伝統と事業利益
世界第3位の経済大国である日本は、議会制君主制であり、一般的にはメディアの多元主義の原則を尊重している。
しかし、伝統や企業の利益の影響で、ジャーナリストは民主主義の番人としての役割を十分に果たすことが難しくなっている。
2012年に安倍晋三氏が再び首相になって以来、ジャーナリストは自分たちに対する不信感を訴え続けてきた。
フリーターや外国人記者を差別する「記者クラブ」制度が続いている。
ソーシャルネットワーク上では、ナショナリストグループが政府に批判的なジャーナリストや、福島第一原発事故や沖縄の米軍駐留などの「反愛」的なテーマを扱うジャーナリストを嫌がらせている。
政府は、内部告発者、ジャーナリスト、ブロガーが「違法に」入手した情報を公表した場合、最高10年の懲役に直面するという「特定秘密」を保護する法律についての議論を拒否し続けている。

Tradition and business interests
The world’s third biggest economic power, Japan is a parliamentary monarchy that, in general, respects the principles of media pluralism.
But journalists find it hard put to fully play their role as democracy’s watchdog because of the influence of tradition and business interests.
Journalists have been complaining of a climate of mistrust toward them ever since Shinzo Abe became prime minister again in 2012.
The system of “kisha clubs” (reporters’ clubs) continues to discriminate against freelancers and foreign reporters.
On social networks, nationalist groups harass journalists who are critical of the government or cover “antipatriotic” subjects such as the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster or the US military presence in Okinawa.
The government continues to refuse any debate about a law protecting “Specially Designated Secrets,” under which whistleblowers, journalists and bloggers face up to ten years in prison if convicted of publishing information obtained “illegally.”

ケナタッチ氏の書簡に対する、日本の抗議文がアップされるのをwktkしてまってます。あと前文部科学事務次官が実名で事情を話す覚悟を決められた由、敬意を表しまして、ぜひぜひ参考人招致を実現して頂きたいなと思いますね。
「国連のプライベートの権利に関する特別報告者が懸念を表明されたということですが、政府としてはどのような対応をとられますか。」
「まずですね、特別報告者という立場ですけども、これは独立した個人の立場で、人権状況の調査、報告を行う立場であって、国連の立場を反映するものではない。これは明確に申し上げておく。今回の書簡を受けてですね、政府外務省は、直接説明する機会が得られることも無く、一方的に発出したんです。この点、さらには同書簡の内容が明らかに不適切なもの、でありますので、強く抗議を行ったという、行ってます。それと同時に、テロ等準備罪処罰法案（名前違うよ）というのは、187の国と地域が締結する本条約締結するために必要な国内法整備であってですね。プライバシーの権利や表現の自由を不当に制約するできる利用がなされるということはまったく当たらないということですを強く抗議したということです。」
下のマニュアルのII methods of work B. Communication 37に、基本的には、レポートに掲載されるまでは機密扱いになるけど、特定の事情で特別報告者が、報告書より前に公開する必要があると判断すれば行うことができると書いてあります。なので、公開するのは全然問題ない。
菅さんの一方的な発出の部分ですが、どれくらい特殊な例なんだろうかと、ケナタッチ氏の場合は、ポストの歴史が浅いので記録がアーカイブされていないのですが、表現の自由に関する特別報告者のComments on legislation and Policyをつらつらと眺めてみると、
http://www.ohchr.org/EN/Issues/FreedomOpinion/Pages/LegislationAndPolicy.aspx
もうまったく普通に、書簡の最後に、この文書はこのウェブサイトで公開しますし、返信も同様に公開しますよ、というようなことが書いてあります。むしろ書いてないほうが珍しい。
アメリカの、宗教的属性で、旅行者のスクリーニングをやることをみとめる大統領令に対しての書簡や、旅行者にソーシャルメディアの情報を提出させる大統領令など、ドイツのインターネット監視の法律強化案に対するコメントでは
最後にお知らせさせていただきますが、この書簡は、特別報告者の任務のために、公に利用可能とするため、ウェブサイトに投稿いたします。
貴国政府からの返信に関しても同様に、同じウェブサイトに投稿し、また通常の表現に関する人権の議会に提出する活動報告書にも同様に掲載させていただきます。
Finally, I would like to inform that this communication will be made available to the public and posted on the website page for the mandate of the Special Rapporteur on the right to freedom of expression:
Your Government’s response will also be made available on the same website as well as in the regular periodic Communications Report to be presented to the Human Rights Council for its onsideration.
これに対して、アメリカやイギリス、ドイツなどの先進国は、形式だけにしても「忠告してくれてありがとう、これこれこういう法律だから大丈夫です。もしもっと疑問があったら答えるよ」とか「忠告には感謝しますが、現在議会で議論している最中で、議会の決定は政府とは独立しているから現段階で、どういう内容の法律になるかは答えられません。もし内容が明らかになったらすぐに情報提供させていただきます」みたいな感じの丁寧な応答がされています。
また先日書いたInvestigatory Powers Billについては、コメントはありませんが、同様にすぐにウェブサイトに投稿されています。こっちのほうが珍しいパターン。
理由を書いてある奴もたまにはあって、たとえば、中国のインターネットアクセス規制に関するコメント（これが中国から見えるのかは気になるね）では
また私は貴国政府に、この法案に関する私の見解をすぐに公に示すことをお知らせいたします。このプレスリリースは、私が、貴国政府と、この問題の疑問点を明らかにするために、コンタクトを取っていたことを示すことでしょう。
I would also like to inform your Excellency’s Government that I intend to publicly express my views on the draft legislation shortly. The press release will indicate that I have been in contact with your Excellency's Government to clarify the issues in question.
まぁ中国だと、こういう意見表明がされたことを自ら発表することなんて無いだろうしね。中国のレスポンスは「中国は法治国家だから大丈夫」見たいな感じで、西欧諸国のような修辞はないのが笑えた。
貴国政府の返答は、人権委員会の判断を仰ぐために作成する報告書にも公開されることになります。
今回の申し立ての重大性、緊急性を考慮しまして、今回の書簡の内容については、プレスリリースを行うこととすることも、貴国政府にお知らせいたします。
The response of your Excellency’s Government will be made available in a report that will be submitted to the Human Rights Council for its consideration.
Given the seriousness and urgency of the allegations, we would like to inform your Excellency's Government that we intend to issue a press release on the issues contained herein.
とこれも一方的に公開書簡を送ってるけど、このときは別に怒った反応はしてない。でもお得意の
「いかなる情報に基づいた書簡かは明らかではないが、特別報告間が得られた情報は正確ではないwhile it is not clear what information the communication based on, the information which Special Rappoteurs obtained is not accurate.」を書いてますね。
https://spdb.ohchr.org/hrdb/25th/Japan_31.01.14_%281.2013%29.pdf
まぁ正直、文章の修辞的な意味での丁寧さの欠如具合が中国の例に近い。
「最後に、立法段階が相当進んでいることに照らしまして、私の見解では、迅速な公共の関心が必要な事項であると判断いたします。ですから私は、プライバシーに関する特別報告者の任務として、貴国政府に、本書簡を公開するとともに、ウェブサイトに投稿すること、そして私の懸念についてプレスリリースをを行う準備をいたしますことをお知らせいたします。またこのことは、私たちと貴国政府が疑問点を明らかにするためにコンタクトを取っていたことを示すものであります。」
と書いているわけで、むしろ丁寧に理由まで書いているという意味では、通例に照らしてなんら失礼な文書ではないと思うわけですが、強くprotestしたということですので、文書の公開が楽しみでならないわけであります。
http://www.ohchr.org/Documents/HRBodies/SP/Manual_Operations2008.pdf
緊急提言として、通常の外交マナーにのっとらない行動もできるとか書いてあるけど、公開書簡はありふれてというか、少なくとも事後的にでも公開されるものは、迅速に公開されるので、まあUrgent Appealだから公開だっていうわけじゃなくって、コンタクトを取ってる証拠として公開するから、ちゃんと答えてよ、ということでしょうね。これによると基本的には60日以内には回答することになってるけど、トランプアメリカとか、中国とかは1年、2年回答してないのもあるし。
特別報告者としての活動による訴追等は受けない、逮捕、拘禁もされない、書いた報告書は誰にも訂正されない、等々書いてあるので、まぁ特別報告者がただのprivate（私人）ちう意味での個人だというのは相当苦しいですなぁ。
http://www.ohchr.org/Documents/Publications/FactSheet27en.pdf
The experts carrying out United Nations human rights mandates
are legally classified as “experts on mission” in the meaning of the
1946 Convention on Privileges and Immunities of the United Nations.
While they are working on their mandates, the experts enjoy functional
privileges and immunities that are specified inter alia in article VI,
section 22 of the Convention. These include:
“a) Immunity from personal arrest and detention and from seizure

f) The same immunities and facilities in respect of their personal
baggage as are accorded to diplomatic envoys.”
まぁ国連の特別報告者の見解がいつもいつも正しいわけじゃないのは当然でしょうから、疑義には正面から答えればそれだけですむのになぁという話。正直、「一方的に発出してー！」って切れられても戸惑うんじゃないかしら。他国の反応を見てみると。

I'm going to copy paste a full blog post of a research scientist at MIT here, who explains the situation at Fukushima much better than anyone else has, his message: no worries.
This post is by Dr Josef Oehmen, a research scientist at MIT, in Boston.
He is a PhD Scientist, whose father has extensive experience in Germany’s nuclear industry. I asked him to write this information to my family in Australia, who were being made sick with worry by the media reports coming from Japan. I am republishing it with his permission.
It is a few hours old, so if any information is out of date, blame me for the delay in getting it published.
This is his text in full and unedited. It is very long, so get comfy.
I am writing this text (Mar 12) to give you some peace of mind regarding some of the troubles in Japan, that is the safety of Japan’s nuclear reactors. Up front, the situation is serious, but under control. And this text is long! But you will know more about nuclear power plants after reading it than all journalists on this planet put together.
There was and will *not* be any significant release of radioactivity.
By “significant” I mean a level of radiation of more than what you would receive on – say – a long distance flight, or drinking a glass of beer that comes from certain areas with high levels of natural background radiation.
I have been reading every news release on the incident since the earthquake. There has not been one single (!) report that was accurate and free of errors (and part of that problem is also a weakness in the Japanese crisis communication). By “not free of errors” I do not refer to tendentious anti-nuclear journalism – that is quite normal these days. By “not free of errors” I mean blatant errors regarding physics and natural law, as well as gross misinterpretation of facts, due to an obvious lack of fundamental and basic understanding of the way nuclear reactors are build and operated. I have read a 3 page report on CNN where every single paragraph contained an error.
We will have to cover some fundamentals, before we get into what is going on.
Construction of the Fukushima nuclear power plants
The plants at Fukushima are so called Boiling Water Reactors, or BWR for short. Boiling Water Reactors are similar to a pressure cooker. The nuclear fuel heats water, the water boils and creates steam, the steam then drives turbines that create the electricity, and the steam is then cooled and condensed back to water, and the water send back to be heated by the nuclear fuel. The pressure cooker operates at about 250 °C.
The nuclear fuel is uranium oxide. Uranium oxide is a ceramic with a very high melting point of about 3000 °C. The fuel is manufactured in pellets (think little cylinders the size of Lego bricks). Those pieces are then put into a long tube made of Zircaloy with a melting point of 2200 °C, and sealed tight. The assembly is called a fuel rod. These fuel rods are then put together to form larger packages, and a number of these packages are then put into the reactor. All these packages together are referred to as “the core”.
The Zircaloy casing is the first containment. It separates the radioactive fuel from the rest of the world.
The core is then placed in the “pressure vessels”. That is the pressure cooker we talked about before. The pressure vessels is the second containment. This is one sturdy piece of a pot, designed to safely contain the core for temperatures several hundred °C. That covers the scenarios where cooling can be restored at some point.
The entire “hardware” of the nuclear reactor – the pressure vessel and all pipes, pumps, coolant (water) reserves, are then encased in the third containment. The third containment is a hermetically (air tight) sealed, very thick bubble of the strongest steel. The third containment is designed, built and tested for one single purpose: To contain, indefinitely, a complete core meltdown. For that purpose, a large and thick concrete basin is cast under the pressure vessel (the second containment), which is filled with graphite, all inside the third containment. This is the so-called “core catcher”. If the core melts and the pressure vessel bursts (and eventually melts), it will catch the molten fuel and everything else. It is built in such a way that the nuclear fuel will be spread out, so it can cool down.
This third containment is then surrounded by the reactor building. The reactor building is an outer shell that is supposed to keep the weather out, but nothing in. (this is the part that was damaged in the explosion, but more to that later).
Fundamentals of nuclear reactions
The uranium fuel generates heat by nuclear fission. Big uranium atoms are split into smaller atoms. That generates heat plus neutrons (one of the particles that forms an atom). When the neutron hits another uranium atom, that splits, generating more neutrons and so on. That is called the nuclear chain reaction.
Now, just packing a lot of fuel rods next to each other would quickly lead to overheating and after about 45 minutes to a melting of the fuel rods. It is worth mentioning at this point that the nuclear fuel in a reactor can *never* cause a nuclear explosion the type of a nuclear bomb. Building a nuclear bomb is actually quite difficult (ask Iran). In Chernobyl, the explosion was caused by excessive pressure buildup, hydrogen explosion and rupture of all containments, propelling molten core material into the environment (a “dirty bomb”). Why that did not and will not happen in Japan, further below.
In order to control the nuclear chain reaction, the reactor operators use so-called “moderator rods”. The moderator rods absorb the neutrons and kill the chain reaction instantaneously. A nuclear reactor is built in such a way, that when operating normally, you take out all the moderator rods. The coolant water then takes away the heat (and converts it into steam and electricity) at the same rate as the core produces it. And you have a lot of leeway around the standard operating point of 250°C.
The challenge is that after inserting the rods and stopping the chain reaction, the core still keeps producing heat. The uranium “stopped” the chain reaction. But a number of intermediate radioactive elements are created by the uranium during its fission process, most notably Cesium and Iodine isotopes, i.e. radioactive versions of these elements that will eventually split up into smaller atoms and not be radioactive anymore. Those elements keep decaying and producing heat. Because they are not regenerated any longer from the uranium (the uranium stopped decaying after the moderator rods were put in), they get less and less, and so the core cools down over a matter of days, until those intermediate radioactive elements are used up.
This residual heat is causing the headaches right now.
So the first “type” of radioactive material is the uranium in the fuel rods, plus the intermediate radioactive elements that the uranium splits into, also inside the fuel rod (Cesium and Iodine).
There is a second type of radioactive material created, outside the fuel rods. The big main difference up front: Those radioactive materials have a very short half-life, that means that they decay very fast and split into non-radioactive materials. By fast I mean seconds. So if these radioactive materials are released into the environment, yes, radioactivity was released, but no, it is not dangerous, at all. Why? By the time you spelled “R-A-D-I-O-N-U-C-L-I-D-E”, they will be harmless, because they will have split up into non radioactive elements. Those radioactive elements are N-16, the radioactive isotope (or version) of nitrogen (air). The others are noble gases such as Xenon. But where do they come from? When the uranium splits, it generates a neutron (see above). Most of these neutrons will hit other uranium atoms and keep the nuclear chain reaction going. But some will leave the fuel rod and hit the water molecules, or the air that is in the water. Then, a non-radioactive element can “capture” the neutron. It becomes radioactive. As described above, it will quickly (seconds) get rid again of the neutron to return to its former beautiful self.
This second “type” of radiation is very important when we talk about the radioactivity being released into the environment later on.
I will try to summarize the main facts. The earthquake that hit Japan was 7 times more powerful than the worst earthquake the nuclear power plant was built for (the Richter scale works logarithmically; the difference between the 8.2 that the plants were built for and the 8.9 that happened is 7 times, not 0.7). So the first hooray for Japanese engineering, everything held up.
When the earthquake hit with 8.9, the nuclear reactors all went into automatic shutdown. Within seconds after the earthquake started, the moderator rods had been inserted into the core and nuclear chain reaction of the uranium stopped. Now, the cooling system has to carry away the residual heat. The residual heat load is about 3% of the heat load under normal operating conditions.
The earthquake destroyed the external power supply of the nuclear reactor. That is one of the most serious accidents for a nuclear power plant, and accordingly, a “plant black out” receives a lot of attention when designing backup systems. The power is needed to keep the coolant pumps working. Since the power plant had been shut down, it cannot produce any electricity by itself any more.
Things were going well for an hour. One set of multiple sets of emergency Diesel power generators kicked in and provided the electricity that was needed. Then the Tsunami came, much bigger than people had expected when building the power plant (see above, factor 7). The tsunami took out all multiple sets of backup Diesel generators.
When designing a nuclear power plant, engineers follow a philosophy called “Defense of Depth”. That means that you first build everything to withstand the worst catastrophe you can imagine, and then design the plant in such a way that it can still handle one system failure (that you thought could never happen) after the other. A tsunami taking out all backup power in one swift strike is such a scenario. The last line of defense is putting everything into the third containment (see above), that will keep everything, whatever the mess, moderator rods in our out, core molten or not, inside the reactor.

How many words do native speakers know?
At present the best conservative rule of thumb that we have is that up to a vocabulary size of around 20,000 word families, we should
expect that native speakers will add roughly 1000 word families a year to their vocabulary size. That means that a five year old
beginning school will have a vocabulary of around 4000 to 5000 word families. A university graduate will have a vocabulary of around
20,000 word families (Goulden, Nation and Read, 1990).

以下、直訳文章（意訳が必要な部分は翻訳ソフトに補完させてできるだけなくしました）
駐米日本大使をいずれかの事務局の会議の日を読んだことがあるか？
私は 彼女は彼と普天間飛行場について話すために呼び出した、と聞いています。
MR. CROWLEY:
会議の過程で、大使は私たちに提示しました、協定に関連する問題が動くには多くの時間を必要であることを。
私たちは信じています、現在の計画である移転は最良の方法であると、それでも、私たちはこの問題に関する日本との協議を継続します。
あなたは「立ち寄った」と言ったが、彼はあなたの上司に呼び出されたと説明していた――
MR. CROWLEY:
わかりました、説明させてください――
MR. CROWLEY:
彼は……私は思う……私の……つまり彼は……私は彼は呼ばれていないと思います。
私は、実際に、彼は私達に会いに来たと思います。

ご覧のとおり、クローリーは呼び出していないと言い切れていません。
記者は(QUESTIONは記者の質問)呼び出しの裏を取るつもりで質問をしていますが、何とかごまかしたというのが本当のところではないでしょうか？

そこそこ新規IPが立ち上がってんだなーって改めて実感できた。
日本はどうなんだろう？
標記のダールフール関連記事を読ませて頂きました。
きちんと過去ログを追ってはいませんが、ダールフール危機関連の記事を精力的に拾い上げていらっしゃることに敬服しています。事実、今回の記事を目にしなければ、私はご紹介されたNYTやFTの記事その他を読むことはなかったでしょう。
しかし、ご多忙のせいでしょうが、訳し急ぎのご様子がそこここに見られるように思われますし、それをもとにしたご論旨もいささか明瞭でない部分もあるように思われます。一読して感じた違和感を整理するため、増田からですみませんが、記事を起してみました。
まず、FT記事の「展望」の紹介の仕方にやや違和感があります。その部分（''What happens next ... in exchange for surrendering Mr Bashir''）を私が要約するなら、構造は以下のように取ります（重要と考えるところを＜ ＞で囲って強調します）。
イ．（逮捕状を出した結果、）何が起こるかははっきりしない。
ロ．最も楽観的なシナリオは、体制内プラグマティストが政変を起こし、和平交渉へ向かうこと。
ハ．しかし、ICCの法的決定の＜政治的帰結＞がそううまくいくとしたら奇跡。
ニ．＜第一の理由＞は、逮捕がすぐに実現しそうにないから。
ホ．＜第二の理由＞は、バシールが＜全てを統べる＞独裁者ではないから。つまり、正義が追求されるなら、体制内のバシール以外で責を負うべき者も起訴されねばならないから。
特段の予備知識のない私の単純な読みを述べますと、ここでFTは、楽観的なシナリオに釘をさしています。ICCの逮捕状は、国際的に正義を追求するというメッセージだが、その原則は、罪に関与した体制派をより広く射程におさめるものであるため、内部からの変革をためらわせるのではないか、ということです。つまり、はっきりと言いきってはいませんが、正義と和平を天秤にかけています。
一方、前回ご紹介のクリストフ記者によれば、両者はトレードオフの関係にはないとされます（''I think Graham is wrong that that's the trade-off, and I agree with Tutu that there won’t be peace until there is an element of justice.'' この部分の紹介はより原文に沿った形にしてもよいのではないかと思います）。彼は基本的にICCの決定を肯定的に見ているようです。
続く文章を読んだ限り、ブログ主様はFT寄りのように見えますが、このあたりを「微妙に異なっている」等々とぼやかす必要はあるのでしょうか。
また、この問題に関しては、国務大臣と民兵指導者それぞれ一名に対し、2007年4月の段階で、ICCから既に逮捕状が出ていることも留意されるべきではないかと思います。
次の論点、悲観的なシナリオ、スーダン南北の内戦再点火に移ります。「クリストフ記者の洞察が重要」とのことですが、どの部分かやや不明確なように思います。
彼は、包括的和平合意は既に著しく不安定となっているのであり、逮捕状がその流れを悪化させるとは見ていません。そして、南部は独立に向かっているが、石油資源喪失を阻止するため、北部は戦う（''fight''）だろう、と前回ご紹介の記事で述べています。その一方で、逮捕状は戦いを抑止する効果を持つだろうとも述べています（''there’s vast uncertainty about the CPA, but I don’t think there’s any reason to think that an arrest warrant for Bashir worsens the trajectory. Right now, the South is headed for independence in 2011, and the North will fight to prevent that because the South has oil. Frankly, an arrest warrant may make it less likely that Khartoum will fight (or make it less able to fight), perhaps averting a resumption in the north-south war.''）。つまり、南北の火種は非常に大きいが、逮捕状にはある程度の抑止効果があるという見解のようです。
文章を拝見した限り、ブログ主様は、「南北問題は再燃する可能性」を重視していらっしゃるように見えます。
この再燃を促すかもしれない逮捕状、その火種の大きさという前提に立って、ブログ主様は、その逮捕状を出した「ICCを支える諸国」の責任へと言及されています。そこの論旨には基本的に賛成なのですが、いくばくかの違和感を感じますので、述べてみます。
まず、FTの訳について、一文だけ、こなれているようには見えないので、不出来ですが拙訳を出します。
もしICCがこの件でへまをやり、スーダンが崩壊していくのを世界が傍観するようなことになったなら、水曜日の決定は、人権の勝利では全くなかったことになるというリスクがあるのです。
（''For if the ICC bungles this case, and the world stands by as Sudan crumbles, there is a risk that Wednesday’s decision will prove no triumph for human rights.''）
スーダンでは確かに人権が蹂躙されてきました。とはいえ、人権が完全に空文化することはないでしょうし、ICC加盟国＜だけ＞の責務でもないでしょう。
お示しの地図にあるように、スーダンはICC加盟国ではありません。それなのに、どうしてICCが逮捕状を発行したのでしょうか。それは、＜国連安保理＞がICCに付託したからです。つまり、今回の逮捕状の件について、「ICCを支える諸国」に安保理常任理事国が「含まれていない」とされることには賛同できません。
もちろん、「ICCを支える諸国」の責任の重さは言うまでもないでしょうし、「日本に問われている部分も大きいはずだ」という結論に異議はありません。
最後に、このような問題について紹介の労を取って下さったことに改めて感謝します。

Japan’s politicians lose their way at a bad time
The DPJ talks about replacing bureaucrats with politicians in key ministerial positions
but says virtually nothing about what policies these newly empowered politicians would
implement. Ichiro Ozawa, its leader, is a survivor from the old school of Japanese
politics too busy micromanaging the election - he is his own Karl Rove - and too
unwilling to share decision-making with others in the party, especially those whom he
suspects are not entirely loyal to him, to be spending time preparing a transition.
民主党は省庁に議員を送り込むと言っているが、その議員がどんな政策を実施するのか
実質的に何も言っていない。小沢一郎は保守的な日本の政治家であり選挙対策ばかりで
忙しい。政策決定を党の中の誰とも共有するつもりがなく、とりわけ小沢に完全に忠誠を
The other day I asked an MP who is one of the party’s economic policy specialists what
fiscal policies the DPJ would employ to deal with what is shaping up to be Japan’s worst
postwar recession. His answer: “We haven’t thought much about that yet.”
先日、民主党の経済政策の専門家の一人である衆院議員に戦後最悪の不況に対する民主党の政策に
ついて尋ねたら、彼は「まだあまり考えてない」と答えた。
There will be more destruction, perhaps including the demise of both the LDP and DPJ
and the formation of new parties. Whatever the political goings-on, there is no
optimistic short-term scenario for Japan.
おそらく自民党と民主党の両方の崩壊や新党の形成を含む崩壊がやってくるだろう。
どんな政治的事件だとしても、日本にとって短期的に楽観できるシナリオはない。
At some point the public will grasp the seriousness of the economic troubles and demand
change. But that crisis mentality does not exist today. Therefore things will not only
get worse before they get better. They will get worse before the political system comes
up with policies that even stand a chance of making them better.
ある時点で大衆は経済問題と需要変化の深刻さを理解するだろう。しかし現時点では
そのような危機は心の中には存在しない。したがって政治システムが有望な政策を
思いつく前に状況は悪化するだろう。

同志社大学大学院 総合政策科学研究科 総政リレーコラム ＧＭ-ＵＡＷの苦悩
http://sosei.doshisha.ac.jp/column/07.html
3. アメリカ資本主義の中の労働といえば、個々人の労働成果の高低が報酬の多寡と連動し、個人差が大きい「成果主義的」な報酬システムや条件のよい企業を求めて転々と転職するような流動性の高い労働市場をイメージしがちである。たしかに成長過程にある新興IT企業やホワイトカラー労働者では、それらと近似する現実のあることを否定はしない。だが、労働組合に組織されたユニオンセクターで働く多くのブルーカラー労働者にはそれとは全く異なるしくみと慣行があるのが実態であり、このランシング工場もその例外ではない。たとえば、組合員内部には、階層格差が全くなく、したがって入職してから経験を積むにつれてより上位の地位に昇進するキャリアもない。細かくみると、チームリーダーには多少の上乗せ賃率（時間当たり0.5ドル）があったり、修理などを行う保全労働者とラインのオペレーターとでは時間賃率に差があったりするが、工場労働の大半を占めるラインのオペレーターの時間賃率はいかなる部門と職種であれ、また年齢、勤続、性別に関わりなく全くの同一額である（時給26.16ドル）。要するに働きぶりの個人差を反映する査定や熟練形成に伴う昇進キャリアのない世界が厳然と存在しているのである。査定があり、職長（フォアマン）への昇進キャリアのある日本の工場組織とアメリカのそれとの大きな違いがここにある。
中岡望の目からウロコのアメリカ >> アメリカ最大の自動車メーカーGMの経営危機の真相
http://www.redcruise.com/nakaoka/?p=171
さらに、価格競争でもＧＭは劣勢に立たされている。同社は一台の車を作るのに23時間かかるのに対して、日産ではわずか18時間に過ぎない。いわばＧＭは低生産性企業なのである。こうした生産性の低さに加えて、ＧＭの経営を圧迫しているのが同社の労働者に対する健康保険と年金制度である。ＧＭは、単に売上規模だけではなく、その優れた経営理念によっても米国資本主義を代表する企業であった。昨年亡くなった経営学者ピーター・ドラッカーは１年以上にわたってＧＭの経営分析を行い、その結果に基づいてＧＭの経営に対して「労働者を大切にする企業」であれという勧告を行った。
その勧告に基づいて、現在のＧＭの労使関係が構築された。おそらく全米自動車組合（ＵＡＷ）とＧＭの関係は、良好であると言っていいだろう。ＧＭの健康保険制度はきわめて労働者に手厚いので知られている。同社では、健康保険制度の対象者は現職の労働者だけでなく、退職者にも適用される。05年の対象者数は１１０万人で、その費用総額は54億ドルにも達している。ＧＭの労働者の時給は26ドルで、一般の製造業の労働者の賃金よりも70％高い水準になる。これに健康保険と年金経費を含めると、時間当たり賃金は約70ドルに達するという推計もある。そのコストを一台当たりに換算すると、１５００ドルに相当する。米国で生産している日本の自動車メーカーの場合、約４５０ドルであるから、いかにＧＭの製造コストが高いかが分かるだろう。
さらに米国の自動車メーカーでは、レイオフ（一時帰休）された労働者は“ジョブズ・バンク”に登録され、賃金が支払われているのが普通である。ＧＭでは、そうした労働者が７５００名いるといわれる。こうした費用も、ＧＭの高コスト構造の要因となっている。
Take Action: Respect for Toyota Workers
http://www.unionvoice.org/campaign/Toyota
Workers at Toyota's Georgetown, Ky., plant need your support. Employees who are injured at work have lost their jobs. Full-time workers are being replaced with temporary workers who make half the pay and have little or no health insurance.
というかこれはこのことなのかな？
自動車工場で奴隷として働いているオマエら、目玉よく見開いて読め

そんなトヨタもアメリカで人件費削減だってよ。人件費削減して、時給いくらになると思う?
「現行の米国工場の従業員の時給を落とすつもりはないと言う。だが新規に採用される従業員の給料は、地域の製造業の平均賃金を50％以上上回ることはなくなる。新制度に従うと、地域の製造業の賃金が14ドルのデュペロでは、トヨタの従業員の時給は20ドルを超えない程度になる。」
人件費削減して時給20ドルだってよ。時給2500円だ。
UAW - Features : Workers’ Rights Board hears concerns of Toyota workers; Panel recommends limits on use of temporary workers
http://www.uaw.org/news/features/vw_fst1.cfm?fstId=19
A major concern is the company’s widespread use of so-called “temporary” workers, who work for months and even years in hopes of winning full-time employment. They earn $13 an hour - less than half the wages earned by full-time Toyota manufacturing workers.
