This workshop will include a guided tour of the beloved exhibition Common Ground: The Heart of Community, slated to close permanently in January 2025. Following the tour, learn strategies for engaging students in the primary source artifacts, images, and documents found in JANM’s vast collection and discover classroom-ready resources to support teaching and learning about the Japanese American experience.
The DPJ's New (but failing) Grand Security Strategy: Implications for the U.S.-Japan alliance, Sino-Japanese ties, and East Asian regionalism
Harvard University's Christopher Hughes will speak at USC.

The Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) administration came to power in September 2009 promising new directions in Japanese foreign and security policy. The DPJ thus far has been heavily criticized for the opacity of its foreign policy, and appears to have precipitated a mini-crisis in U.S.-Japan relations, especially over U.S. base facilities. This talk dissects the DPJ's policy asking what is new in its strategic thinking, how the DPJ has thus far sought to chart a new course in ties with the U.S. and China and its impact on East Asian regionalism, but also what are the international and domestic obstacles these policies are already encountering.
Chair: Saori Katada, Associate Professor of International Relations, USC
