| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Over the past academic year I published a Book Hokkaido Dairy Farm: Cosmopolitics of Security on the Frontiers of Japan. Albany: State University of New York Press and an article “Savoring Slackness in Kingston: Independent Japanese Tourists and Jamaican Dancehall” Asian Ethnology 82 (2). I put together a panel 4-member panel for the American Anthropology Association in Seattle Suspended Transitions in the Lives and Languages of Newcomers and other individual presentations, a book interview with New Books Network, book launch combined with Kyoto University and The Italian School of East Asian Studies and paper and chair at Anthropology of Japan in Japan (AJJ) at Meiji University. I continued fieldwork in Hokkaido though this is more difficult based in Akita, explained below.

Current Status of Research Progress
3: Progress in research has been slightly delayed.
Reason
Hansen, Paul. Sussanne Klien eds. (Forthcoming) The Rural Japan Handbook Contract with University of Amsterdam Press. Co-edited with Sussanne Klien. (deadline 2025)
and (Forthcoming). Contract with Lexington books A Cosmopolitical Countryside: One Health and Wellbeing on the Periphery (deadline Aug. 2024) however the move to Akita University and the somewhat sporadic teaching schedule and committee work has made both research in Hokkaido and finding time to write difficult. I hope to finish research this summer and if possible meet the Lexington Press deadline. Work is on schedule for The Rural Japan Handbook.

| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
The plan is to continue with some follow up interviews in the Kamishihoro area of Tokachi this summer...The plan is late August and early September. After this, what really remains is writing and presenting the results.
