A pinnacle of feeling: American literature and presidential government
In: 20/21
There is no more powerful symbol in American political life than the presidency, and the image of presidential power has had no less profound an impact on American fiction. A Pinnacle of Feeling is the first book to examine twentieth-century literature's deep fascination with the modern presidency and with the ideas about the relationship between state power and democracy that underwrote the rise of presidential authority. Sean McCann challenges prevailing critical interpretations through revelatory new readings of major writers, including Richard Wright, Gertrude Stein, Henry Roth, Zora Neale.

Dokra works in Bikna: The pinnacle of excellence of the ancient crafts
The name Dokra or Dhokra was formally used to indicate a group of nomadic people scattered over Bengal, Orissa and Madhya Pradesh in India and now is applied generally to a variety of shaped and decorated products created by the 'lost wax' process. One of such important group of families are located in Bankura at Bikna village ,West Bengal .The traditional theme of these metal sculptures include images of Hindu God and goddess along with figures of people, elephants etc and also include various ornaments and decorated things. This technique was traced far as ancient Chola Dynasty to make various Chola bronzes statues. First an image was made of wax or other medium like dhuna .This was covered with clay and allow drying, a tiny hole was made on it. When it heated the molten brass replaced the original impression as the wax subjected to vaporize due to heat. Villagers involve in these craft making process they neither have any agricultural land nor any other source of income. It becomes difficult to lead their lives depending totally on these product materials as they hardly get reliable prices and hold the demands throughout the year. A case study made on it tries to promote the product materials along with the artisans' lives to draw government and other organizational attention to enlightening their craftsmanship, enhance souvenir industry and give better way of life to the people involved in it.

Quiet Power: Japan's China Policy in Regard to the Pinnacle Islands
In: The Pacific review, Band 18, Heft 2, S. 159-188
ISSN: 1470-1332
How should Japan's foreign policy or role in the world be characterized? This question has been under discussion for some four decades, & answers have often been put in terms of 'power'. By using a new framework for analyzing foreign policy -- what is called 'relational power analysis' -- this article aims to offer a conceptually more coherent picture of Japan's foreign policy or role in the world in terms of power. It does so by assessing a 'litmus test' for Japan's foreign policy, namely the dispute with China over the Pinnacle (Diaoyu/Senkaku) Islands. In particular, the article analyses new materials on Japan's response to the Territorial Waters Law passed by China in 1992, which strongly reasserted China's claim to the islands. It concludes that Japan exerted power over China in regard to the issue & suggests that it did so using mostly civilian instruments along non-traditional dimensions, for example, positively & defensively. What is called 'ideational statecraft' -- or attempts to exert influence relying primarily on the transmission of ideas, norms & symbols -- is a part of the relational power framework, & it proves appropriate to the present analysis. Japan's ability to affect the PRC with such instruments, however, is helped by the fact that leading Chinese policy-makers prioritized economic development & modernization over sovereignty. The wider implication of such conclusions is the idea that Japan is a quiet but not silent power in world affairs. References. Adapted from the source document.
