In the case of Chinese (though also applicable to other Asian languages), authors should take advantage of current digital technology by using characters in text to identify terms for readers who know Chinese, and only use romanization when they expect readers who do not read Chinese to know how to pronounce a key term. References should not duplicate characters with romanization, because the romanization serves neither the reader of Chinese nor the non-Chinese reader. Tone marks are generally not indicated for Mandarin, but are used for other topolects of Chinese. Romanization is appropriate for terms that are specific to a topolect or dialect. The use of romanization and characters should be guided by what is best for two types of readers: the reader of Chinese who can benefit from seeing the character, and the English reader who does not know Chinese and needs to be able to read key local terms.","PeriodicalId":34948,"journal":{"name":"Asian anthropology","volume":"22 1","pages":"220 - 225"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42732198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This dissertation explores young Chinese vloggers’ practices, identities, and tactics in interaction with the social media platform Bilibili. By conducting a digital ethnography between 2018 and 2022, I argue that young Chinese vloggers tactically construct and perform their online identities to negotiate with norms, aesthetics, and regulations in the wanghong culture and platform economy.","PeriodicalId":34948,"journal":{"name":"Asian anthropology","volume":"22 1","pages":"213 - 216"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46114946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While existing research has not come to a clear conclusion, this study uses an iterative qualitative research design that identifies six dimensions of how to link the two phenomena. Based on anthropological approaches to the topic, I demonstrate how my respondents emphasize the reciprocity of well-being in the process of political action. In Japanese regions characterized by demographic decline and aging, well-being is interpreted primarily as a relational phenomenon whose meaning unfolds against the backdrop of a specifically rural context, but is also one situated in the everyday lives of the interviewees. I perceive well-being as something that is not only linked to the natural landscape in that particular area, but is above all connected to the enjoyment of other people.Keywords: Well-beingpolitical participationrural Japanhappinesscivil society Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author.","PeriodicalId":34948,"journal":{"name":"Asian anthropology","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135643513","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast to short-term outside visitors such as international tourists, they partake in freedoms and privileges that the xenophobic North Korean state seldom grants to foreigners, such as the ability to walk the streets of Pyongyang unaccompanied. They also interact extensively with local Koreans such as the North Korean students who live alongside them in the dormitory, and their teachers at university. However, like other classes of foreigners in North Korea, they too are monitored and presented a propaganda front. Drawing upon interviews with foreigners who studied at Kim Il Sung University, this article utilizes Goffman’s dramaturgical framework to tease out ways in which the closer proximity and longer exposure to North Koreans that North Korea-based foreign students enjoy affords them opportunities to witness dramaturgical failure, thereby affording them glimpses into the North Korean backstage.","PeriodicalId":34948,"journal":{"name":"Asian anthropology","volume":"22 1","pages":"133 - 152"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45687649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Under the lifetime employment system, regular workers have enjoyed the security and stability provided by corporations, and tenshoku used to be rare among regular workers. In the decades after the Japanese economic bubble burst in 1991, tenshoku has become a more common practice in Japan. However, even now, young people’s job-changing behavior is often regarded negatively. What young workers inside the prestigious lifetime employment system think of tenshoku remains underexamined. This qualitative study uses young regular workers’ experiences of tenshoku as a lens to investigate their values. Overall, instead of relying steadfastly on their employers, I find in this study that young workers are actively utilizing tenshoku for better working lives: it is an option that supports their subjective well-being.","PeriodicalId":34948,"journal":{"name":"Asian anthropology","volume":"22 1","pages":"81 - 98"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42178237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The similarity between Ijun and Seichō no Ie can be understood by reference to ethnohistoric context, to international activity, and to flows of information, religious ideology and capital. The philosophy, histories of the founders, ritual and Japanese vocabulary are compared in order to show differences and similarities that reflect two cultural contexts, Ryukyuan and Japanese. The personal history of Ijun’s founder adds strength to the conclusion that Ijun is similar to Seichō no Ie, despite differences attributed to Ryukyuan influence on Ijun. Takayasu’s creation of an international organization makes Ijun into a center that replicates and reverses the center-periphery relation between Japan and Okinawa, while also modeling Seichō no Ie’s international organization.","PeriodicalId":34948,"journal":{"name":"Asian anthropology","volume":"22 1","pages":"116 - 132"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47546639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For service industry professionals’ spontaneity is not a fruitful quality to cultivate to establish oneself. Instead, commitment to customers’ satisfaction and adaptability to their wants, needs and grudges are considered by customers and providers to be paramount qualities of a service professional. Drawing on my ethnography at Japanese-style gay bars in Shinjuku Ni-chōme (Tokyo) and other Japanese urban centers, and from studies on the Japanese self, religious practice and authenticity, I propose in-sincerity as an analytical tool to describe how service professionals orient their practice. At Japanese-style gay bars, in-sincerity represents a strict approach to work involving withdrawing parts of one’s self and concocting subjunctive selves (customized versions of one’s self that occupied an illusive 'as if’ dimension) for customers’ entertainment. The co-creation and reproduction of bar legends at Zenith bar exemplifies the surfacing of these subjunctive selves by inextricably entangling factual information and the imaginary worlds of both service professionals and customers.","PeriodicalId":34948,"journal":{"name":"Asian anthropology","volume":"22 1","pages":"99 - 115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47018973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Instead of examining the experience of chronic illness in isolation, the article considers how webs of evolving relations, tensions, competition, and conflicts among distant and close kin are experienced by the vulnerable and those who try to care for them. These conflicts are shaped by the experience of absence and also in the lives of intimate kin, and often appear in violent form. In navigating these relations, caregivers of those with illnesses develop strategies to maintain communications with wider kinship networks while also shielding the sick from the ramifications of ongoing disputes.","PeriodicalId":34948,"journal":{"name":"Asian anthropology","volume":"22 1","pages":"59 - 75"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42097145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
