Shakes, Quakes and Kokoro no care

Abstract
The 3.11 events in 2011 are historically the most destructive series of natural disasters to have ever hit the island nation of Japan. But while the international media has commended the bravery of survivors and applauded Japanese efforts to provide aid and stimulate the process of recovery in the affected regions, strong criticisms have been voiced that, on the front of mental health, adequate care was not provided. The purpose of this paper is to counter these criticisms by discussing the mental health care measures taken by the Japanese to support the victims of the 3.11 events. By elaborating on the deliberate choices of aid and practitioners, the paper will argue that the post-disaster mental health aid provided by the Japanese was not only appropriate, but also demonstrated a historical and cultural awareness of the disaster context and a commitment to ensuring cultural sensitivity in the provision of aid.

Deng Xiaoping, Dazibao and Dissent: A Critical Analysis of the Xidan Democracy Wall Movement

Abstract
A critical analysis of various misconceptions surrounding the 1978-9 Beijing Xidan Democracy Wall Movement. The narrative of the movement has been skewed by both the Chinese and United States governments and the false story has continued in much of the literature on the movement. In my thesis I attempted to reinterpret the events and motivations behind the movement through the use of primary source and personal interviews with activists Wei Jingsheng and Huang Xiang.
