En este artículo se parte del argumento de que en el manga X -creado por el colectivo clamp en 1992, publicado en México entre 2003 y 2005 por el Grupo Editorial Vid- la representación visual de ...Tokio en desastre tiene concordancia con una estética posmoderna que se vale de dos elementos entremezclados: referentes religiosos y la cultura visual del desastre propia de Japón. Este trabajo propone un análisis de la imagen inserto en el paradigma inductivo de inferencias indiciales elaborado por Carlo Ginzburg y Geovanni Levi y está sustentado en las siguientes categorías teóricas: la imagen de la ciudad, de Kevin Lynch, la cultura visual del desastre japonés, de Gennifer Weisenfeld, y la teoría de la posmodernidad formulada por Gianni Vattimo. Se infiere como resultado que en la construcción de la ciudad apocalíptica de este manga se observa la puja entre elementos tradicionales y modernos, que se mezclan a partir de puntos de convergencia, para finalizar con el triunfo de lo religioso y la caída de la estructura moderna.
The architectural magazine “Shikoku Kenchiku ” was published in Takamatsu, Kagawa Prefecture, from June 1958 to around 1966. An architectural photographer Tokio Ueno edited and published the ...magazine. Not only architects and local historians from the Shikoku region, such as Tadashi Yamamoto and Masatsune Matsumura, but also Kenzo Tange and Yuichiro Kojiro from Tokyo contributed to the magazine. The magazine featured folk houses and public facilities that did not appear in magazines published in metropolises, such as Tokyo and Osaka at the time. The articles in “Shikoku Kenchiku ” indicate that architects in the Shikoku region recognized the importance of local context.

Los denominados juicios de Tokio y de Nuremberg, montados para juzgar los crímenes cometidos durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, serían el inicio de la justicia penal internacional bajo el sistema de ...la ONU. A partir de ellos y con la adopción del Estatuto de Roma en 1998 que crea la Corte Penal Internacional, aquel sistema tendrá un importante desarrollo pero, hasta nuestros días, no ha logrado la universalidad en su jurisdicción ni la unanimidad en su aceptación.
Resumen:
A partir del modelo de animación nipón, con sus consecuentes rasgos y simbolismos y su idiosincrasia cultural, se llevará a cabo una investigación sobre el poder que la ciudad impone en la ...narrativa cinematográfica animada. Se abordará desde la exposición de un análisis principalmente cualitativo partiendo de un método de estudio del contenido de dos conceptos: post-apocalíptico y cibersociedad en la película Metrópolis (Metropolis, Rintaro, 2001). La ciudad, como personaje principal del relato, permitirá examinar los conceptos visuales, estéticos y temáticos que definen y constituyen el film. El estudio del caso que representa la influencia de la metrópolis futurista y la ciudad tecnologizada en el cine de animación japonés somete al largometraje seleccionado a un procedimiento de referencias narrativas y visuales que, transcurridas dos décadas desde su estreno, lo ha posicionado como uno de los principales productos anime de exploración cinematográfica indispensable en el avance de la cultura popular cinematográfica.
Antecedentes: La colecistitis aguda litiásica (CA) es una de las urgencias quirúrgicas más frecuentes en nuestro medio. La colecistectomía laparoscópica se considera el tratamiento de elección, ...aunque sigue sin ser una realidad su práctica generalizada. Objetivo: Analizar la aplicación de las Guías de Tokio en el manejo de la CA y determinar la influencia de la gravedad en el manejo y el pronóstico. Método: Estudio prospectivo, observacional, de pacientes con diagnóstico primario de CA entre 2010 y 2015. Criterios de exclusión: recidiva de CA, CA como diagnóstico secundario, CA alitiásica u otra patología biliar concomitante. Se ha clasificado la gravedad según las Guías de Tokio de 2013. Resultados: Se incluyen 998 CA: 338 (33.9%) leves, 567 (56.8%) moderadas y 93 (9.3%) graves. Se operaron 582 pacientes (58.3%), y posteriormente 15 precisaron rescate. Complicaciones posoperatorias Dindo-Clavien ≥ 12,6%: CA leve 3,6%, CA moderada 12,2%, CA grave 49% (p < 0.001). Mortalidad global 2%: CA leve 0%, CA moderada 0.5%, CA grave 18% (p < 0.001). Conclusión: La colecistectomía laparoscópica sigue siendo el tratamiento de elección para la CA leve y moderada. En pacientes con CA grave debe valorarse el riesgo-beneficio de la cirugía, dadas las complicaciones y la mortalidad asociadas.
This classic work chronicles how New York, London, and Tokyo became command centers for the global economy and in the process underwent a series of massive and parallel changes. What distinguishes ...Sassen's theoretical framework is the emphasis on the formation of cross-border dynamics through which these cities and the growing number of other global cities begin to form strategic transnational networks. All the core data in this new edition have been updated, while the preface and epilogue discuss the relevant trends in globalization since the book originally came out in 1991.
Reflecting on recent trends in the international labor force, this study investigates and compares organizational expatriates (OEs), who are dispatched by their companies to international posts, with ...self-initiated expatriates (SIEs), who by their own volition move and work abroad. Findings from a survey of 57 OEs and 124 SIEs in Tokyo show several differences in individual- and job-related factors, cross-cultural adjustment and job satisfaction between OEs and SIEs. More specifically, mediation analyses show SIEs to have higher interaction adjustment because of their longer stay in the host country and higher host-country language proficiency. However, SIEs have lower job satisfaction because they work more often under host-country national supervisors.
Expatriates are often presented in the cross-cultural adjustment literature as a homogeneous, broad population. However, recent research that makes a distinction between organizational expatriates ...(OEs), those who are dispatched by their home companies to international posts, and self-initiated expatriates (SIEs), those who themselves make the decision to live and work abroad, has identified differences between the two groups. The present study compares the cross-cultural adjustment of these two groups of expatriates. Survey results of 179 expatriates in Japan show that SIEs are better adjusted to general aspects of their host country and interactions with host-country nationals than OEs. Suggestions for practice are provided.
This study aimed to examine the impact of a major sporting event, the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, on abnormal returns of Japanese sponsors and Taiwanese Olympic-related stock prices during three different ...periods, including the hosting announcement, the postponement in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the holding as scheduled. Using the event study approach, secondary data were collected to investigate the fluctuation of abnormal returns of official Japanese sponsors and Taiwanese Olympic-related stocks. The empirical evidence showed that Olympics-related news disclosures significantly affected the abnormal returns of official sponsors’ stock prices during both the periods of the hosting announcement and the postponement announcement but not during the period of holding as scheduled. This study also verified that the postponement announcement of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and its holding as scheduled would generate positive and negative spillover effects on the stock market of a non-host country.
This study aimed to explore why urban exodus occurred in Tokyo during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using panel-level data from 203 municipalities, we estimated the impact of epidemic, medical, economic, ...and industrial factors on the movement of people across cities in the Tokyo metropolitan area during the pandemic. We found that fear of infection was one of the main factors driving the urban exodus in Tokyo and that people chose to live in reasonably priced habitable areas during the pandemic. We also found that the population increased when the municipality had an essential sector in which remote work was difficult but decreased when it had an industry in which remote work was relatively feasible. However, medical factors had contrasting effects on out-migration and in-migration in each municipality. Increases in hospitals and medical doctors may not have increased the attractiveness of the city because of the malfunctioning of the healthcare system during the pandemic.
