Fish, Fishing and Community in North Korea and Neighbours

While many developmental sectors and their communities have sparse historical or geographic records, recent works on environmental history and historical geography have sought to fill in some of the gaps. Work on histories of forests, pollution and some land mammal and reptile species has contributed a great deal in the effort to move the realm of history beyond that of human experience. Fish and fishing, however, are certainly under-researched in both a historical and geographic sense. Even in the field of anthropology, an academic discipline with a concern for the edges and outliers in human development, fishing communitiestheir societies, traditions and histories-have not received much in the way of exposure or interest. This chapter, therefore, outlines what can only be a partial and incomplete focus on the wider global histories and geographies of fish and fishing. For the most part histories and geographies of fish and fishing have been extremely focused on the northern hemisphere. Histories of European fishing development and stocks abound, especially those focused on the traditions of the Cod and Herring fisheries prior to the twentieth century, and to the area around Newfoundland's Grand Banks. Histories of colonialist, modernist and capitalist technologies as they were deployed in the pursuit globally of whales and seals are also quite abundant. Histories and geographies of fishing in the Pacific, Africa and Southeast Asia are few and far between: however, those that are encountered within this chapter are considered for their methodological approach to the study of fishing communities and territories outside of the traditions of European or Western fishing practice. Fish and fishing community histories and geographies of Chinese and Japanese fishing are of particular interest and transfers of technology, spiritual mythologies and cultural traditions which intersect with those of Korea are vital to this chapter. Finally, this chapter explores the history of Korean fishing traditions and practices, considering what material exists from the records of the pre-1907 Chosŏn state, as well as the material gathered by Japanese academics and colonists during the period from 1907 to 1945. These are combined with the few seminal studies of Korean fishing communities in more recent times, especially that of Gageodo, South Korea's most southwestern community which itself has been a fieldwork site for the author of this book during its formation.

“…Daher ist ebenso unklar, ob der Warenaustausch zwischen Japan und den Ryūkyū generell als Tribut-oder Außenhandel deklariert werden sollte. 48 Zusammenfassend können die Beziehungen zwischen dem bakufu und dem Inselreich heute nur sehr schwer rekonstruiert werden. Grundsätzlich geht man mittlerweile aber davon aus, dass aufgrund des Vasallenverhältnisses zwangsläufig diplomatische Beziehungen sowie Handelsbeziehungen zwischen Japan und den Ryūkyū-Inseln geführt wurden.…”

During the period of Edo (1603–1868), Japan was dominated and ruled by the Tokugawa Dynasty. In fact this family ruled the country on its own and provided every Shōgun in the modern age. In the era of the third Shōguns reign – Tokugawa Iemitsu – Japan got into a term of forclosure which at least took 200 years, today known as ‚Sakoku‘ (1639–1853). The purpose of this paper is to examine the economic and social conditions in order to consist as a souvereign country during this period of isolation. The focus to answer this question thereby lies on food supply, foreign commerce and the external relations of the Shōgunat.

“…This kind of structure appears when only few nodes in one layer have sufficient infrastructure, and the necessary economic and human resources to connect with nodes in other layers. For example, in some social networks, only a few individuals of one community or layer may have the necessary skills to establish commercial and cultural relationships with individuals from other layers [21]. In another example, in a national and international airport network, most of the airports in a country (layer) only serve national flights, while a small set of airports serve international flights from and to other countries (layers) [22].…”

The role of bridge nodes between layers on epidemic spreading

et al. 2018

Real networks, like the international airport network and the Internet, are composed of interconnected layers (or communities) through a small fraction of nodes that we call here 'bridge nodes'. These nodes are crucial in the spreading of epidemics because they enable the spread the disease to the entire system. In this work we study the effect of the bridge nodes on the susceptibleinfected-recovered model in a two layer network with a small fraction r of these nodes. In the dynamical process, we theoretically determine that at criticality and for the limit r→0, the time t b at which the first bridge node is infected diverges as a power-law with r, while above criticality, it appears a crossover between a logarithmic and a power-law behavior. Additionally, in the steady state at criticality, the fraction of recovered nodes scales with r as a power-law whose exponent can be understood from the finite size cluster distribution at criticality. We also test our model on the real international airline network and show that 'high-degree bridge nodes' reduce the time t b .
