MONEY DOESN'T TALK, IT SWEARS...

This occasional blog focuses on 1) The corporations and entrepreuners who influence US foreign policy and then make money from its implementation; 2) The politics and economics of the Pacific Rim; 3) The state of the US and global labor movement (or what's left of it); 4) What's happening in Korea and Japan from the perspective of someone who was raised in Tokyo and Seoul during the height of the Cold War; and 5) Music and culture. The title comes from a Bob Dylan song.

    • I grew up in Japan in the years immediately after the US occupation. There's some similarities, and a lot of differences, between what happened in Japan from 1945 to 1953 and what has occured in Iraq since the US invasion of 2003. In 2002, just before Bush ordered US forces into Iraq, I published a long article about the role of US missionaries in occupied Japan in Killing the Buddha, an eclectic web magazine about religion. It includes some great photographs taken by my father, who went to Japan as a missionary/aid worker in 1947.
