ACSS/ACSEE 2015 Programme Cover Image:“The Roben Waterfall”
The image used for the cover of the ACSS/ACSEE 2015 Conference Programme is from a woodblock print by
Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849). It is one of eight oban-sized woodblock prints in the series “A Journey to theWaterfalls in All the Provinces” (Shokoku Taki Meguri) and was originally published by the Edo publisher, Eijudo,in around 1832.
This print is titled “Roben Waterfall at Oyama in Sagami Province” (Soshu Oyama Roben no taki) and featurespilgrims taking a ritual bath at the Roben Waterfall on Oyama Mountain (Kanagawa Prefecture), before visitinga nearby shrine. In this series, Hokusai tackled the technical problem of how to represent falling water, treating
it in a different way in each of the eight prints.

welcome to acss/acsee 2015
Dear Colleagues,
Welcome to the Sixth Annual Asian Conference on the Social Sciences, and the Fifth Annual Asian Conference on Sustainability,
Energy and the Environment, which for the first time is in the wonderful city of Kobe.
This IAFOR event is an interdisciplinary international conference that invites academics, practitioners, scholars and researchers
from around the world to meet and exchange ideas. What I have particularly appreciated at the previous conferences is
the shared development of intellectual ideas and the challenges to dominant paradigms that occurred through the academic
exchanges of the conferences. I have every confidence that this year’s event will extend and develop the debates still further.

I have no doubt that we will all be able to use the time spent at this conference for intellectual discovery and for thedevelopment of collaborative links and connections between the researchers, academics, scholars and practitioners who areattending.
I strongly encourage your active engagement with this conference. I very much look forward to seeing again those delegates
who have attended previous conferences, to meeting those of you who are new to ACSS/ACSEE, and to continuing together
the work of IAFOR into the future.
I encourage your active involvement throughout the conference, and look forward to meeting you all.
With my warmest regards,

letter of welcome

The conference theme of ‘Power’ is an important one to scientists, and is no doubt in part the reason that this conference has
attracted more than 400 delegates from across the globe. The programme for this conference promises to be an exciting one,with thematic topics that address the central aim of the conference in different but complementary ways, including throughpapers that draw on empirical research, and that develop theoretical and conceptual insights.The conference will be enhanced
through its wide variety of presenters, who will draw on their diverse experiences and knowledge and on their academic,
personal and geographical contexts, in a programme that promises exciting and challenging discussion.

Keynote Presentation: The United Nations and Human Rights

1. Treatment of Human Rights by Traditional International Law
Traditional international law did not deal with human rights.
Traditional international law dealt only with the rights and duties of States.
Human rights were traditionally considered as a matter of domestic jurisdiction.
2. Big Changes as a Result of the Establishment of the UN
A big change took place when the UN was established in 1945.
“Promotion and protection of human rights” was included as one of the three objectives of the UN; two others being“maintenance of peace” and “economic cooperation”.
3. Reasons for the Inclusion of Human Rights among the Objectives of the UN
Reflections on the serious human rights violations during the Second World War.
The international community had to address millions of refugees created as a result of the war.
4. Major UN Achievements in the Field of Human Rights(b) Standard-setting- Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948)		
- Genocide Convention (1948)- Refugee Convention (1951) and Refugee Protocol (1967)- Racial Discrimination Convention (1965)- International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (1966)- International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (1966)- Convention for the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (1979)- Convention against Torture (1984)			
- Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989)- Convention on Forced Disappearance (2006)		
- Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2006)(c) Supervision of compliance- Universal Periodic Review (UPR) by the Human Rights Council- State report review mechanism by human rights treaty bodies- Individual communications (complaints) procedures- ILO international labor standards supervisory mechanism

acss acsee 2015
keynote presenter(a) Institution building- Creation of the Commission on Human Rights (1946) & the Sub-Commission on the Promotion & Protection of
Human Rights (1947)- Creation of the Human Rights Council (2006) & its Advisory Committee (2007) replacing the Commission & its SubCommission

5. New Challenges for the UN in the Field of Human Rights- Proliferation of human rights mechanisms- Politicization and selectivity in condemning violations- Non-compliance with international human rights standards by States- Lack of common understanding on the legal relationship between international law and municipal law in relation tohuman rights- Cultural diversity and the application of international human rights standards
Conclusion- Human rights are often violated by States. There is need for an international organization such as the UN to address
the issue of human rights.
- The UN celebrates its 70th anniversary this year. It is timely to review the achievements of the UN in the field of humanrights and discuss ways and means to promote and protect human rights further through the UN.

Spotlight Presentation: Deltas of the World - A Possible Comparison
Wetlands are a key point of the environmental conservation agenda. Some of the ecological reasons include a highbiodiversity, including rare and endangered species, their vulnerability and importance in global mass and energy flows.
Moreover, wetlands are ecotone areas, accounting for the biodiversity of land and water species. The ecosystemservices provide an excellent framework for assessing their benefits. Among wetlands, deltas are far away the largest
one from a geographical standpoint; for this reason, deltas represent a protection priority. This paper looks at several
particular deltas, attempting to find common grounds, despite of the geographical and ecological elements, using
sustainability-based criteria accounting for environmental, social, economic, and cultural issues. The results suggest thatthe lack of accessibility is a warrant of protecting biodiversity by limiting access, but at the same time prevents theireconomic development, generating social issues. Tourism is a potential way of valorizing their potential, but could
conflict with protecting the values of the local culture. Among the instruments aimed at their protection, WWF,
the Ramsar Convention, World Heritage and Man and Biosphere Programs offer important management principles.
Ecological restoration also represents an instrument for enhancing the environmental quality of these areas.

Spotlight Presentation: Policy Implications of Leadership Instability in Contemporary Australian Politics
Australia’s Liberal-National Party (LNP) Coalition government under Prime MinisterTony Abbott has already confronted
leadership instability, despite its decisive election victory over the Australian Labor Party (ALP) in September 2013.
One of the great ironies of contemporary Australian politics is how the conservative LNP has become subject tosimilar party leadership turmoil which dogged the previous Rudd and Gillard ALP governments.
The recent leadership speculation is the direct result of Abbott’s LNP government breaking its election campaign
promises; particularly introducing harsh and inequitable fiscal austerity measures, including proposed cuts to health,welfare and education, which have been frustrated by crossbench opposition in the Senate. Never a particularly
popular figure, with an abrupt personality lacking sensitivity to the need for policy consultation, Abbott’s personal
approval ratings have long been in steep decline, with the LNP remaining well behind the ALP in opinion polling.
Despite Abbott having already survived a backbench revolt, facing potential defeat in the next federal election due in2016 amid a weakening economy, the LNP may well feel desperate enough to mount a successful challenge against
him. However, it is unclear whether a new leader would enable enough policy change to allow the LNP to restore
trust with the public, given factional and ideological divisions residing within the LNP. While a rapid turnover of Prime
Ministers is not entirely unique in Australian history, it does appear that an era of greater volatility has returned toAustralia’s political landscape, with potentially adverse consequences for effective public policy implementation.

IAFORThe International Academic Forum
Academic Vision and Mission“To Open Minds, To Educate Intelligence, To Inform Decisions”
The vision of IAFOR grew out of the perceived need to fill a vacuum in the communication and exchange activities of the academic
world. Its mission arose out of examining that space and investigating why it existed. The vacuum existed because of the lack ofopportunity for serious and thoughtful exchange between academics, members of the global business community, and practitioners
in the fields of human endeavor that linked these groups together. In the field of education, for example, we have academic theorists,
educational managers (political decision-makers and organizational directors) and classroom teachers with their support staff in IT,
library work, exchange programs, and specialist fields. But how often do they have the opportunity to interact?
Moving beyond one particular field, larger questions arise. What function should universities prioritize in the 21st century? What
do businesses see as their contribution to social and global well being? How can people on the ground, trying to implement
improvements that will transform human life, best be supported? And perhaps above all, what are the agendas that will drive
mechanisms to enable these groups to interact effectively.
One piece of distilled thought that came from early exchanges at one of our conferences was the recognition that some of therhetoric of concern about the problems of developing nations was perhaps over-focused on the term “poverty” because it can be
defined only in a relative way. “Hunger” was put forward as being more immediate and itself a contributory factor to poverty, rather
than the other way round. One key to the hunger issue could be the provision of safe drinking water, or water for irrigation in somecontexts, while flood management might be necessary elsewhere. These, in and by themselves become valuable only insofar as they
help to relieve hunger in specific contexts.
IAFOR is affording opportunities that do not exist elsewhere. The base is Kansai, Japan’s great commercial and manufacturing hub,
one symbol of the emerging Pacific economy that is already eclipsing the long dominant Atlantic zone. Our conferences present
those taking part with three unique dimensions of experience. First of all, it encourages interdisciplinary activity to be expanded.
Depending on the field, this can face varying degrees of difficulty, ranging from discouragement to downright prohibition. Those
overly dependent on fixed academic structures often see lateral thinking as a threat. None of these negatives apply in IAFOR. Its
purpose is to generate new approaches that cross any disciplinary lines. The principle employed is to let the imagination permit
intuitive responses to questions. There are no panels of critics. There are simply people who want to listen and reflect. The model ofacademic work as potholing is replaced by the metaphor of mountaineering. While respecting the need for solid and well-founded
academic work, we feel the need to go beyond it from time to time to discover fresh approaches to old questions.
Secondly, it facilitates the heightening of intercultural awareness. Again, we encourage innovation through cross-cultural perception.
Cultural roots influence people in their attitudes more than most would realize or admit. The need to see and internalize insights
gained from other viewpoints is met by a process of steady illumination.
Thirdly, it promotes the broadening of international exchange. We may live in a globalized world, but in reality parochialism still holds
sway. The collapse of the U.S.S.R and the break-up of Yugoslavia led to the re-establishment of numerous former countries. While
this may be desirable for the peoples concerned, it merely adds to the world’s cultural confusion. Exchange leads to explanation andthat helps the growth of intercultural awareness.
IAFOR makes all of these developments possible in one gathering. Our conferences are not a substitute for specialist conferences.
We intend our events to be an alternative that functions as a balance or even a corrective to the extreme tendencies that can arise
from more narrowly defined research parameters. In short, IAFOR is promoting and facilitating a new multifaceted approach to oneof the core issues of our time, namely globalization and its many forms of growth and expansion. Awareness of how it cuts acrossthe worlds of business, and academia, along with its impact on societies and institutions is one of the driving forces that has given
the organization its momentum, and is making it a pioneer in this global age.

How are papers selected?
Journal Editors may accept papers through an open call, and proposed articles may be sent directly
to the respective editors. A small number of papers from the associated IAFOR conference
proceedings may also be selected by the journal editor(s) for reworking and revising subject tonormal processes of review. It is expected that between 5 and 10 percent of papers included inany given conference proceedings will be developed for inclusion in the associated conference
journal.
How are IAFOR Journals related to IAFOR conferences?
IAFOR’s journals reflect the interdisciplinary and international nature of our conferences andare organized thematically.
