Tattoos In East Asia: Conforming To Individualism, Morgan Macfarlane
The Commons: Puget Sound Journal of Politics
Although Japan, South Korea, and China share a similar history of tattoo criminality spanning thousands of years, in modern times they all hold different legal policies concerning the practice of tattooing.

China, on the other hand, has few restrictions on body art. This paper explores this interesting difference via observational fieldwork in the major cities of Tokyo, Seoul, Shanghai and Beijing as well as interviews with local people within and outside the …

Role Of Technology In Economic Development: With Special Reference To India, Kishore Kulkarni
