description: This publication collects the outcomes of a research carried on by a group of students of the first year of University degree in Sustainability and Tourism Management (MaST) of the University of Trento during the remote teaching ? due to the restrictions adopted to fight against the Covid-19 pandemics ? of the course of Law of Tourism held by Umberto Izzo, associate professor of Private Law within Faculty of Law at the University of Trento. This research comes after a similar one carried out during the first year of pandemic emergency. It deals with many crucial issues related to the impact of Covid-19 on the Touristic field in the second year of pandemics, as professor Izzo proposed the students to investigate these topics. At the beginning of the second Summer of pandemics this publication deals with 8 main topics corresponding to the 8 chapters of this document: 1) Pandemic crisis, measures to tackle its effects and tourism: a diachronic analysis; 2) The impact of lockdown on the touristic field at the beginning of the second pandemic Summer; 3) Tourism and freedom of movement: evolution of the regulatory framework and measures to start traveling again; 4) Covid-19 and contractual relationships in the touristic field; 5) The reaction of digital touristic platforms to pandemics; 6) Touristic services in post-Covid: warranties offered to tourists and liability of the tourist service provider in terms of places sterility, safety measures and spacing rules; 7) Tourism in intensive care because of Covid-19: which welfare can be expected for workers and which support is offered to private companies in the period of PNRR? 8) Tourism resurgence during the vaccination campaign: range of offers, marketing strategies, product packages.

Species Specificity

description: Pneumocystis jirovecii, the fungal agent of human Pneumocystis pneumonia, is closely related to macaque Pneumocystis. Little is known about other Pneumocystis species in distantly related mammals, none of which are capable of establishing infection in humans. The molecular basis of host specificity in Pneumocystis remains unknown as experiments are limited due to an inability to culture any species in vitro. To explore Pneumocystis evolutionary adaptations, we have sequenced the genomes of species infecting macaques, rabbits, dogs and rats and compared them to available genomes of species infecting humans, mice and rats. Complete whole genome sequence data enables analysis and robust phylogeny, identification of important genetic features of the host adaptation, and estimation of speciation timing relative to the rise of their mammalian hosts. Our data reveals insights into the evolution of P. jirovecii, the sole member of the genus able to infect humans.

description: Majorana fermions have been intensively studied in recent years for their importance to both fundamental science and potential applications in topological quantum computing1,2. Majorana fermions are predicted to exist in a vortex core of superconducting topological insulators3. However, they are extremely difficult to be distinguished experimentally from other quasiparticle states for the tiny energy difference between Majorana fermions and these states, which is beyond the energy resolution of most available techniques. Here, we overcome the problem by systematically investigating the spatial profile of the Majorana mode and the bound quasiparticle states within a vortex in Bi2Te3/NbSe2. While the zero bias peak in local conductance splits right off the vortex center in conventional superconductors, it splits off at a finite distance ~20nm away from the vortex center in Bi2Te3/NbSe2, primarily due to the Majorana fermion zero mode. While the Majorana mode is destroyed by reducing the distance between vortices, the zero bias peak splits as a conventional superconductor again. This work provides strong evidences of Majorana fermions and also suggests a possible route to manipulating them.

description: The conventional way of identifying DNA motifs, solely based on match alignment information, is susceptible to a high number of spurious sites. A novel scoring system has been introduced by taking both match and mismatch alignment information into account. The mismatch alignment information is useful to remove spurious sites encountered in DNA motif searching. As an example, a correct TATA box site in Homo sapiens H4/g gene has successfully been identified based on match and mismatch alignment information.

description: We demonstrate an all-optical magnetometer capable of measuring the magnitude and direction of a magnetic field using nonlinear magneto-optical rotation in a cesium vapor. Vector capability is added by effective modulation of the field along orthogonal axes and subsequent demodulation of the magnetic-resonance frequency. This modulation is provided by the AC Stark shift induced by circularly polarized laser beams. The sensor exhibits a demonstrated rms noise floor of 50 fT/Hz^(1/2) in measurement of the field magnitude and 0.5 mrad/Hz^(1/2) in the field direction; elimination of technical noise would improve these sensitivities to 12 fT/Hz^(1/2) and 5 microrad/Hz^(1/2), respectively. Applications for a precise all-optical vector magnetometer would include magnetically sensitive fundamental physics experiments, such as the search for a permanent electric dipole moment of the neutron.

description: Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a lethal autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). The most common mutation is the deletion of phenylalanine residue at position 508 (ΔF508). Here we report the production of CFTR-ΔF508 rabbits by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing. After microinjection and embryo transfer, 77 kits were born, of which five carried the ΔF508 mutation. To confirm the germline transmission, one male ΔF508 founder was bred with two wild-type females and produced 16 F1 generation kits, of which six are heterozygous ΔF508/WT animals. Our work adds CFTR-ΔF508 rabbits to the toolbox of CF animal models for biomedical research.
Ideals generated by 2-minors: binomial edge ideals and polyomino ideals

description: Since the early 1990s, a classical object in commutative algebra has been the study of binomial ideals. A widely-investigated class of binomial ideals is the one containing those generated by a subset of 2-minors of an (m x n)-matrix of indeterminates. This thesis is devoted to illustrate some algebraic and homological properties of two classes of ideals of 2-minors: binomial edge ideals and polyomino ideals. Binomial edge ideals arise from finite graphs and their appeal results from the fact that their homological properties reflect nicely the combinatorics of the underlying graph. First, we focus on the binomial edge ideals of block graphs. We give a lower bound for their Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity by computing the two distinguished extremal Betti numbers of a new family of block graphs, called flower graphs. Moreover, we present a linear time algorithm to compute Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity and Krull dimension of binomial edge ideals of block graphs. Secondly, we consider some classes of Cohen-Macaulay binomial edge ideals. We provide the regularity and the Cohen-Macaulay type of binomial edge ideals of Cohen-Macaulay cones, and we show the extremal Betti numbers of Cohen-Macaulay bipartite and fan graphs. In addition, we compute the Hilbert-Poincar� series of the binomial edge ideals of some Cohen-Macaulay bipartite graphs. Polyomino ideals arise from polyominoes, plane figures formed by joining one or more equal squares edge to edge. It is known that the polyomino ideal of simple polyominoes is prime. We consider multiply connected polyominoes, namely polyominoes with holes, and observe that the non-existence of a certain sequence of inner intervals of the polyomino, called zig-zag walk, gives a necessary condition for the primality of the polyomino ideal. Moreover, by computational approach, we prove that for all polyominoes with rank less than or equal to 14 the above condition is also sufficient. Lastly, we present an infinite class of prime polyomino ideals.

description: Accurate estimation of crop parameters, such as Leaf Area Index (LAI) and biomass over large areas using remote sensing techniques, is crucial for monitoring crop growth and yield prediction. In this study, a Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) method was developed to estimate LAI and biomass values of sugarcane during growth season using optical and synthetic-Aperture Radar (SAR) data fusion. Predicting LAI on an independent test data set using the GPR and the combined optical and SAR indices provided better prediction accuracies of LAI; with the GPR based on radial basis function (Root Mean Square Error [RMSE] = 0.34, Mean Absolute Error [MAE] = 0.28 and Mean Absolute Percentage Error [MAPE] = 10.5%) and polynomial function (RMSE = 0.42, MAE = 0.31 and MAPE = 12.58%), respectively. The test results of sugarcane biomass also showed that the GPR (poly) produced the highest statistical results (RMSE = 2.45 kg/m2, MAE = 1.72 kg/m2, MAPE = 8.1%) using the combined indices. The results suggest that the crop biophysical retrieval based on optical and SAR data fusion and GPR proposed in this study could improve LAI and biomass estimation that could help for effective crop growth monitoring and mapping applications.
Magic mirror on the wall, is Walt the author of them all? Walt Disney as a posthumous author

description: Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio was founded in 1923 by brothers Roy and Walt Disney, and although it has undergone many changes over its nearly 100-year transformation into the media conglomerate The Walt Disney Company, animation still remains an important part of its business. The influence Walt Disney had as a producer on his studio’s early films has resulted in some theorists considering him to be their author using auteur theory, which is most frequently applied to live-action film directors. The use of Disney’s name in the branding of these films has also been used to construct him as an auteur during his lifetime, with it also noted that this is as equally applicable to the films released after his death in 1966. However, rarely in literature has the continued influence of Walt Disney on the feature-length animated films released by his studio after his death been investigated beyond the use of his name in their branding. Consequently, this thesis will use auteur theory in combination with other film studies approaches to explore Walt Disney as a posthumous author of Robin Hood (1973), The Lion King (1994), Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001) and Frozen II (2019). By looking at the production of these films and their contents, including their story, animation, music, production design and use of technology, it will be shown the filmmaking practices shaped by Walt Disney during his lifetime have been adhered to in various ways by Walt Disney Animation Studios after 1966. As a result, a new framework for posthumous authorship in film will be proposed which suggests the adherence to a filmmaker’s approach after they have died situates them as a posthumous auteur, having implications for current conceptions of posthumous authorship in cinema as the completion of a film after its originator has died.

description: We match three hadronic equations of state at low energy densities to a perturbatively computed equation of state of quarks and gluons at high energy densities. One of them includes all known hadrons treated as point particles, which approximates attractive interactions among hadrons. The other two include, in addition, repulsive interactions in the form of excluded volumes occupied by the hadrons. A switching function is employed to make the crossover transition from one phase to another without introducing a thermodynamic phase transition. A chi-square fit to accurate lattice calculations with temperature $100 < T < 1000$ MeV determines the parameters. These parameters quantify the behavior of the QCD running gauge coupling and the hard core radius of protons and neutrons, which turns out to be $0.62 \pm 0.04$ fm. The most physically reasonable models include the excluded volume effect. Not only do they include the effects of attractive and repulsive interactions among hadrons, but they also achieve better agreement with lattice QCD calculations of the equation of state. The equations of state constructed in this paper do not result in a phase transition, at least not for the temperatures and baryon chemical potentials investigated. It remains to be seen how well these equations of state will represent experimental data on high energy heavy ion collisions when implemented in hydrodynamic simulations.

Implementation of an all-optical setup for insect brain optogenetic stimulation and two-photon functional imaging
Creators: name: Zanon, Mirko
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Trento

description: Insect brain is a very complex but at the same time small, simplified and accessible model with respect to the mammalian one. In neuroscience a huge number of works adopt drosophila as animal model, given its easiness of maintenance and, overall, of genetical manipulation. With such a model one can investigate many behavioral tasks and at the same time have access to a whole brain in vivo, with improved specificity and cellular resolution capabilities. Still, a remarkable goal would be to gain a precise control over the neural network, in order to fully manipulate specific areas of the brain, acting directly on network nodes of interest. This is possible thanks to optogenetics, a technique that exploits photosensitive molecules to modulate molecular events in living cells and neurons. At the same time, it is possible to perform a neuronal readout with light, exploiting calcium-based reporters; in this way, neuronal response investigation can gain in temporal and spatial resolution. This is an all-optical approach that brings many advantages in the neural network study and an insight in the functional connectivity of the system under investigation. We present here a setup that combines a two-photon imaging microscope, capable of in vivo imaging with a sub-cellular resolution and an excellent penetration depth down to hundreds of microns, with a diode laser optogenetic stimulation. With such a setup we investigate the drosophila brain in vivo, stimulating single units of the primary olfactory system (the so-called glomeruli, about 20 �m of diameter). By our knowledge this is one of the first time a similar all-optical approach is used in such an animal model: we confirm, in this way, the possibility to perform these experiments in vivo, with all the advantages coming from the improved accessibility of our model. Moreover, we present the results using a sample co-expressing GCaMP6 and ChR2-XXL, optimal performing sensor and actuator, largely exploited in the field for their high efficiency: these were rarely used in combination, since their spectral overlap, nevertheless we are able to show the feasibility of this combined approach, enabling to take advantage from the use of both these performing molecules. Finally, we will show different approaches of data analysis to infer relevant information about correlation and time response of different areas of the brain, that can give us hints in favor of some functional connectivity between olfactory subunits.

description: A comprehensive analysis of the elementary processes behind the scanning tunneling microscope controlled rotation of C$_2$H$_2$ and C$_2$D$_2$, isotopologues of a single acetylene molecule adsorbed on the Cu(001) surface is given, with a focus on the isotope effects. With the help of density-functional theory we calculate the vibrational modes of C$_2$H$_2$ and C$_2$D$_2$ on Cu(001) and estimate the anharmonic couplings between them, using a simple strings-on-rods model. The probability of the elementary processes -- non-linear and combination band -- are estimated using the Keldysh diagram technique. This allows us to clarify the main peculiarities and the isotope effects of the C$_2$H$_2$ and C$_2$D$_2$ on Cu(001) rotation, discovered in the pioneering work [Stipe et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 1263 (1998)], which have not been previously understood.

Depending on the system parameters the minimum of Tc may correspond to parallel, antiparallel or non-collinear mutual orientation of magnetic moments. Such anomalous behavior can reveal itself only provided the ferromagnetic layers differ from each other and it completely disappears in the dirty limit.

description: We have realized ambipolar ionic liquid gated field-effect transistors based on WS2 mono- and bilayers, and investigated their opto-electronic response. A thorough characterization of the transport properties demonstrates the high quality of these devices for both electron and hole accumulation, which enables the quantitative determination of the band gap (Δ1L = 2.14 eV for monolayers and Δ2L = 1.82 eV for bilayers). It also enables the operation of the transistors in the ambipolar injection regime with electrons and holes injected simultaneously at the two opposite contacts of the devices in which we observe light emission from the FET channel. A quantitative analysis of the spectral properties of the emitted light, together with a comparison with the band gap values obtained from transport, show the internal consistency of our results and allow a quantitative estimate of the excitonic binding energies to be made. Our results demonstrate the power of ionic liquid gating in combination with nanoelectronic systems, as well as the compatibility of this technique with optical measurements on semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides. These findings further open the way to the investigation of the optical properties of these systems in a carrier density range much broader than that explored until now.

description: We derive an expression for the Maxwell stress tensor in a magnetic dielectric medium specified by its permittivity "epsilon" and permeability "mu." The derivation proceeds from the generalized form of the Lorentz law, which specifies the force exerted by the electromagnetic E and H fields on the polarization P and magnetization M of ponderable media. Our stress tensor differs from the well-known tensors of Abraham and Minkowski, which have been at the center of a century-old controversy surrounding the momentum of the electromagnetic field in transparent materials.

description: Maxwell's macroscopic equations combined with a generalized form of the Lorentz law of force are a complete and consistent set of equations. Not only are these five equations fully compatible with special relativity, they also conform with conservation laws of energy, momentum, and angular momentum. We demonstrate consistency with the conservation laws by showing that, when a beam of light enters a magnetic dielectric, a fraction of the incident linear (or angular) momentum pours into the medium at a rate determined by the Abraham momentum density, ExH/c^2, and the group velocity V_g of the electromagnetic field. The balance of the incident, reflected, and transmitted momenta is subsequently transferred to the medium as force (or torque) at the leading edge of the beam, which propagates through the medium with velocity V_g. Our analysis does not require "hidden" momenta to comply with the conservation laws, nor does it dissolve into ambiguities with regard to the nature of electromagnetic momentum in ponderable media. The linear and angular momenta of the electromagnetic field are clearly associated with the Abraham momentum, and the phase and group refractive indices (n_p and n_g) play distinct yet definitive roles in the expressions of force, torque, and momentum densities.

description: We analyzed several basic correlations between structural parameters of galaxies. The data were taken from various samples in different passbands which are available in the literature. We discuss disc scaling relations as well as some debatable issues concerning the so-called Photometric Plane for bulges and elliptical galaxies in different forms and various versions of the famous Kormendy relation. We show that some of the correlations under discussion are artificial (self-correlations), while others truly reveal some new essential details of the structural properties of galaxies. Our main results are as follows: (1) At present, we can not conclude that faint stellar discs are, on average, more thin than discs in high surface brightness galaxies. The ``central surface brightness -- thickness'' correlation appears only as a consequence of the transparent exponential disc model to describe real galaxy discs. (2) The Photometric Plane appears to have no independent physical sense. Various forms of this plane are merely sophisticated versions of the Kormendy relation or of the self-relation involving the central surface brightness of a bulge/elliptical galaxy and the Sersic index n. (3) The Kormendy relation is a physical correlation presumably reflecting the difference in the origin of bright and faint ellipticals and bulges. We present arguments that involve creating artificial samples to prove our main idea.

description: Reporting on migration by mainstream media often focuses on negative news and lacks the perspective of migrants. Fact-based, nuanced and inclusive coverage on migration by mainstream media is ever more important since misinformation on migration easily spreads on social media. As quality control in the media depends heavily on self-regulation by journalists and media enterprises, we recommend to 1. strengthen trainings for journalists, 2. foster collaboration between research and media, 3. finance migrant-led media, 4. incentivise inclusive hiring practices at media corporations and 5. to share best-practices in media policy guidelines across national boundaries for improving the quality and inclusiveness of reporting on migration.

description: Klebsiella pneumoniae is an important Gram-negative opportunistic bacterial pathogen that causes a variety of community and healthcare-associated infections in human and animals. The emergence and spread of multidrug resistant K. pneumoniae strains is now recognized as an urgent threat to public health worldwide. However, the epidemiology of K. pneumoniae has not been extensively studied and reservoirs of the organism have been rarely investigated. Hence, understanding and monitoring of K. pneumoniae transmission across host species is of paramount importance. In this study, we aimed to identify host-associated genomic differences across various K. pneumoniae strains originated from human and animals. Machine Learning (ML) classification models were trained for host prediction on pre-processed 9-mer count data from 706 publicly available whole genomes (European Nucleotide Archive, ENA). Model performance reached over 85% (accuracy and f1-score), showcasing the presence of host-associated differences. Pangenome and genome-wide association analyses (GWAS) were further employed for interpretation. Several acquired accessory genes, implicated in pathways such as carbohydrate metabolism, iron binding, and antibiotic resistance, were identified in agreement with recent studies. Interestingly, we also detected novel host-associated acquired genes related to stress-response. Our results support the application of ML algorithms and k-mers in parallel with GWAS workflow for the epidemiological surveillance of human and zoonotic transmission throughout K. pneumoniae outbreaks. Furthermore, we validate recently reported K. pneumoniae accessory genome variations and present novel ones that could associate with host specificity and/or reflect the selective pressure exerted on commensal and pathogenic bacteria by the excessive use antibiotics.

description: We present new deep ($σ\sim6~μ$Jy) radio images of the HH~124~IRS Radio Cluster at 4.8 and 7.5 GHz. We detect a total of 50 radio sources, most of them compact. Variability and spectral indices were analyzed in order to determine the nature of the sources and of their radio emission. A proper motion study was also performed for several of these radio sources using radio observation previously reported. Our analysis shows that 11 radio sources can be related with Galactic objects, most of them probably young stars. Interestingly, eight of these sources are in an area less than 1 square arcminute in size. The importance of such compact clusters resides in that all its members can be observed in a single pointing with most telescopes, and are, therefore, ideal for multi-wavelength studies of variability. Another 4 of the detected sources are clearly extragalactic. Finally, we propose from statistical arguments that from the remaining sources, about 10 are Galactic, but our study does not allow us to identify which of the sources fall in that specific category. The relatively large proper motions observed for the sources in HH~124~IRS suggest that this region is located at about 400 pc from the Sun. This is significantly smaller than the $\sim$800--900 pc distance usually assigned to the nearby open cluster NGC~2264 with which HH~124 is thought to be associated. However, a reanalysis of the Hipparcos parallaxes for members of NGC~2264, a convergent point approach, and a kinematic analysis all argue in favor of a distance of order 400 pc for NGC~2264 as well.

description: Let $M(d,r)$ be the moduli space of semistable sheaves of rank 0, Euler characteristic $r$ and first Chern class $dH (d>0)$, with $H$ the hyperplane class in $\mathbb{P}^2$. By previous work, we gave an explicit description of the class $[M(d,r)]$ of $M(d,r)$ in the Grothendieck ring of varieties for $d\leq 5$ and $g.c.d(d,r)=1$. In this paper we compute the fixed locus of $M(d,r)$ under some $(\mathbb{C}^{*})^2$-action and show that $M(d,r)$ admits an affine paving for $d\leq 5$ and $g.c.d(d,r)=1$. We also pose a conjecture that for any $d$ and $r$ coprime to $d$, $M(d,r)$ would admit an affine paving.

description: Aim: To develop classification criteria for Chinese pulse diagnosis and to objectify the ancient diagnostic technique. Methods: Chinese pulse curves are treated as wave signals. Multidimensional variable analysis is performed to provide the best curve fit between the recorded Chinese pulse waveforms and the collective Gamma density functions. Results: Chinese pulses can be recognized quantitatively by the newly-developed four classification indices, that is, the wave length, the relative phase difference, the rate parameter, and the peak ratio. The new quantitative classification not only reduces the dependency of pulse diagnosis on Chinese physician's experience, but also is able to interpret pathological wrist-pulse waveforms more precisely. Conclusions: Traditionally, Chinese physicians use fingertips to feel the wrist-pulses of patients in order to determine their health conditions. The qualitative theory of the Chinese pulse diagnosis is based on the experience of Chinese physicians for thousands of years. However, there are no quantitative theories to relate these different wrist-pulse waveforms to the health conditions of patients. In this paper, new quantified classification indices have been introduced to interpret the Chinese pulse waveform patterns objectively.

description: But : L’expérience vécue de la transition occupationnelle des personnes ayant subi un accident vasculaire cérébrale [AVC] est complexe et demeure encore mal comprise dans les écrits scientifiques. Le but de cette étude est de définir les différentes étapes du processus de transition occupationnelle vécues par les participant·es, de comprendre comment les personnes vivent ce processus depuis leur AVC jusqu’à maintenant et finalement d’identifier les obstacles et les facilitateurs au bon déroulement de la transition occupationnelle. Méthode : Une étude phénoménologique interprétative a été réalisée et trois participant·es (qui se trouvaient entre un an et un an et sept mois post-AVC) ont été questionné·es lors d’un entretien semi-dirigé. Les données ont été analysées à l’aide de la méthode de Colaizzi et l’utilisation du Modèle de l’Occupation Humaine [MOH]. Résultats : Cinq thèmes principaux sont ressortis de l’analyse. « La motivation à s’engager dans des occupations», «La participation occupationnelle», «L’environnement», «La modification des habitudes et des rôles » et « La négociation identitaire ». Les survivant·es n’identifient pas clairement d’étapes occupationnelles dans leur processus de transition. En effet, en fonction des besoins prioritaires, de l’environnement de soins et des intérêts personnels du·de la survivant·e, les étapes de la réadaptation varient. Le processus de transition occupationnelle peut être mis en parallèle avec un processus de deuil vis-à-vis de l’identité antérieure à l’AVC des participant·es, identité qui comprend leurs rôles et donc leurs occupations. Plusieurs obstacles à la transition occupationnelle ont pu être identifiés tels que le rejet social, la perte de contrôle et les barrières physiques. A l’inverse, l’espoir, l’environnement social et le fait de donner du sens sont des facilitateurs qui soutiennent le processus. Conclusion : Les éléments recueillis et analysés au cours de cette étude permettent d’identifier des thématiques qui devraient être approfondies dans d’autres études ou auprès d’une cohorte plus importante.

Realist Japan? An examination of Japanese foreign and security policy under Abe Shinzo in three case studies

description: How can international relations theory best explain the motivation and dynamism behind the making of Japan’s foreign and security policy in the twenty-first century? This research provides one answer to this question by examining the policymaking of the Abe administration from 2012 to 2020 (also known as ‘Abe 2.0’). It is still theoretically puzzling as to why and how the Abe administration could bring about historical changes in Japan’s foreign and security policy. Structural realism might attribute such policy shifts to a changing of balance of power. Meanwhile, constructivism argues that the changes of domestic identity and norms would matter. Although different theories may have some explanatory power, this research argues that none of these approaches can solely explain the mechanism of Abe 2.0 foreign and security policy. Rather, as argued here, neoclassical realism (NCR) that incorporates domestic factors into a systemic analysis can best explain the changes in Japan’s foreign and security policy during Abe 2.0. To make this case, this thesis tests a NCR framework in the three exemplary cases of Japanese foreign and security policy under Abe 2.0: 1) security policy reforms and alliance management with the United States; 2) the management of Japan-China relations; and 3) the promotion of the Free and Open Indo-Pacific (FOIP) concept. Relying principally on Japanese-language sources and qualitative data, it reveals that domestic factors, especially leader images and policymaking processes, played significant roles to translate structural factors, namely the rise of China, into specific policy planning and outcomes. It concludes that while systemic stimuli primarily drove Japan’s realist shift in foreign and security policy, domestic intervening variables solidified policy agendas and approaches and occasionally moderated policies in a more practical rather than strictly realist direction.
