    This book is the first work to comprehensively investigate the enclaves of non-Japanese residents in Japan. In a comparative study, it convincingly examines eight enclaves of five nationalities (Chinese, Korean, Filipino, Brazilian and Turkish) in twelve municipalities. Japan now leads in terms of depopulation in countries affiliated with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The fact that the country has been supplementing the decreased number of Japanese nationals with an increase in migrants, who form enclaves, has attracted great attention. The temporal development and status quo of such enclaves are important concerns of researchers, policymakers and the general public. This publication is the result of joint studies by geographers and sociologists and contributes to a more detailed understanding of these topics. It thus represents a valuable achievement in the study of the segregation and enclave formation of minority nationalities. The empirical validity of existing explanatory frameworks, such as spatial assimilation and heterolocalism, is also discussed in a Japanese context.

    'Decarbonization = depopulation. Eliminating CO2 means eliminating the human race' - Period 2022 - 2024 will be crucial for all of us CO2 is the "molecule of life" in our atmosphere. Without CO2, current life on our planet would not be possible. All climate propaganda notwithstanding - the level of CO2 in our atmosphere is still historically low (450-500 ppm), and is not far above the dangerous lower limit of 300 ppm. Below that level, everything that lives on this planet begins to die. So what a great idea of the West not only to significantly reduce CO2 emissions, but also to take it OUT of the atmosphere. In the US, a major project has now been launched to do exactly that. This is so absurd and dangerous, that it is more or less comparable to the scenario of well-known sf-movies in which an aggressive alien race 'terraforms' the Earth into another atmosphere, hostile to us, so that it becomes suitable for their form of life.

    María Sánchez is obsessed with what she cannot see. As a field veterinarian following in the footsteps of generations before her, she travels the countryside of Spain bearing witness to a life eroding before her eyes-words, practices, and people slipping away because of depopulation, exploitation of natural resources, inadequate environmental policies, and development encroaching on farmland and villages. Sánchez, the first woman in her family to dedicate herself to what has traditionally been a male-dominated profession, rebuffs the bucolic narrative of rural life often written by-and for consumption by-people in cities, describing the multilayered social complexity of people who are proud, resilient, and often misunderstood.Sánchez interweaves family stories of three generations with reflections on science and literature. She focuses especially on the often dismissed and undervalued generations of women who have forgone education and independence to work the land and tend to family. In doing so, she asks difficult questions about gender equity and labor. Part memoir and part rural feminist manifesto, Land of Women acknowledges the sacrifices of Sánchez's female ancestors who enabled her to become the woman she is.A bestseller in Spain, Land of Women promises to ignite conversations about the treatment and perception of rural communities everywhere.

    We, the people of the United States of America, are at a crossroads. Our nation, our government, our economy, our constitution, our lives, and our future is in great jeopardy and on the verge of collapse and destruction. Past generations have failed to stop the infiltration in our new nation, and their slow and planned alteration of what was originally our inalienable rights have now been replaced with denials, censorship, banning, editing, infringement, and outright removal. Our nation has never had an opportunity to actually find out if a constitutional government works. As one born a citizen, it is my right and my duty to stand up against the corruption that has crept in and taken over every aspect of our lives, and to speak out in opposition to the false and corrupting principles and propose new government to ensure our liberty, protection, and prosperity to ourselves and our posterity based upon true principles that preserve constitutional and human rights to all, not just the 1%. This then becomes a new world order, but not the new world order of our enemy, whose plans and actions are leading us to our enslavement and our destruction. The depopulation agenda is evil. We have more than enough room for many multi-billions of people and the ability to produce the basic necessities required to care for all of us. There is no need to kill off and control the population for the intended purpose for the 1% to acquire more and more money. So, I hope I can generate support for this concept, and I hope I plug up all the weaknesses that currently threaten us. And I hope I am not too late in my presentation for a better world order based upon true constitutional principles that ensures rights to all of mankind. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    It was no more sin to kill me then to kill a dogg, or any Scotch-Irish dogg. “Scotch-Irish” is an American term that became popular in the latter 1800s, referring to the largely Protestant immigrants to the United States originating in the northern Irish province of Ulster. The majority of Scotch-Irish were people intentionally settled in Ulster as a counter to the native Catholic Irish, who immigrated to Ulster from the lowlands of Scotland and the borderlands between England and Scotland. The Ulster settlers were a solution to depopulation caused by the wars in Ireland, and it was hoped that the Protestant settlers would counterbalance the habitually rebellious Catholic Irish. The regions they came from had a history of violence and poverty. The heritage of violence was thought to have prepared them for withstanding Irish disorder, and poverty made migration to Ulster an attractive proposition. They were deliberately selected by various proprietors, landowners, and King James (1601-1623). The large number of Ulster immigrants to British American colonies in the 1700s were usually simply called “Irish,” but modern historians prefer the term Scots-Irish, on the grounds that “Scotch” refers to whiskey. This is unnecessarily pedantic, not to mention that Scotch-Irish is deeply embedded in the history books and in American tradition.  During the colonial era, it is estimated that some 200,000 Scotch-Irish migrated to the mainland colonies. How many may have migrated to Canada (British after 1763) or various Caribbean colonies is not well-known. The colonies, particularly Pennsylvania, attracted the Scotch-Irish for several reasons, the most important of which was the ready availability of farmable land, but also, there was no established church (the official and politically dominant religion in Ireland was the Church of England) that discriminated against dissenters such as the Presbyterians. The colonies were also more stable. In Ir ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Daniel Houle. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/214014/bk_acx0_214014_sample.mp3.

    A radical, provocative argument that the global population will soon begin to decline, dramatically reshaping the social, political and economic landscape.For half a century, statisticians, pundits and politicians have warned that a burgeoning planetary population will soon overwhelm the earth's resources. But a growing number of experts are sounding a different kind of alarm. Rather than growing exponentially, they argue, the global population is headed for a steep decline. Throughout history, depopulation was the product of catastrophe: ice ages, plagues, the collapse of civilizations. This time, however, we're thinning ourselves deliberately, by choosing to have fewer babies than we need to replace ourselves. In much of the developed and developing world, that decline is already underway, as urbanisation, women's empowerment, and waning religiosity lead to smaller and smaller families. In Empty Planet, Ibbitson and Bricker travel from South Florida to Sao Paulo, Seoul to Nairobi, Brussels to Delhi to Beijing, drawing on a wealth of research and firsthand reporting to illustrate the dramatic consequences of this population decline - and to show us why the rest of the developing world will soon join in. They find that a smaller global population will bring with it a number of benefits: fewer workers will command higher wages; good jobs will prompt innovation; the environment will improve; the risk of famine will wane; and falling birthrates in the developing world will bring greater affluence and autonomy for women. But enormous disruption lies ahead, too. We can already see the effects in Europe and parts of Asia, as aging populations and worker shortages weaken the economy and impose crippling demands on healthcare and vital social services. There may be earth-shaking implications on a geopolitical scale as well. Empty Planet is a hugely important book for our times. Captivating and persuasive, it is a story about urbanisation, access to education and the empowerment of women to choose their own destinies. It is about the secularisation of societies and the vital role that immigration has to play in our futures.Rigorously researched and deeply compelling, Empty Planet offers a vision of a future that we can no longer prevent - but one that we can shape, if we choose to.
