A part of the international joint workshop between a team research of the International Institute for
Japanese Studies: ’Mouths and Noses: A Cultural History of the Junctures between the Human Body
and the Outside World in Japan’ and the bilateral exchange programme between Slovenia and Japan:
’Peasant Economy in Sustainable Development: Historical Myth or Reality?’ will be organised as
HAELE-14 via Zoom’s online high-flex. In particular, we would like to focus our deliberations on the
