However, though this anxiety about and discourse around population is thought of as relatively recent phenomenon, government and medical intervention in reproduction and fertility are hardly new in Japan. The "population problem (jinko mondai)" became a buzzword in the country over a century ago, in the 1910s, with a growing call among Japanese social scientists and social reformers to solve what were seen as existential demographic issues. In this book, Sujin Lee traces the trajectory of population discourses in Interwar and Wartime Japan, and positions them as a critical site where competing visions of modernity came into tension. Lee destabilizes the essentialized notions of motherhood and population by dissecting gender norms, modern knowledge, and government practices, each of which played a crucial role in valorizing, regulating, and mobilizing women's maternal bodies and responsibilities in the name of population governance. Bringing a feminist perspective and Foucauldian theory to bear on the history of Japan's wartime scientific fascism, Lee shows how anxieties over demographics have undergirded justifications for ethno-nationalism and racism, colonialism and imperialism, and gender segregation for much of Japan's modern history"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aFertility, Human$xPolitical aspects$zJapan$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aBirth control$xPolitical aspects$zJapan$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMotherhood$xPolitical aspects$zJapan$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aBiopolitics$zJapan$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aJapan$xPopulation policy 615 0$aFertility, Human$xPolitical aspects$xHistory 615 0$aBirth control$xPolitical aspects$xHistory 615 0$aMotherhood$xPolitical aspects$xHistory 615 0$aBiopolitics$xHistory 676 $a304.6320952 686 $aMS 4100$qSEPA$2rvk 700 $aLee$b Sujin$c(Professor of Pacific and Asia studies),$01993464 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911092572903321 996 $aWombs of empire$94772136 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03750oam 2200541I 450 001 9911142086003321 005 20251117111643.0 010 $a9789004361133 010 $a9004361138 024 7 $a10.1163/9789004361133 035 $a(CKB)4100000004036804 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5449671 035 $a(OCoLC)1043913730 035 $a(nllekb)BRILL9789004361133 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000004036804 100 $a20180709d2018 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aCorpora and lexis /$fedited by Sebastian Hoffmann, Andrea Sand, Sabine Arndt-Lappe, Lisa Marie Dillmann 210 1$aLeiden ;$aBoston :$cBrill,$d2018. 215 $a1 online resource (322 pages) 225 0 $aLanguage and computers: studies in digital linguistics ;$vv. 81 300 $aBased on proceedings of the 36th ICAME Conference, held 27 to 31 May 2015, at the University of Trier. 311 08$a9789004361126 311 08$a900436112X 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $tFront Matter -- $tCopyright Page -- $tNotes on Contributors -- $tIntroduction /$rSebastian Hoffmann , Andrea Sand , Sabine Arndt-Lappe and Lisa Marie Dillmann -- $tModelling Lexical Structures in the Oxford English Dictionary /$rEdmund Weiner -- $tInvestigating the Circumstances of Coinage /$rAntoinette Renouf -- $tSynonym Selection as a Strategy of Stress Clash Avoidance /$rJulia Schlüter and Gabriele Knappe -- $tIntensification with Very, Really and So in Selected Varieties of English /$rKarin Aijmer -- $tThe Pragmatics of Well as a Discourse Marker in Broadcast Discussions /$rJohn M.

Central issues are the presentation of major corpus resources (both corpora and software tools), the findings (especially about frequency) which are simply not accessible without such resources, their theoretical implications relating to both lexical units and word meanings, and the practical ? especially pedagogical ? applications of corpus findings. This is complemented by a lexicographer?s view on the data structures implicit in the Oxford English Dictionary (OED). The volume, which has sprung from the 36th ICAME conference, held in at Trier University in May 2015, will be of relevance for theoretical and applied linguists interested in corpora, word usage, and the mental lexicon. 410 0$aLanguage and Computers$v81. 606 $aEnglish language$xGrammar$xData processing$vCongresses 606 $aEnglish language$xDiscourse analysis$xData processing$xCongresses 606 $aComputational linguistics$vCongresses 615 0$aEnglish language$xGrammar$xData processing 615 0$aEnglish language$xDiscourse analysis$xData processing$xCongresses. 615 0$aComputational linguistics 676 $a420.1/88 701 $aHoffmann$b Sebastian 701 $aSand$b Andrea 701 $aArndt-Lappe$b Sabine 701 $aDillmann$b Lisa Marie 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911142086003321 997 $aUNINA
