"For Washington, dealing with a rising Asia may be the most challenging of all its regional relationships."
Asia is particularly important as an engine for change over the next 15 years. A key uncertainty is whether the rese of China and India will occur smoothly. A number of issues will be in play, icluding the future of the world trading system, advances in technology, and the shape and scope of globalization. For Washington, dealing with a rising Asia may be the most challengeing of all its regional relationships. One could envisage a range of possibilities from the US enhancing the role as regional balancer between contending forces to Washington being seen as inceasingly irrelevant. Both the Korea and Taiwan issues are likely to come to head, and how they are dealt with will be important factors shaping future US-Asia ties as well as the US role in the region. Japan's position in the region is also likely to be transformed as it faces the challenge of more independent seculity role.
The sun, the Moon, the Earth and its contents, are material to form greater things, that is, etherial things --- greater than the Creator himself made.

デューイの本からの孫引き
Le mana polynésien, lui-même, symbolise non seulment la force magique de chaque être, mais aussi son honneur, et l’une des meilleures traductions de ce mot, c7set : autorité, richesse.
(p.144)

問題は、de chaque êtreのところ。la force magique（マジカルな力）がそれぞれのものにあるのは、一時的な事なのか恒常的な事なのか。
アニミズムを考える場合決定的な問題だ。
これまでの解釈では、ものの内部に恒常的に存在している魔術的な力としてマナを解釈していたようなのだが、
モースのこのテキストからはそのことは明確には出てこない。
「各々のものにそのとき着いている魔術的な力」とも解釈できるのだ。
