Japanese Identity: The Kimono Designs of Miyake, Youth Clothing, and Architecture
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 9 page paper discussing the modern Japanese identity in relation to fashion and architecture. The modern Japanese identity is highly unique in its combination of the traditional and the “unfettered” modern and often mismatched. Examples of this can be found in the fashions of Issey Miyake and his contemporaries, the fashion selections and manipulations of the Japanese youth and modern Japanese architecture. Regardless of the industry however, a high level of craftsmanship, consistent with Japanese tradition, can be found. Miyake took the traditional and customized kimono and fashioned it for the flexible, international and mass produced market while at the same time defying modern day techniques of conforming the clothing to the contour of the body thus allowing the kimono to still be worn by all women of all body shapes; not usually considered in today’s fashion market. The Japanese youths of today also make their clothing distinct from that of Western countries by taking Western fashions and clothing and combining or manipulating the clothing to develop a modern and mismatched style. The clothing although often appearing vintage or aged is actually extremely high priced and carefully planned. Similarly in modern Japanese architecture, elements of the traditional can still be seen in religious areas such as Kyoto whereas modern urban areas such as Toyko have modern buildings which often combine traditional elements with modern elements which appear to be mismatched but are actually well planned and reflect the freedom of craftsmanship of the architect.

[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page research paper examines the history of Japanese immigration from the 1880s to 1924. Japanese immigrants to the US endured racial hostility and legal persecution at the federal, state and local level, as legislation was passed that sanctions the fears and biases of white populations (Mitchell 666).

Japanese Imperialism and Singapore
[ send me this essay ]
This 11 page report
discusses the similarities and differences between the Japanese
“imperialism” or occupation of Singapore and British imperialism
on the island. In Southeast Asia Japanese rule in Singapore was
not so very different than what occurred when French imperialism
governed “Indochina,” the Dutch in Indonesia, or the British rule
in India, Singapore, Hong Kong, or any of its other
“protectorates.” In many ways, the nearly four year occupation of
Singapore by Japan shattered the many assumptions that had been
made over the past century (and more) regarding British authority
and its ability appropriately govern its colonies. Annotated
bibliography lists 7 sources.
