Cambridge University Press BORDERLINE JAPAN FOREIGNERS AND FRONTIER CONTROLS IN THE POSTWAR ERA MorrisSuzuki Tessa AUTHOR Jan122012 Paperback
Book SynopsisThis book offers a radical reinterpretation of postwar Japan's policies towards immigrants and foreign residents. Drawing on a wealth of historical material, it shows how the Cold War played a decisive role in shaping Japan's migration controls, shedding light on the origins and dilemmas of migration policy in Japan.Trade Review“Unlike much academic writing, Tessa Morris-Suzuki’s work is almost always clearly written and jargon-free, impeccably researched and, above all, original… Morris-Suzuki’s writing is consistently innovative and thought-provoking. Her new work, Borderline Japan, is no exception…Morris-Suzuki’s book should not only be considered required reading for Japanese Studies scholars and students, but for all Japanese who are unaware of the circumstances and sufferings of non-Japanese, the vast majority of whom wanted and continue to want nothing more than to peacefully work and live in—and travel in and out of—a country they have come to call home.” -Chris Burgess, Tsuda College, Pacific AffairsTable of ContentsIntroduction; 1.

Cambridge University Press Hearings on the Hill
Book SynopsisGood public policy in a democracy relies on efficient and accurate information flows between individuals with firsthand, substantive expertise and elected legislators. While legislators are tasked with the job of making and passing policy, they are politicians and not substantive experts. To make well-informed policy, they must rely on the expertise of others. Hearings on the Hill argues that partisanship and close competition for control of government shape the information that legislators collect, providing opportunities for party leaders and interest groups to control information flows and influence policy. It reveals how legislators strategically use committees, a central institution of Congress, and their hearings for information acquisition and dissemination, ultimately impacting policy development in American democracy. Marshaling extensive new data on hearings and witnesses from 1960 to 2018, this book offers the first comprehensive analysis of how partisan incentives determine how and from whom members of Congress seek information.

Exciting, innovative, timely and, above all, honest in its analysis, this is the new key reference for all students of European integration and disintegration.' Colin Hay, Professor of Political Sciences in the Centre for European Studies and Comparative Politics, Sciences Po, Paris'This exciting new book studies the European Union by incorporating the many challenges that it is facing, in a host of policy-making areas, whether they be the Brexit, politicization of European integration, or the legacies of the migration and financial crises.
