Power and Pork: A Japanese Political Life

Power and Pork: A Japanese Political Life Review



Power and Pork: a Japanese political life aims to tell the ‘inside story’ of a Japanese politician—Matsuoka Toshikatsu—one of the more controversial members of Japan’s national Diet. Matsuoka belongs to the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) as a representative of the Lower House constituency of Kumamoto No. 3, one of Japan’s regional electorates. His behaviour has been the subject of much speculation and commentary in the media. The book details Matsuoka’s political stratagems and policy activities as an archetypal ‘traditional’ politician representing farm and rural interests. As an old-style, old-guard LDP Diet member, Matsuoka is the kind of politician that former Prime Minister Koizumi targeted in his attempt to reform his own party and the policymaking process. Matsuoka’s reversal of fortune under Prime Minister Abe with his appointment to the post of Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries raises questions about the durability of Koizumi’s reforms. The scope of the work is contemporary Japanese domestic politics, including electoral processes, zoku influence, pork barrelling and ‘money politics’ as exemplified by one of its key players. Power and Pork gives an account of how Matsuoka has catered to local, sectional and clientele interests in order to build and retain his political power base. One of the most important conclusions of the book is that individual ruling party backbenchers can exercise extraordinary influence over government policy in Japan.

Delicious Beef and Pork recipes

Delicious Beef and Pork recipes Review



The professional way of cooking Beef and Pork has been explained in this eBook.
What to Look For When Buying Pork?

When buying pork, look for cuts with a relatively small amount of fat over the outside and with meat that is firm and a grayish pink color. For best flavor and tenderness, meat should have a small amount of marbling.

Beef

Fresh beef can differ from bright red to cherry-red depending on the amount of exposure to oxygen. A dark plum-red appearance can be an sign that the meat comes from an older animal. The meat should be firm but not dry and should have a smooth and fine texture. The outer layer of fat should be firm and evenly distributed. An oily appearance can be an indication that the meat comes from an older animal.

The meat of a young animal is grayish pink. Generally, the older the animal the darker the meat. The meat and fat should feel firm to the touch and not leave an impression when pressed with a finger. The fat is mostly white to creamy white. An oily appearance is indicative of an older animal.

The 2009-2014 World Outlook for Sweet-Pickled, Dry Salt, and Dry-Cured Pork Made from Purchased Carcasses

The 2009-2014 World Outlook for Sweet-Pickled, Dry Salt, and Dry-Cured Pork Made from Purchased Carcasses Review



This econometric study covers the world outlook for sweet-pickled, dry salt, and dry-cured pork made from purchased carcasses across more than 200 countries. For each year reported, estimates are given for the latent demand, or potential industry earnings (P.I.E.), for the country in question (in millions of U.S. dollars), the percent share the country is of the region and of the globe. These comparative benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a country vis-à-vis others. Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics within each country and across countries, latent demand estimates are created. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level. The study also does not consider short-term cyclicalities that might affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature, taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or products involved. This study does not report actual sales data (which are simply unavailable, in a comparable or consistent manner in virtually all of the 230 countries of the world). This study gives, however, my estimates for the worldwide latent demand, or the P.I.E., for sweet-pickled, dry salt, and dry-cured pork made from purchased carcasses. It also shows how the P.I.E. is divided across the world's regional and national markets. For each country, I also show my estimates of how the P.I.E. grows over time (positive or negative growth). In order to make these estimates, a multi-stage methodology was employed that is often taught in courses on international strategic planning at graduate schools of business.

Plowshares & Pork Barrels: The Political Economy of Agriculture (Independent Studies in Political Economy)

Plowshares & Pork Barrels: The Political Economy of Agriculture (Independent Studies in Political Economy) Review



Agricultural subsidies in grains, cotton, milk, sugar, tobacco, honey, wool, and peanuts are analyzed in this examination of U.S. farm policy. Looking at such programs as food stamps, crop insurance, subsidized credit, trade credit, trade subsidies and import restrictions, conservation, agricultural research, and taxation, this historical perspective argues that these subsidies ultimately redistribute wealth to powerful agricultural interests who use their political clout to advance their economic interests at the expense of the general public. This analysis of government farm programs will appeal to professors and students who study agriculture; people affected by government farm policies; public officials, and businesses affected by agricultural policy such as those in food service, retail, and distribution.

The 2009 Import and Export Market for Frozen Pork in Japan

The 2009 Import and Export Market for Frozen Pork in Japan Review



On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on frozen pork in Japan face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying frozen pork to Japan? How important is Japan compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of frozen pork vary from one country of origin to another in Japan? On the supply side, Japan also exports frozen pork. Which countries receive the most exports from Japan? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers?

This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for frozen pork in Japan. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for frozen pork for those countries serving Japan via exports, or supplying from Japan via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.

Pork Chops and Subway Cars

Pork Chops and Subway Cars Review



Whether taking a leisurely sidewalk tour of his adopted hometown of Taneytown, MD or roaring through the tunnels of the New York City subway system, Richard Daub will make you feel that you are right there with him exploring the everyday America often unseen by those who travel these same paths on a daily basis. In this rambling collection of essays that never fails to see the humor in the world, Daub takes you behind the scenes of an 0 million dollar accounting scandal at a major global corporation where he is simply trying to earn an honest living; goes to his first small town fish fry and visits City Hall to chat with the mayor; attends a seminar hosted by a Biblical doomsday prophet who once dwelled in the caves of Palm Springs and is now warning anyone willing to listen that the apocalypse is near; follows the path of the namesake gang from the 1979 cult film classic 'The Warriors' on the New York City subways from the Bronx to Coney Island, then traces the footsteps of Bob Dylan in search of Woody Guthrie s final residence; pays a local cab driver ten dollars to give him a budget tour of Taneytown, which has only a little more than 5,000 residents and two traffic lights; and scrambles to come up with ,000 cash minutes before his little sister s wedding when she realizes that she has forgotten to pay the limo driver and is threatening to call off the ceremony if he isn t paid before it is scheduled to begin.
