The journal consists of articles, papers from symposium, and an extensive book review section. Since the Summer 1983 edition (Vol. 9, No. 1) the journal has generally included a section for comments and opinions on controversial issues in the field and to introduce questions for scholarly debate. This policy formally recognized the de facto role of the journal as a means of communicating and debating long-standing differences in the field. This change probably occurred in response to a series of controversial debates concerning the work of E.H. Norman, a Canadian historian of Japan. A glance at a few recent issues of the journal reveals a nearly even split between articles in the fields of Literature , History , and Political Science , as well as occasional articles in the field of Anthropology . The journal is published twice a year, Winter and Summer. Recent issues can be found on ProjectMuse , and issues older than 5 years can be found on JSTOR . INDEXES The Winter 1985 (Vol. 11, No. 1) and the Summer 1989 (Vol.15, No. 2) issues contain author indexes for each category in which the magazine is organized: Symposium, Articles, Opinion and Comment, and Book Reviews.
