Xでこの本についてつぶやいてしまったが、英語圏のも読んでほしいというcase in pointとして言えるのは、キャロルグラックがすでに神道系の神話だけじゃなくて日本の国の民衆イデオロギーの基礎となった様々な思想について書いたのが40年前ですからね。

Now I am waiting for my copyedits, I am decluttering my folders. This is a copy of the numbers of "foreigners" in Japan in the 1959 national census. Read the "注" (note), which gives the rationale of dividing 7 years olds and 14 years olds.

I am guilty of suggesting that we write together about the 1955 moment for Asian diasporas to my colleagues, Chien Wen and Taomo. It took us more than 2 years writing, rewriting, and another year of getting through peer reviews, but voila!

I open NYT on my short commuter bus ride and this subhead is way too convoluted

My bad. It was in 1920 that 警察航空班 was established in Taiwan, which makes more sense as the British did similar things in Middle East. The detail is in 台湾総督府警察沿革史 I. Still earlier than the 1930s.

Realized that my work gives me opportunities to get to know and hang out with the most thoughtful scholars and awesome people and visit fun places like Hong Kong. I am very lucky.
