This book analyzes the reception of Leo Strauss and his political
philosophy in Northeast Asia. By juxtaposing the central idea of
Strauss's political philosophy with the question of modernity, the
contributors explore the eclectic adaptations of Strauss in
Northeast Asian countries as a philosophical appropriation across
cultures. Examining how Strauss's philosophy was first introduced
in Northeast Asia, the book sheds light on the similarities and
differences in experiences, challenging the dominant approach which
attributes various receptions of Strauss in Northeast Asia solely
to sociopolitical circumstances. This book also seeks to move
beyond a China-centric approach to investigate the possible
transcultural appeals of Strauss's political philosophy by
exploring the cases of Japan and South Korea. Appealing to a wide
network of scholars and practitioners in East Asia engaged in
rethinking cultural particularities, this volume will be attractive
to upper-level undergraduate students, graduate students, and
advanced researchers in political philosophy, political theory, and
Asian politics.

interpretation, Hoare logic and types, functional programming and
semantics, model checking, program analysis, medley, and
programming models.
Though Mana is somewhat able to counteract the effects of the
Tribal Ends' tranquilizer, victory against Kaien seems impossible
in her weakened state. But Mana would rather admit defeat fighting
on her own than accept the help offered by Kuro, Keita, and Arie.
Will the strict laws of her clan prevent Mana from seeing all that
the coexistence equilibrium encompasses - both human and
mototsumitama - and the possibility of camaraderie between them?
Will a newly forged bond between mototsumitama and human be what
ultimately saves them all?
In the pure home of the Shishigami clan, Kuro and Keita prepare to
face Reishin Shishigami and stop him before his terrible vision for
the future is realized. Despite what Kuro and Keita know about the
shared history of humans and the mototsumitama and the events that
led to mototsumitama dominance, Reishin's plot to downsize the
human population is too cruel to bear! But in the heart of the
Shishigami's territory, an unexpected enemy arises to decisively
correct the imbalance of the world-the ancient genuine ones
themselves! With such mighty foes before them, do Keita and Kuro
have the strength to change the fate of all mankind?!

Balancing a normal existence and an unbreakable pact with a divine
being is anything but easy. Much to his chagrin, Keita is
discovering this the hard way. Try as he might to distance himself
from recent events, Keita can't shake Kuro, the mototsumitama who
saved his life. But when the stakes get higher and another
human-mototsumitama pair comes looking for a fight-one with Keita's
childhood friend, Akane, as the prize-Keita is forced to reevaluate
his attitude and stand by both his old and new friends. Who will
emerge victorious?
