Moeka Iida
Moeka Iida appears in The Mourning Show: The Politics of Khamenei’s Funeral as the contributor explaining Japan’s post-divorce Joint Custody Reform. The segment uses one mother’s experience, weak visitation practice, simple administrative divorce procedures, and changing paternal involvement to show why legal reform arrived after social norms had already begun shifting.
Her analysis frames the reform as a lagging institutional response rather than a simple technical amendment. The law has to operate inside a broader debate over whether parent-child obligations continue after marriage ends, especially in a society shaped by the Clean Break Divorce Model.
Kyiv brawl: Ukraine’s top general fired adds Iida as the reporter on jiko bukken, or Japanese incident properties. Her segment uses an apartment where an isolated elderly woman died unnoticed to connect death stigma, Buddhist mourning, housing discounts, Matsubara Tanishi, and Kachimodo to Housing Stigma Discount.
