It’s probably the world’s most secretive country. We take a peak inside, seeing the secrecy and propaganda surrounding a country that is famous not only for the awful living conditions of its citizens, but also for challenging the world with its nuclear programme. We visit North Korea under the vigilant eye of the authorities, which accompany the team on a route visiting the symbolic sites of the world’s last real socialist regime. Half a century after the Korean War, two decades after the end of the Cold War and with the recent memory of the great famine, the North exalts ideological purity and preaches the dream of reunification with the South. Meanwhile, as South Korean companies take advantage of the investment opportunities offered by Pyongyang, North and South Koreans alike share the 'big dream'.

India's first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, left behind a legacy of both great achievements and surprising defeats. Most notably, he failed to resolve the Kashmir dispute with Pakistan and the territorial conflict with China. In the fifty years since Nehru's death, much ink has been spilled trying to understand the decisions behind these puzzling foreign policy missteps. Mahesh Shankar cuts through the surrounding debates about nationalism, idealism, power, and security with a compelling and novel answer: reputation. India's investment in its international image powerfully shaped the state's negotiation and bargaining tactics during this period.The Reputational Imperative proves that reputation is not only a significant driver in these conflicts but also that it's about more than simply looking good on the global stage. Considerations such as India's relative position of strength or weakness and the value of demonstrating resolve or generosity also influenced strategy and foreign policy. Shankar answers longstanding questions about Nehru's territorial negotiations while also providing a deeper understanding of how a state's global image works. The Reputational Imperative highlights the pivotal—yet often overlooked—role reputation can play in a broad global security context.

Government-made hate against foreign schools, technical intern trainees, refugees, immigration authorities, etc. The essence of discrimination against foreigners. In March 2021, a Sri Lankan woman, Wishma Sandamali, 3, died at the Nagoya Immigration Bureau. Her death reveals the darkness of immigration that has been veiled for many years, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is an incident that symbolizes the history of discrimination against foreigners by public authorities. After the war, the Japan government enacted the Alien Registration Law, which was mainly aimed at managing Koreans, who accounted for 9% of the foreigners living in Japan. In later years, as the number of residents from other countries increased, legal and institutional immigration policies for all foreigners were strengthened. Foreigners suffering from human rights violations complain unanimously. "We are not animals, we are humans!"
