Horserider Theory

The Executive Order 9066, signed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, authorized for land to be established as military zones for the deportation of Japanese Americans into internment camps. The deportation of Japanese Americans was a pusillanimous act ridden by the fear that Japanese American people would act a saboteurs for the Japanese government. Without concrete evidence, innocent lives were led astray solely because of their Japanese ancestry. Japanese Americans were surmised as still remaining undeniably loyal to their ancestral home instead of America, despite that many Japanese Americans were still regarded as “aliens” in the first place. The federal government [at the time] claimed it was merely out of concern for America’s safety

They 're savages with bows and arrows '" (The Last 00:30:24).The Colonel immediately assumes that the Samurai are powerless natives that follow a primitive lifestyle and will be easily crushed by the Imperial Army. Algren, however, is not so sure of this, but Bagley initiates the attack regardless of Algren 's input. The little respect that the Colonel shows for the Samurai demonstrates ethnocentrism because the Colonel believes the Americans are superior to the Japanese. During the 18th and 19th century imperializing nations ' only concern was profit, so they exploited and manipulated the less modernized countries.

This paper focuses on the failure of diplomatic decisions made by Japan that is national in nature most particularly when they chose to fight in the midst of an embargo made by the American government. The attack of Japan against Pearl Harbor is a result of an erratic, egoistic and irrational behavior blinding the Japanese Military Personnel and Officials of the destructive outcome of the World War 2 and a lack of diplomatic strategies that misled the communication between USA and

Conquering all that land? They would not have been appeased, they would have been warned or attacked, because WW1 never happened, so people weren’t desperate to avoid

But with North Korea in such close proximity to Japan, along with their constant harassment, especially in the form of testing nuclear missiles, it is no surprise the Japanese people are starting to lean towards a nationalistic government, calling for the trepushing for a stronger military like the ones from the Japanese empire during World War II. Prime Minister Abe, who also

However, a lesser known fact about Kim Jong Un is that his now-dead mother, Ko Young Hee, was born in Japan and is believed to come from a Korean-Japanese background, which would make her son’s own heritage “impure” therefore slotting him into the lowest songbun class . Seeing that the sanctity of Baekdu bloodline is paramount to the legitimacy of power in North Korea, Kim Jong Un had to be extremely careful since he still had a half-brother that could challenge his right to the throne, Kim Jong Nam. This begs the question: so, why then, was Kim Jong Nam killed? The answer was quite clear.

When the internment order first came out, citizen Fred Korematsu was arrested for not complying with the order for those of Japanese descent to report to camps (E). He then sued based on fact that he as an American citizen had the right to live where he wanted. Unfortunately, he lost his case in a 6-3 Supreme Court decision, stating that during wartime such measures were necessary to ensure national safety (E). Beside Korematsu, many wanted to demonstrate their loyalty as citizens of the United States by joining the military, however, they were barred from service (C). It was not until 1943 that the recruitment of Japanese Americans, specifically the Nisei or the American citizens, began (C).

Event and Process in the Founding of Japan: The Horserider Theory in Archeological Perspective was published by Walter Edwards in the journal of Japanese studies. Edwards mentions that problems of the Horserider theory were published by western and Japanese historians. Horserider theory was published by Egami Namio that considered horseriding people standed Yamato court because of their conquest or collaboration with an original court. The reaction of Japanese societies were negative both historians and archeologists because Egami's idea was inconsistent. Gari Ledyard published an advanced version of the horserider theory based on historical background in Northern Asia.

Since Asian Americans constantly had their basic human rights stripped, they could not assimilate in America. One of the fundamental rights of American citizens, is the right to a trial. The author of the article writes, “Many Issei men were sent to federal prison without trials or evidence,” a clear violation of rights. Additionally, regarding discrimination, the article states, “They [Japanese immigrants] immediately began to encounter blatant discrimination and exploitation from employers and neighbors, a recurring theme in the novel. Ultimately, this article will strongly support my second claim that Asian Americans had their rights stripped, barring them from

The brutality of the Japanese army towards non-Japanese civilians had its roots in the Japanese nation’s high sense of nationalism and belief of the superiority of their race. Foreign people were seen as less honorable; thus the Japanese government neglected to establish regulations on the proper treatment of foreign civilians during war. This in turn gave Japanese soldiers freedom to treat citizens of Japanese-conquered nations however the saw fit, leading to brutality, disrespect towards human rights, and

During his speech, President Roosevelt made it seem like the Japanese just attacked us out of nowhere but really we provoked it. Japan tried to suggest ideas for compromise between itself and the United States,” but “The U.S did not agree.” After this, Japan tried to make another attempt

Korematsu also pressed that this was an act of racial discrimination in that military leaders were displaying racist motivations against Japanese Americans, and the Fourteenth Amendment guaranteed him equal protection as an American-born citizen despite his cultural background. The Supreme Court rebutted his claims, stating that there was not enough time to conduct a trail or hearing for each Japanese American and the need to protect our nation against espionage outweighed Korematsu 's

Japan didn’t open to foreigners until the mid-19th century. Japan quickly realized the situation and began to modernize and westernize as fast as possible. Japan wanted to be strong enough to resist domination of western imperialists who wanted Japan for their own. Japan also wanted to become the strongest Asian country. Japan’s tactics of rapid modernization succeeded, and kept the country and government independent of foreign control.

Considering the conflicts with Asia, the attack on Pearl Harbor was not surprising. The United States provoked the Japanese into doing the attack because of an embargo. Petroleum and metal were two resources that Japan did not have enough of. The United States received knowledge that Japan wanted to attack but just didn’t get to the issue in time. Japan was very dependent on the Americans, the two met on two different occasions to try and settle the dispute, but neither of them were willing to compromise.

Japan’s total control over Korea took many turns as numerous parts of the country quickly became ‘Japanized.’ Before the annexation, the Korean State did not have accurate information on farming land, having no idea if it was being farmed or being owned by someone. As the Japanese came and created new guidelines, situations changed for both landlords and tenant farmers. Produced crops were bought by the Japanese and Korean peasants did not earn any wages. The Japanese also established policies that controlled the properties, productions, and even people.
