 2021 : 04 400 p. Hardback 9780415830669 £190.00 The Routledge Handbook of Asian Music: Cultural Intersections introduces Asian music as a way to ask questions about what happens when cultures converge and how readers may evaluate cultural junctures through expressive forms. The volume’s thirteen original chapters cover musical practices in historical and modern contexts from Central Asia, East Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia, including art music traditions, folk music and composition, religious and ritual music, as well as popular music. These chapters showcase the diversity of Asian music, requiring readers to constantly reconsider their understanding of this vibrant and complex area. 【スポーツ・娯楽】 戦後日本のパラリンピックと障がい者スポーツの歴史 More Than Medals: A History of the Paralympics and Disability Sports in Postwar Japan Frost, Dennis J. (Cornell U.P.) 2021 : 02 320 p. Hardback 9781501753084 US$39.95 How does a small provincial city in southern Japan become the site of a world-famous wheelchair marathon that has been attracting the best international athletes since 1981? In More Than Medals, Dennis J. Frost answers this question and addresses the histories of individuals, institutions, and events - the 1964 Paralympics, the FESPIC Games, the Ōita International Wheelchair Marathon, the Nagano Winter Paralympics, and the 2021 Tokyo Summer Games that played important roles in the development of disability sports in Japan. Sporting events in the postwar era, Frost shows, have repeatedly served as forums for addressing the concerns of individuals with disabilities. More Than Medals provides new insights on the cultural and historical nature of disability and demonstrates how sporting events have challenged some stigmas associated with disability, while reinforcing or generating others. -2-
【経済学全般・経済体制論】 資本主義を越えて Beyond Capitalism: New Social Architectures Dowbor, Ladislau (Cambridge Scholars) 2021 : 03 130 p. Hardback 9781527563544 £58.99 This book is about systemic change in what we consider as capitalism. Far beyond qualifications such as Industry 4.0, the view presented here is that the very structures of capitalism are currently being displaced, and that the present digital revolution is as deep in its impact as the industrial revolution was when it emerged from the agricultural age. Another mode of production is being built, and we are facing a transformation of labor relations, surplus-value extraction, means of production, the role of money and credit, the concept of national borders, and social relations. Rather than lining up what is changing in the industrial capitalism we know, this book studies the new system that is being born, as a broader look at this is necessary due to the present convergence of environmental catastrophe, explosive inequality, global financial chaos, and erosion of democracy. 【マクロ経済学・経済政策・経済発展】 ラウトレッジ版アジアのディアスポラと発展ハンドブック Routledge Handbook of Asian Diaspora and Development Sahoo, Ajaya K. (ed.) (Routledge) 2021 : 03 368 p. Hardback 9780367371272 £190.00 This handbook offers an analysis of Asian diaspora and development, and explores the role that immigrants living within diasporic and transnational communities play in the development of their host countries and their homeland. Bringing together an array of interdisciplinary scholars from across the world, the handbook is divided into the following sections: Development Potential of Asian Diasporas / Diaspora, Homeland, and Development / Gender, Generation, and Identities / Soft Power, Mobilization, and Development / Media, Culture, and Representations. 【産業(農業・工業・サービス業)】 オーバーツーリズム Overtourism: Lessons for a Better Future Honey, Martha & Frenkiel, Kelsey (ed.) (Island Pr.) 2021 : 05 424 p. Paperback 9781642830767 US$37.00 Before COVID-19 hit, the biggest problem in the world of travel was overtourism. Crowds threatened to spoil natural environments and make daily life unbearable for residents of popular travel destinations. Then, seemingly overnight, tourism nearly ceased. Yet there is no question that travel will resume; the only question is, when it does, what will it look like? Will we return to a world of overrun monuments, littered beaches, and gridlocked city streets? Or can we do things differently this time? Overtourism: Lessons for a Better Future charts a path toward tourism that is not only sustainable but regenerative for the places we love and the people who live there. Bringing together tourism officials, city council members, travel journalists, consultants, scholars, and trade association members, this practical book explores overcrowding from a variety of perspectives. 【産業(農業・工業・サービス業)】 ツーリズム・土地の収奪・立ち退き:感じのいい産業のダークサイド Tourism, Land Grabs and Displacement: The Darker Side of the Feel-Good Industry Neef, Andreas Routledge Studies in Global Land and Resource Grabbing (Routledge) 2021 : 05 234 p. Hardback 9780367356262 £120.00 Tourism is often presented as a peaceful and benevolent sector that brings people from different cultural backgrounds together and contributes to employment, poverty alleviation, and global sustainable development. This book sheds light on the lesser known and much darker side of tourism as it unfolds in the Global South. While there is no doubt that tourism has been an engine of economic growth for many so-called developing countries, this has often come at the cost of widespread dispossession and displacement of Indigenous and non-indigenous communities. In many countries of the Global South, tourism development is increasingly prioritised by governments, businesses, international financial institutions and donors over the legitimate land and resource rights of local people. This book examines the actors, drivers, mechanisms, discourses and impacts of tourism- related land grabbing and displacement, drawing on more than thirty case studies from Latin America and the Caribbean, sub-Saharan Africa, South and Southeast Asia, the Middle East and the Southwest Pacific. -3-

(Routledge) 2021 : 06 472 p. Hardback 9780815371489 £190.00 The Routledge Handbook of Race and Ethnicity in Asia introduces theoretical approaches to the study of race, ethnicity and indigeneity in Asia beyond those commonly grounded in the Western experience. The volume’s twenty-eight chapters consider not only the relationship between ethnic or racial minorities and the state, but social relations within and between individual and transnational communities. These shape not only the contours of governance, but also the means by which knowledge of national identity, ‘self’ and ‘other’ have been constructed and reconstructed over time. Divided into four sections, it provides holistic and comparative coverage of South, South East, and East Asia, as well as Australasia and Oceania; an area that extends from Pakistan in the West to Hawai’i in the East. 【社会問題・社会福祉・社会保障】 新自由主義下の日本で変わる働き方と役割 Reworking Japan: Changing Men at Work and Play under Neoliberalism Gagne, Nana Okura (ILR Pr.) 2021 : 01 306 p. Hardback 9781501753039 US$45.00 Reworking Japan examines how the past several decades of neoliberal economic restructuring and reforms in Japan have reshaped the nation's corporate ideologies, gender ideologies, and subjectivities of individual employees. With Japan's remarkable economic growth since the 1950s, the lifestyles and life courses of "salarymen" came to embody the "New Middle Class" family ideal. As Nana Okura Gagné demonstrates, however, the nearly three decades of economic stagnation since the bursting of the economic bubble in the early 1990s has tarnished this positive image of salarymen. In a sweeping appraisal of recent history, Gagné shows how economic restructuring has reshaped Japanese corporations, workers, and ideals, as well as how Japanese companies and employees have responded to such changes. 【社会問題・社会福祉・社会保障】 マイケル・ルイス著『予兆:ある感染症の物語』 The Premonition: A Pandemic Story Lewis, Michael (W.W. Norton) 2021 : 05 304 p. Hardback 9780393881554 US$17.95 Fortunately, we are still a nation of skeptics. Fortunately, there are those among us who study pandemics and are willing to look unflinchingly at worst-case scenarios. Michael Lewis’s taut and brilliant nonfiction thriller pits a band of medical visionaries against the wall of ignorance that was the official response of the Trump administration to the outbreak of COVID-19. -4-
Critical Studies in Risk and Disaster - Univ. of Penn. Pr. - 災害の時代:都市化するアジアの環境危機を越えて Disastrous Times: Beyond Environmental Crisis in Urbanizing Asia Elinoff, Eli & Vaughan, Tyson (ed.) 2020 : 12 288 p. Hardback 9780812252705 US$59.95 This book explores how people across Asia live through and make sense of the environmental ruptures that now shape the region and asks how we might analyze this moment of disruption and risk. Global environmental shifts such as climate change are usually linked to large-scale practices such as industrialization, urbanization, and global capitalism. Here, in contrast, contributors illustrate how understanding the practical, political, and ethical consequences of living in a moment of planetary change - or intervening in its course - requires engaging with the human-scale actions and specific policies that both shape and respond to such transformations at an everyday level. フクシマの遺産:3.11の観点から Legacies of Fukushima: 3.11 in Context Cleveland, Kyle et al. (ed.) 2021 : 03 344 p. Hardback 9780812252989 US$49.95 The defining disaster of contemporary Japanese history still goes by many different names: The Great East Japan Earthquake; the 2011 Tōhoku Earthquake and Tsunami; the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Disaster; the 3.11 Triple Disaster. Each name represents a struggle to place the disaster on a map and fix a date to a timeline. But within each of these names hides a combination of disasters and legacies that converged on March 11, 2011, before veering away in all directions: to the past, to the future, across a nation, and around the world. Which pathways from the past will continue, which pathways ended with 3.11, and how are these legacies entangled? Legacies of Fukushima places these questions front and center. The authors collected here contextualize 3.11 as a disaster with a long period of premonition and an uncertain future. The volume employs a critical disaster studies approach, and the authors are drawn from the realms of journalism and academia, science policy and citizen science, activism and governance - and they come from East Asia, America, and Europe. 3.11 is a Japanese legacy with global impact, and the authors and their methods reflect this diversity of experience. 【政治理論・思想・イデオロギー】 ポピュリズムを守るために In Defense of Populism: Protest and American Democracy Critchlow, Donald T. (Univ. of Penn. Pr.) 2020 : 11 224 Hardback 9780812252767 US$29.95 Contrary to popular discourse warning about the dangers of populism, Critchlow argues that grassroots activism is essential to party renewal within a democratic system. In Defense of Populism examines movements that influenced Republican, Democratic, and third-party politics - from the Progressives and their influence on Teddy Roosevelt, to New Dealers and FDR, to the civil rights, feminist, and environmental movements and their impact on the Democratic Party, to the Reagan Revolution and the Tea Party. In each case, Critchlow narrates representative biographies of activists, party leaders, and presidents to show how movements become viable calls for reform that get translated into policy positions. 【法律学全般】 現代の憲法 Modern Constitutions Smith, Rogers M. & Beeman, Richard R. (ed.) Democracy, Citizenship, and Constitutionalism (Univ. of Penn. Pr.) 2020 : 08 360 p. Hardback 9780812252347 US$69.95 In the last half century, more than 130 nations have adopted new constitutions, half of those within the last twenty years. These new constitutions are devoted to many of the same goals found in the U.S. Constitution: the rule of law, representative self-government, and protection of rights. But by canvassing constitutional developments at the national and state level in the United States alongside modern constitutions in Eastern and Western Europe, Africa, and Asia, the contributors to Modern Constitutions - all leading scholars of constitutionalism - show that modern constitutions often seek to protect social rights and to establish representative institutions, forms of federalism, and courts charged with constitutional review that depart from or go far beyond the seminal U.S. example. Partly because of their innovations, however, many modern constitutional systems now confront mounting authoritarian pressures that put fundamental commitments to the rule of law in jeopardy. -5-
【国際法・国際組織】 圧力下の立法:国際人道法と内戦 Lawmaking under Pressure: International Humanitarian Law and Internal Armed Conflict Mantilla, Giovanni (Cornell U.P.) 2020 : 12 264 p. Hardback 9781501752582 US$42.95 In Lawmaking under Pressure, Giovanni Mantilla analyzes the origins and development of the international humanitarian treaty rules that now exist to regulate internal armed conflict. Until well into the twentieth century, states allowed atrocious violence as an acceptable product of internal conflict. Why have states created international laws to control internal armed conflict? Why did states compromise their national security by accepting these international humanitarian constraints? Why did they create these rules at improbable moments, as European empires cracked, freedom fighters emerged, and fears of communist rebellion spread? Mantilla explores the global politics and diplomatic dynamics that led to the creation of such laws in 1949 and in the 1970s. 【国際法・国際組織】 EU における法の政治学 Why Noncompliance: The Politics of Law in the European Union Boerzel, Tanja A. (Cornell U.P.) 2021 : 02 282 p. Paperback 9781501753398 US$19.95 Why Noncompliance traces the history of noncompliance within the European Union (EU), focusing on which states continuously do or do not follow EU Law, why, and how that affects the governance in the EU and beyond. In exploring the EU's long and varied history of noncompliance, Tanja A. Börzel takes a close look at the diverse groups of noncompliant states throughout the EU's existence. Why do states that are vocally critical of the EU have a better record of compliance than those that support the EU? Why has noncompliance been declining since the 1990s, even though the EU was adding member-states and numerous laws? Börzel debunks conventional wisdoms in EU compliance research, showing that noncompliance in the EU is not caused by the new Central and Eastern European member states, nor by the Eurosceptic member states. So why do these states take the brunt of Europe's misplaced ire? 【仏教】 宗教帝国の建設 Building a Religious Empire: Tibetan Buddhism, Bureaucracy, and the Rise of the Gelukpa Sullivan, Brenton Encounters with Asia (Univ. of Penn. Pr.) 2020 : 12 304 p. Hardback 9780812252675 US$65.00 The vast majority of monasteries in Tibet and nearly all of the monasteries in Mongolia belong to the Geluk school of Tibetan Buddhism, best known through its symbolic head, the Dalai Lama. Historically, these monasteries were some of the largest in the world, and even today some Geluk monasteries house thousands of monks, both in Tibet and in exile in India. In Building a Religious Empire, Brenton Sullivan examines the school's expansion and consolidation of power along the frontier with China and Mongolia from the mid-seventeenth through the mid- eighteenth centuries to chart how its rise to dominance took shape. 【アジア全般・東アジア研究】 朝鮮におけるイギリスの治外法権 British Extra-territoriality in Korea, 1884-1910: A Comparison with Japan Robertes, Christopher (Renaissance Books) 2021 : 05 256 p. Hardback 9781912961276 £75.00 Filling an important gap in extraterritoriality studies and in the history of Anglo-Korean relations, this benchmark study examines Britain’s exercise of extraterritorial rights in Korea from 1884 until Korea’s formal annexation by Japan in 1910. It shows how the treaty provisions - which provided for Britain’s ideal extra-territorial regime - were influenced by Britain’s considerably greater experience in Japan beginning in 1859. The caseload proved miniscule in the absence of any large British commercial or maritime presence. Nevertheless, it provides an insight into extra-territoriality’s operation outside major commercial centres and ports. Britain’s protection of Chinese interests in Korea in the aftermath of the Sino-Japanese War, 1894-1895 is also covered. -6-
【アジア全般・東アジア研究】 中国 1949 年:革命の年 China 1949: Year of Revolution Hutchings, Graham (Bloomsbury Academic) 2021 : 01 336 p. Hardback 9780755607334 £25.00 China 1949 follows the huge military forces that tramped across the country, the exile of once-powerful leaders and the alarm of the foreign powers watching on. The well-known figures of the Revolution are all here. But so are lesser known military and political leaders along with a host of 'ordinary' Chinese citizens and foreigners caught in the maelstrom. They include the often neglected but crucial role played by the 'Guangxi faction' within Chiang's own regime, the fate of a country woman who fled her village carrying her baby to avoid the fighting, a prominent Shanghai business man and a schoolboy from Nanyang, ordered by his teachers to trek south with his classmates in search of safety. Shadowing both the leaders and the people of China in 1949, Hutchings reveals the lived experiences, aftermath and consequences of this pivotal year -- one in which careers were made and ruined, and popular hopes for a 'new China' contrasted with fears that it would change the country forever. 【アジア全般・東アジア研究】 インドネシアの多様性 Indonesian Pluralities: Islam, Citizenship, and Democracy W. Hefner, Robert & Abidin Bagir, Zainal (ed.) Contending Modernities (U. of Notre Dame Pr.) 2021 : 01 276 p. Hardback 9780268108618 US$100.00 Paperback 9780268108625 US$40.00 In light of its return to electoral democracy from the authoritarianism of the former New Order regime, some analysts have argued that Indonesia offers clear proof of the compatibility of Islam and democracy. Skeptics argue, however, that the growing religious intolerance that has marred the country’s political transition discredits any claim of the country to democratic exemplarity. Based on a twenty-month project carried out in several regions of Indonesia, Indonesian Pluralities: Islam, Citizenship, and Democracy shows that, in assessing the quality and dynamics of democracy and citizenship in Indonesia today, we must examine not only elections and official politics, but also the less formal, yet more pervasive, processes of social recognition at work in this deeply plural society. 【アジア全般・東アジア研究】 朝鮮 1905 - 1945 年 Korea 1905-1945: From Japanese Colonialism to Liberation and Independence Daeyeol, Ku (Renaissance Books) 2021 : 04 576 p. Hardback 9781912961214 £95.00 This important new study by one of Korea’s leading historians focuses on the international relations of colonial Korea - from the Japanese rule of the peninsula and its foreign relations (1905-1945) to the ultimate liberation of the country at the end of the Second World War. In addition, it fills a significant gap - the ‘blank space’ - in Korean diplomatic history. Furthermore, it highlights several other fundamental aspects in the history of modern Korea, such as the historical perception of the policy-making process and the attitudes of both China and Britain which influenced US policy regarding Korea at the end of World War II. 【アジア全般・東アジア研究】 ミャンマーのロヒンギャ族虐殺 Myanmar's Rohingya Genocide: Identity, History and Hate Speech Lee, Ronan (I.B. Tauris) 2021 : 02 320 p. Hardback 9780755602469 £65.00 Paperback 9780755602476 £19.99 The genocide in Myanmar has drawn global attention as Nobel Peace Prize laureate Aung San Suu Kyi appears to be presiding over human rights violations, forced migrations and extra-judicial killings on an enormous scale. This unique study draws on thousands of hours of interviews and testimony from the Rohingya themselves to assess and outline the full scale of the disaster. Casting new light on Rohingya identity, history and culture, this will be an essential contribution to the study of the Rohingya people and to the study of the early stages of genocide. This book adds convincingly to the body of evidence that the government of Myanmar has enabled a genocide in Rakhine State and the surrounding areas. -7-

Hardback 9781501752315 US$115.00 Paperback 9781501753916 US$28.95 Cinema and the Cultural Cold War explores the ways in which postwar Asian cinema was shaped by transnational collaborations and competitions between newly independent and colonial states at the height of Cold War politics. Sangjoon Lee adopts a simultaneously global and regional approach when analyzing the region's film cultures and industries. New economic conditions in the Asian region and shared postwar experiences among the early cinema entrepreneurs were influenced by Cold War politics, US cultural diplomacy, and intensified cultural flows during the 1950s and 1960s. By taking a closer look at the cultural realities of this tumultuous period, Lee comprehensively reconstructs Asian film history in light of the international relationships forged, broken, and re-established as the influence of the non-aligned movement grew across the Cold War. -8-
【博物館研究】 博物館の中の世界:現代博物館学考 Worlds in a Museum: Exploring Contemporary Museology Louvre Abu Dhabi & Ecole du Louvre (ed.) (Leuven U.P.) 2020 : 09 408 p. Paperback 9789462702332 EUR23.58 Held on the occasion of Louvre Abu Dhabi’s first anniversary, the symposium Worlds in a Museum addressed the topic of museums in the era of globalisation, exploring contemporary museology and the preservation and presentation of culture within the context of changing societies. Departing from the historical museum structure inherited from the Enlightenment, leading experts from art, cultural, and academic institutions explore present-day achievements and challenges in the study, display and interpretation of art, history, and artefacts. How are “global” and “local” objects and narratives balanced - particularly in consideration of diverse audiences? How do we foster perspective and multiculturalism while addressing politicised notions of centre and periphery? As they abandon classical canons and categories, how are museums and cultural entities redefining themselves beyond predefined concepts of geography and history? This collection of essays arises from the symposium Worlds in a Museum organised by Louvre Abu Dhabi and École du Louvre. ◇ 表示の円価は本体価格です ◇ 出版時期・価格は変更されることがあります ◇ 御注文の際は ISBN を併せてお知らせください -9- MHM0321/ACA
