This article reviews the academic literature on the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) budget and provides implications for future research. From the viewpoint of political science, the previous studies can be

categorized into two broad types ((1) building models to explain the U.S. DoD budget, (2) evaluating the

U.S. security policy through defense budget). However, I found three problems in this research field. The first is few discussions between incrementalism and anti-incrementalism. The second is an overall scarcity of research from the viewpoint of budget allocation. The third is no common measure to evaluate the DoD budget for understanding the U.S. defense policy. Further research is required to bridge the gaps.

Rapid and great changes of society are going on today in the global world. In the age of the “Fourth Industrial Revolution” it is necessary to see from a new point of view what it is to be human in a full sense of the word. In this report, we examine the role of “empathy” in becoming truly human and forming new relations of members of society.

I reviewed and examined the current situation about the influence of the 2D world. Japan's content industry is 67.7 trillion yen as of 2014, accounting for 2.5% of sales overseas market size. As an economic effect, it was suggested that employment creation due to an increase in affiliated companies, regional revitalization through cultural sacred places, etc., and culture formation were suggested. Besides, as influence on declining birthrate, influence on love circumstances was raised. Love simulation experiences in the 2D

world promote hormone secretion, stimulate metabolism and euphoria by activating respiration and cardiovascular system, improve euphoria for people who have physical and mental influences in the stress society , It has a beauty effect, suggesting that it is useful for maintaining and promoting health depending on the application method. On the other hand, due to the spread of mobile terminals, ubiquitousization also suggests reducing the involvement in the 3D world, which requires coordination with others.

Religious pluralism advocated by John Hick (1922-2012) continues to be criticized by Christian theology / philosophers. However, from the viewpoint of religious studies, this study considers not only criticism but also the effectiveness of it, and what is its significance.

From data on nursing school entrance and graduation, students with a low age group employed jobs in hospitals, high - age students employed jobs in clinics and elderly health facilities. However, we can compare many hospitals from briefing sessions where nationwide hospitals gather in one place now. Why a student with a low age group is employed in a hospital and a student with a high age group is in a difference in nursing ability required by a medical institution thought to be a reason for employment in a clinic or an elderly health facility Is not it?

This paper examines what effect or effects a small word “chotto” (literally, a little, a bit, sort of ) has in expressing opinions about other fellow members in a peer group, on the basis of an analysis of language

phenomena observed in evaluations of students attending language teacher training courses. It is found that they utter this small word so that they reserve strict judgments about other members in order to avoid hurting their feelings.

Tianjin Rice does not exist in China. Tianjin Rice is a dish arranged in Japan.
