...recent westernization in close proximity, Marker carefully avoids cutting which would imply an ironic intent. No attempt is made to explain the westernization of Japan, nor is the modern seen as un-Japanese. Like Koumiko and the city, tradition and modernity exist within the same framework, and any effect that the one has upon the other is not readily discernible to the outsider. The outsider can merely present an image, which is nothing more than a concrete memory...
Dovetail. Sato's government is saying, in effect, that it will allow an unwritten exception to these restrictions if the U.S. formally agrees to reversion for Okinawa; his regime, Sato feels, must win control of the island in order to stay in power and keep anti-American elements from gaining strength.

Vellucci doesn't have the slightest chance of doing this, of course, and might not even want to, but his advocacy of such action strikes responsive chords in his East Cambridge supporters. Even in normal times, which these are not, politics in the City are apt to be heavily charged with rhetoric; the passions inherent in the rent control issue were amplified by this political style...
