What in Okinawa about Okinawan Environmental Problems? : An Ouline of the Okinawa Cross-Cultural Environmental Experiences Yamashiro, Shin open access Okinawa-U.S. relations environmental problems concept of environmetal problems environmetntal history As we all may agree, environmental issues do not stand by themselves; they are not merely about preservation and conservation of the physical environment and animals living somewhere. They are also social and cultural problems. My main goal is to analyze the process thorough which "Okinawan environmental problems" have become recognized as "Okinawan" problems. By explaining the social, cultural, and economic situation in postwar Okinawa, I will attempt to delineate some of the essential elements that constitute people's idea of "environmental problems" and show some of the early environmetnal problems that across during 1970s as an example of the cross-cultural experience of Okinawa. I will conclude that Okinawan environmental problems were created through cross-cultural interaction between Okinawa and the U.S. military. 紀要論文 The American Studies Center of the University of the Ryukyus 琉球大学アメリカ研究センター 2005 eng departmental bulletin paper VoR http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12000/6784 http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12000/6784 https://u-ryukyu.repo.nii.ac.jp/records/2004003 1349-1032 AA12001323 The Okinawan Journal of American Studies 2 51 56 https://u-ryukyu.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/2004003/files/KJ00004187951.pdf
