Iggy the Stray Dog - ch2 (1/2)
Author: Otsuichi
Original concept: Araki Hirohiko
Originally published: JOJO Magazine 2022 Spring
*** This is a fan translation made purely for entertainment. Please do not repost/reuse/etc without my permission and credit! ***
Note: Since the next three chapters are very long and I don't want to keep you waiting forever, I decided to split them up into 2-3 parts. Thank you for your patience, I'm super excited to deliver the rest of this short novel!
Manhattan Island is located at the mouth of the Hudson river. It is four kilometers in width, twenty kilometers in length, a sandbank elongated in a north-south direction. Navigator Henry Hudson discovered it in 1609 and it is said that the Dutch East India Company purchased it from Native Americans for 24 dollars in 1626. Its name Manhattan translates to „the island of many hills” in their language.
The morning after my arrival, the air is still clouded by yellow. White steam rises from the gutters all over. I buy a toasted sandwich at a corner store to eat. Crispy bacon and fresh lettuce are held between fragnant bread.
I take the subway on my way to the city center to participate in the „stray dog hunt”. Passing ticket control and ascending the stairs, I find myself in a desolate place. It is a district with empty bear cans lying around and closed shutters of shops bearing graffiti. On one side stands a brick building, the ground floor offices of which belong to a company specializing in pest extermination.
Its name is Reliable Pest Control Services, or RPCS for short. In addition to pest control, they undertake everything from vermin extermination and cleaning up buildings to waste management. At this time, the Speedwagon Foundation has contacted the manager, requesting their help capturing Iggy in exchange for financial support.
As I state the purpose of my visit at the reception desk, a large, middle-aged Spaniard shows up. His stern face looks like it was carved from stone, and three vertical lines run down across his right eye – they seem to be claw marks.
„You’re Avdol, right? The chief told me about you. So you wanna catch that damn Boston Terrier?”
„My American friend has entrusted me with this request.”
„I’ll let you watch, just make sure you’re not bothering us!”
„All right. For now, I would like to study your work. I won’t intervene or disturb you, I’ll just watch from a distance.”
„Admirable attitude, Egyptian.”
The Spaniard leads me inside the office. It is like a labyrinth of miscellaneous packages piled up on top of each other with desks, blackboards, a billiard table, a darts board and empty liquor bottles in the gaps between them. On an old sofa set, four men are gathered, exhaling cigarette smoke and playing poker.
„These guys are my team,” introduces them the Spaniard. The men put down their cards, turning their gazes to me, as if to observe me.  They all have vulgar faces. One of them clicks his tongue, putting out the cigarette he’s been smoking on an ashtray. He is a large, white man resembling a rugby player.
„So you’re the Foundation’s buddy? The chief told us if we keep an eye out for you the Speedwagon Foundation would pay us a nice sum. But y’know, this is a lot of extra work for us.”
„I will not bother you. All I wish is to stand by and watch your work from a distance, to see how the dog could be captured. I don’t believe that would increase your work at all.”
„You coming with us means you’ll be taking up a seat in the car. We’ll have to take less equipment like that!”
They are going to drive to Manhattan Island in two cars, one of them a van equipped with dog cages. The space in the vehicles is crammed with all sorts of nets and traps, tranquilizer guns and such. It appears that with my participation, they can load a lot less into the cars. The Spaniard tries to calm down the man.
„Hey, don’t say that. It’s not like animal traps are any good against that Boston Terrier, we’d be bringing them for nothing.” He pulled me away from the men. „They’re just pissed because that shitty dog got the best of them.”
„What do you mean by animal traps?”
„Cages you can’t leave once you’re caught in them, like bear traps. You know bear traps, right? Like the Gustave Courbet painting, „Fox caught in a trap”? The iron trap that the fox’s leg is stuck in. But no such trap can catch that Boston Terrier, they were useless even with his favourite coffee chewing gum inside. I don’t know how but he just ran away with the chewing gum, without triggering the trap.”
A map hangs on the wall, the places where Iggy have been spotted marked on it. He has been seen all over Manhattan. Wall Street, Times Square, he even seems to be frequenting the ferry to Liberty Island with the Statue of Liberty.
„I made some posters with his image and put them up all over Manhattan. I wrote on it that we’ll reward anyone that has any news, so we got some information from the citizens.”
He shows me an actual poster. Drawn on it is a foolish image of a Boston Terrier, drool dripping from his mouth.
„The claw marks on your face, was that also him?”
„A while ago we tried strike him down when he was taking a nap. We got a report and when we rushed there, he was basking in the sun, snoring like hell. I decided to shoot him with a tranquilizer gun from a distance. As I pointed the gun at him and aimed, he woke up but didn’t try to run away. He saw us and yawned without a care in the world. I pulled the trigger and a tranquilizer dart shot out. My aim was sure, no doubt about it.”
However, the dart didn’t hit its target. It flipped midair in front of the Boston Terrier, just as if it was being blocked by something invisible.
„I dunno why. Maybe it was a faulty dart, it changed its direction in the middle of its track. We had to try and catch him with a net, but that damn dog jumped up and scratched my face. He tore out some of my hair and farted once before escaping us. It’s a mystery what he ate that made him fart like that but it was putrid.”
I’m thinking about the invisible thing that was said to have deflected the tranquilizer dart. There was no way the dart was faulty. They couldn’t see it. Something invisible was present before Iggy and it protected him. I have a pretty good idea what that mysterious something could have been.
A bell’s sound echoes in the RPCS office. The staff member from the reception desk at the front entrance calls out to us. The men playing poker stand, leaving the room running.
„Where are you going?”
„The locker room. We’re changing into work clothes and leaving. Tha bell only rings when we get news of someone seeing that damn Boston Terrier. If we don’t hurry, he’ll get away!”
In a matter of minutes, they all finish changing into grey work clothes, getting inside both cars in the garage. I myself accompany them, getting inside the van carrying the cages. The van is driven by a slim, young Black man. The Spaniard sits in the passenger’s seat and I take my place behind them.
„The phone call came from someone living near the Harlem River, they saw that shitty Boston Terrier stealing chewing gum” says the Spaniard, folding out a map to check the route. The two cars take off, rushing towards the area facing Harlem River.
Inside the hurling car, I am debating whether I should tell the man with the strict face sitting before me that the Boston Terrier actually has a name. In the end, I decide not to do so. They wouldn’t care too much for what the dog’s name is anyway.
***
The north-eastern parts of Manhattan are mostly inhabited by immigrants. Most of the people passing us by are Puerto Rican or Mexican, the majority of the conversations I overhear are in Spanish. Many brown mansions stand by the riverside. The city of New York built these for low income citizens and they refer to them as a „project”. There are nearly 2900 of these „projects” in New York City, with roughly 420,000 people inhabiting them. Some apartments are used for drug trafficking, they are a hotbed for crime.
The stray dog hunting team gets out of the vehicles parking on the roadside and sets out looking around the neighborhood. I decide to stick with the Spaniard. First of all, he wants to meet and talk to the person reporting the dog.
The Spaniard approaches a young man of Latin American descent standing by a payphone on a street corner. He smells like marijuana.
„You’re the guys looking for the Boston Terrier, right?”
„Yeah. Can you tell us what you saw?”
„It was just now, like thirty minutes ago. A weird dog came out of that supermarket over there, it was eating something. The store clerk ran after it but it got away. It was black and white. I thought it was a French Bulldog but it had a slim body so I figured it was a Boston Terrier. I called the number from a poster when I saw that.”
The young man rubs his index finger and thumb together in a gesture of requesting his reward. The Spaniard hands him a couple of bank notes but he doesn’t seem impressed.
„Hey, this isn’t even enough for a beer!”
„If you have more info, I’ll give you more.”
The Spaniard sends the young man away and sets off in the direction of said supermarket. It is a small store standing in a dirty, graffiti-covered alleyway.      I call it a supermarket but it is nothing more than a private business, with colourful vegetables on its racks that look fresh and delicious. The store clerk, a fat Black woman, is standing there with a troubled look on her face. The Spaniard calls out to her.
„We heard a Boston Terrier stole some of your merchandise, is that true?”
„Yeah, just look at this!” she beckons. The Spaniard’s work clothes have the logo of his company embroidered, she must know he’s an expert of vermin extermination. Right as we step inside the supermarket we find a candy shelf. The goods have been stolen from it and the empty shelf is sticky with a clear liquid dripping off of it. „It’s just like ’Alien’, isn’t it? The movie. Have you seen it? The monster was drooling just like this.”
The store clerk furrows her brows. The Spaniard takes out a ballpoint pen from his chest pocket, picking up some of the liquid with its end and examining its viscosity and smell.
„It’s drool. Those shelves had coffee flavour chewing gum on them, am I right?”
„Exactly! A small black and white dog devoured it right here. I tried to catch it but it picked up the entire box and ran off. I reported it to the police as well, just in case, but I’m surprised to see that you guys showed up! Then again, there’s so much crime on these streets, the police must be very busy.”
Leaving the store, the Spaniard gets in touch with his men. Each of them carries a transceiver, making it possible to exchange information between each other so long as they are within a couple kilometers radius.
I decide to investigate our surroundings as well. I move through dirty alleyways scattered with trash, looking for a Boston Terrier.
The wind carries the stench of alcohol and urine. It is probably drunks standing in the alleys and taking a piss. A row of cars stand parking on the roadside. It is a lonely street with no people or cars passing by.
Someone from our team is questioning a vagrant, holding the handle of a large net. It is the white man that complained to me in the office and reminded me of a rugby player. It seems like his work clothes were about to burst with his muscles.
„Didn’t you see a dog around here? A small, black and white one. It has a short snout and it farts a lot.”
The vagrant our rugby player is looking down to is an elderly man, leaning back onto a building’s wall as he’s sitting on the ground. He put down a piece of cardboard to make his sitting place more comfortable. His mouth seems to be mumbling something in response to the rugby player’s question, however he can’t form his words properly, having lost all his teeth.
„There... right there...” The vagrant’s words come in fragments. He points a finger at the wall right across the street. I turn to the rugby player.
„I believe this old man is pointing us to around there.”
The rugby player glances at me, turning his gaze to where the vagrant is pointing.
„There’s nothin’ there. Nothin’ strange. Not a Boston Terrier, not a place where a small dog could hide.”
„But this old man is trying to bring our attention to something.”
On the other side of the line of parking cars is nothing but old brick buildings, lined up without so much as a crevice between them. The vagrant is pointing at one of those walls.
The rugby player shakes his head.
„That’s just a wall. We asked the wrong guy. Maybe he’s hallucinating!”
The vagrant, however, keeps on murmuring.
„...weird... how...? It’s gone... I don’t...”
I decide to walk across to the other side of the road.
„Hey, Egyptian! Don’t just do whatever you like! Come back here!” I hear the rugby player’s voice but I ignore him.
I approach the wall the vagrant is pointing to, and trailed a finger along it. Its surface is just slightly damp, but also coarse. It is probably the speckles of sand dancing in the wind that stick to it.
„Hey! Egyptian!”
An odd sense of discomfort comes over me. My finger tracing the wall gets caught in the corner of a brick, which then quickly crumbles. As I try to apply some force, my hand sinks into the brick wall.
„H-hey... what’s that?!”
What we thought to be a brick wall crumbles into sand. It collects into large heaps under my feet and a small alleyway appears on its other side. It looks like there isn’t a crevice between the buildings but in reality, they aren’t stuck together at all. It simply appeared so because the sand’s fine imitation made it look like they were lined up continuously. The vagrant likely found it odd that the alleyway that was supposed to be there disappeared, and tried to bring it to our attention.
Sand speckles dance around me from the collapse. When my vision clears, I realize something is hiding in the dim depths of the alleyway. It is small, small enough for me told hold in my hands.
He is chewing on something very, very loudly. He must have been hiding himself right here all along, creating a fake wall with sand.
„Is that you, Iggy?”
The moment I call his name, the chewing noises stop.
A pair of eyes appears in the dim light. I see the whites of them clearly. Apparently he still remembers his name being ’Iggy’. His self-awareness has him reacting to me calling his name.
Someone grabs my shoulder from behind with great force. It is the rugby player.
„Hey, hey, hey! There he is! I thought it was sand dancing, but there’s a street there now?  Looks like a dead end, so I guess he’s got no choice but to come over here, huh?” He fixes the net in his hands and takes off in the alley’s direction.
„Hey, wait!”
In response to the rugby player approaching him, he gets up on his four legs in the dark. His form is that of a small dog’s, but something is manifesting behind him.
The speckles of sand in the alley rise up, defying gravity, gathering in one place, taking shape seemingly too big to even fit the narrow alleyway behind the dog.
However, the rugby player doesn’t see it. It is a projection of life energy that regular people are unable to detect. Before his eyes, there is nothing but a single small dog.
He charges towards Iggy with his net. The giant behind Iggy moves, picking him up and jumping, scattering sand as it tramples the rugby player. The moment he hits the ground, it rushes out of the narrow alley. Its large body leaps over the line of parking cars with ease.
As it appears in a vast and well-lit place, I can take a good look at it in its entirety. The giant holding Iggy has the appearance of a dog with wheels. Its two front legs are dog-like, but its hind legs are missing, sporting car wheels in their place. On its head it wears feathers resembling Native American ornaments. It is a form blending machinery and organic life, scattering speckles of sand from its entire body.
A Stand. That is what I and my American friend referred as to such entities. Something standing by one’s side like a guardian. This must be the reason behind the odd sand related episodes happening around Iggy.
Stands do not possess a physical body. It is more like Iggy’s guardian. Some would call it a visualization of his psychic powers, others might even claim it as an evil spirit.
Iggy exchanges a glance with me, carried by his own Stand, then turns away as if he’s lost interest in me already. His Stand that leapt over cars so easily rotates its wheels, dashing away on the streets.
The rugby player stands up from where he fell on the ground and calls for assistance with his transceiver.
„He-he’s here! The Boston Terrier! Come right away!” He tries to chase after Iggy instantly, but he fails. The huge mass of sand that until just now has been forming a wall is now covering the ground. Before I could have noticed, it all centered on me. The sand swallows me up to the knee and firmly hardens. Without a doubt this is Iggy’s doing. Pulling as hard as I can, I free my legs but he has already disappeared behind a corner.
„Shit... don’t let him get away!”
The rugby player runs off, and I follow him.

Worldbuilding: Under the Umbrella of Information
One of the season 2 Gokenin Zankuro episodes has major espionage, thefts, and assassination attempts centering around... an umbrella.
Which just happens to have links to accurate maps of Japan foreign powers are trying to get their hands on. Because the year is circa 1845, a few years before Commodore Perry showed up in Edo Bay, and the British Empire, France, and Imperial Russia were all trying to grab a piece of access to Japan for a multitude of reasons. Some humanitarian, to get shipwrecked sailors repatriated. Most... not so much.
That’s the problem when you get beyond small groups. Large organizations, like nations, always have multiple goals. Many at cross-purposes to each other. And all of them - at least, the mostly sane ones - want more information than they have. Whether or not it’s ethical, or even legal, to get it.
If anyone’s drawing parallels to the growing problem of social media/companies wanting more and more of your personal information - no, that’s not an accident. Movers and shakers on a national level generally have always had money, one way or another, and looked for ways to get more of it. You’d think getting it by trade would be preferable to war... and then you read up on the Dutch East India Company, and similar efforts by the British and French, and all the shenanigans Russia pulled trying to get Sakhalin and points south. For too many centuries the operating principle of trade was often, “find a market and murder all your competitors in it”. Offer a better product? Who’d do a silly thing like that?
Ahem. Anyway. Information. People have it, and people want it. Maps are a big thing; with them you can find resources, markets, ports, and other very useful stuff. Accurate dictionaries are less noticed, but they are also extremely important. Especially when you’re trying to translate from one language to another. An English-to-Japanese dictionary (or vice-versa) is much more useful when you can also look at how the foreign language itself defines its own words. That may let you tease out nuances otherwise missed, or even wrong meanings due to someone misspelling when they scribble something down. Which can be pretty darn likely, if someone’s penning a hidden message in a hurry to be smuggled out!
All of which means you can have a crime, mystery, or adventure plot centered on what seem to be fairly innocuous items. And people. Who’d want to murder an astronomer in Edo Japan? Turns out a bunch of people, who wanted access to his accurate maps....

Procedure to get apostille for Belgium in India
Obtaining an apostille for documents in Belgium from India involves several steps. An apostille is a certification that validates the authenticity of a document for use in another country that is a party to the Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement for Legalization of Foreign Public Documents. Here’s a step-by-step procedure to get an apostille for Belgium in India:
Identify the Document: Determine which document(s) you need to apostille. Common documents include birth certificate apostille, marriage certificate apostille, educational certificate apostille, and other legal documents.
Verify the Document: Ensure that the document is issued by a recognized authority and contains the necessary signatures and seals.
Notary Public: Visit a local notary public to get your document notarized. The notary will verify your identity and the authenticity of the document.
Home Department Authentication: After notarization, you’ll need to get the document authenticated by the Home Department of your respective state. This step confirms the notary’s authority.
SDM (Sub-Divisional Magistrate) Authentication: Some states may require further authentication from the SDM in your district. Check with your state authorities to confirm if this step is necessary.
MEA (Ministry of External Affairs) Apostille: Once the document has been authenticated by the state authorities, you need to submit it to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) or its regional branch for apostille. You can do this by visiting the MEA office or sending it by post/courier. Pay the required fees, and the MEA will affix the apostille to your document.
Translation (if necessary): If your document is not in English or Dutch, you may need to get it translated into one of these languages. Ensure that the translation is done by a certified translator.
Apostille for Commercial Documents: If you have commercial documents, such as company registration certificates, you can obtain apostilles for these from the respective Chambers of Commerce or other relevant commercial authorities.
Collect the Apostilled Document: After the MEA affixes the apostille, you can either collect the document in person or request it to be sent back to you through a courier service.
Document Submission: Submit the apostilled and legalized document to the relevant authorities in Belgium as needed.
It’s essential to check the specific requirements and procedures with the relevant authorities, or any genuine apostille services agency as they can vary based on the type of document and jurisdiction. Additionally, the process may change over time, so it’s a good idea to verify the current requirements and fees before proceeding.

Hedgehogs and Foxes
Tumblr media
Capitalism is a handmaiden to government-sponsored development. It is indeed a catechism for any modernizing economy that its outfits most vital to national wealth invite the greatest degree of paternalism. Whether it is the vignettes of the British East India Company or the duopoly of the Central Pacific and Union Pacific companies a select group of firms perennially sit at the vanguard of growth. Behind these heavyweights a spectrum of intervention from promoting investment to facilitating trade is closely guarded by the government in the contingency where market imperfections run afoul of national security. The realpolitik of governments handpicking national champions centres on the strategy of a state’s competitive advantage against geopolitical rivals. It is axiomatic for any society that economics are never divorced from politics particularly where it concerns statehood. Think of how advantageous it is to have companies that are market leaders in a post-Westphalian world where they can unilaterally command the future of premium prices and technology. These high economic returns create greater wealth and jobs by soliciting an influx of investment. What manifests is a competitive advantage of market power which translates into the projection of political influence.
Two generic methods in the armoury of governments can create a moat around the companies through which they vicariously grow (Porter 1990). The first of these machinations is to fashion the institutional structure of a firm by way of taxes or regulation and the second is to shape its inputs namely as it relates to financial capital or skilled labour. A whole constellation of macroeconomic policy can be finessed into existence to encourage a firm’s competitive advantage sans precipitating any serious market distortion. To impart greater specificity there are tax breaks that can mitigate the risk for R&D or perhaps antitrust laws that may reduce entry barriers into a sector or better yet the use of fiscal policy to subsidize growth industries. Under the preserve of industrial policy the government can be of prominence as a medium for nascent firms to fledge into incumbents endowed with substantial marketshare. The merits behind managing markets instead of vouchsafing a carte blanche of autonomy are quite simple. If not for the light touch of statism firms would be grossly myopic and preoccupied with their immediate survival as read by their quarterly profits. On the other hand the longer time horizon granted by lawmakers enables firms to espouse a more considered strategy for sustainable growth (Harford et al. 2018).
Were it not for intervention in America’s past its likelihood of industrialization would be remote. A counterfactual to refute the upsides of laissez-faire economics is how the state might have evolved into the world’s breadbasket of cotton, tobacco and grains if not for government dirigisme. The viability of industrialization would have been in dispute under the chorus of vested interests agitating for agriculture’s dominance. In this hypothetical a resource-based economy could very well be fraught with underdevelopment in perpetuity until industries managed to get a purchase on markets less monopolized by foreign exports. This thought experiment might at first blush appear akin to speculation but in reality countries like Venezuela, Nigeria or Russia have been mired in this poverty trap. More consequentially the symptom aroused by such a condition is what the cognoscenti denominate ‘Dutch Disease’ whereby the abundance of primary goods crowds out value-added industries. In the absence of diversification a rentier state takes hold financed by the surge of its upstream production. The inflow of money causes the currency to appreciate diminishing the price competitiveness of domestic manufactures. A market distortion of this kind sacrifices long-term development for the sake of agriculture or other commodities.
Tumblr media
Behind the veneer of free markets sits the coefficient of state planning and public investment that have goaded struggling firms to modernize. Leaving markets to themselves in the capacity of supreme arbiters for development has remained pure fantasy as it pertains to the pedigree of post-industrial economies. The staple for rapid industrialization has been unchanged since time immemorial of a temporary autarky providing a buffer against foreign competition. Here it is paramount to spell out the rhetorical difference between ‘growth’ and ‘development’ for the reader. A growing economy may be enriched with capital yet its measure of prosperity is too monolithic and quantitative whilst being deprived of nuance. On the other hand a developing economy shows to be more qualitative and assimilates metrics like diversification, productivity, literacy, or living standards. The endgame is not merely to pump-prime industry but to modernize a country’s static comparative advantage whose externalities create capital-intensive firms requiring high-skilled labour, technology-push and wage growth. Such sophistication deepens the middle class and strengthens its purchasing power which in concert exercises an omnipresent multiplier effect. Industrial policy’s raison-d’être therefore lives in its foresight.
Between the skeptics and exponents of industrial policy there is a fundamental difference in each’s Weltanschauung. According to the hedgehog and fox paradigm by theorist Isaiah Berlin of the two the dissident who is firmly wedded to the doctrine of free markets views industrial policy as anathema to development. This ‘hedgehog’ who shuns complexity in favour of simplicity endorses the highly reductive idea that free markets alone offer the ideal stimulus for the creation of wealth. On the other hand the fox interprets industrial policy from a prism that is far more dynamic and sees it as a precision tool for the broader growth of not just the economy but of society. The fox who knows many things in stark opposition to the hedgehog’s parochialism espouses a portfolio approach by the government to assist industries in their resolve to modernize. In fact speculators would be less keen on ploughing their gains into firms without some assurance that their exposure would be de-risked by a large investor or in this case the sentinel that is government. Free market fundamentalism which is so near-sighted like the hedgehog then rhapsodizes about profits in ignorance of the gains to be won from a longer strategy and business cycle. Whilst the hedgehog is a shareholder the fox insists on being a valuable stakeholder.
The proverbial foxes who are stalwarts of industrial policy envisage the pantheon of advanced economies to be a function of development à la carte. When strategizing which part of the private sector induces the largest return on investment from the government’s munificence this act democratizes production. As marginal costs fall because of scale economies the lower price for goods that were once beyond the reach of average consumers transforms them into everyday essentials. Ordinary households become stronger vectors for an economy’s development as a result. The real linchpin here to the species of capitalism adhered to by foxes is the foresight of the multiplier effect so prominent in Keynesianism. By missing the forest for the tree a business’ monomania towards immediate profits in each fiscal quarter entrenches a suboptimal choice for creating wealth. By contrast a more holistic account acknowledges the knock-on effects that would be had on national income which is far more pregnant with consequence. Delaying gratification seeds a more lucrative outcome for industry and consumers alike. Development à la carte thereby differs from the trickle-down economics of the hedgehog where the destiny of a country is better shaped by more efficient entrepreneurialism and redistribution of wealth.
The state and markets should not be treated as mutually exclusive although hedgehogs would prefer to think they are. A strong casual link shows itself between the degree to which government participates in markets and the rate of development. America’s Transcontinental Railway typifies but one example in the saga of incubating industries when steel production proliferated. Although the history of major manufacturers has been somewhat whitewashed to leave the hagiography of free markets unblemished the reality is quite sobering. In their formative years the take-off of heavy industries with the largest footprint have all been succoured by the ally that is government as a way to operate at scale. The embrace of public policy preceded the ascent of key sectors which might have otherwise meandered or stagnated should they have been neglected in a vacuum. So the foray of foxes into the firmament of business ends up democratizing the space for private interests whose finances might have been wanting at first. Public investment therefore broadcasts market signals that motivate entrepreneurs to expend capital and energy in the earliest stages of risky ventures which may culminate into profitable industries later.

History of New York City | From Dutch Colony To a World Capital
youtube
Do you know why New York City is called the Big apple? Why Manhattan has so many skyscrapers? Did you know that Central Park used to be a village with farms and livestock?
Welcome to a brief history of the city that never sleeps, the big and mighty… New Amsterdam! Wait, I mean New York! Which used to be called New Amsterdam, in case you didn’t know. Oh well, let’s start from the beginning, shall we?
Let's go back to 1609 when a Dutch explorer named Henry Hudson sailed into New York Harbor and claimed the area for the Dutch East India Company. The Dutch established the colony of New Amsterdam on the southern tip of Manhattan Island in 1624, and it quickly became a hub of trade and commerce.
At the time, the area that is now known as New York City was inhabited by several Native American tribes. In fact, the word “Manhattan” comes from a dialect of the Lenape Native Americans and can be translated as “a thicket where wood can be found to make bows.”
To legitimize Dutch claims to New Amsterdam, Dutch governor Peter Minuit formally purchased Manhattan from the local tribe. He convinced the locals to give up the island in exchange for trinkets valued at only $24. However, this agreement didn't prevent multiple armed conflicts between the colonists and the Manhattans later in the future.
But the Native American tribes weren't the only force standing in the way of the Dutch colonists. The other competitors were far more powerful.
To get the full picture, let’s scale up a little. In the 17th century, the colonization of North America by European empires was at its peak. The main rivals here were the Dutch, French, and British empires, each trying to seize a bigger chunk of the land, resulting in local wars between the empires, as well as forced displacement of Native American tribes. This war between the major empires is going to play a big role in the future of New York City.
Now, back to Manhattan.
In 1664, the British Empire seized control of New Amsterdam and renamed it New York in honor of the Duke of York, who later became King James II.
In the meantime, the British Empire was slowly but steadily seizing more control over entire North America, forcing out not only the native inhabitants, but their rival empires too.
In the 18th century, the colonists of North America were growing unhappy with the British Empire, and when London imposed more and more taxes on the colonies, the American Revolutionary War broke out in 1775. The colonists fought against the British Empire for eight years to gain independence from the Crown. Other European empires, which weren’t happy with Britain being so powerful around the world, supported the colonists too, particularly the French Empire, the long-time rival of the British Empire. In fact, when the war was over, the United States received an interesting gift from the people of France, which later became one of the most famous symbols of New York City. Yes, I’m talking about The Statue of Liberty, which was erected in New York Harbor as a welcoming symbol to the 14 million immigrants who entered the United States through New York.
In 1783, the war ended, and the independence of the United States was recognized. George Washington triumphantly returned to New York and proclaimed it the capital city of the United States.
The city began to grow and develop, becoming a major hub for trade, commerce, and culture. In the 19th century, New York City became the main gateway for millions of European immigrants fleeing religious persecution, famine, and rising taxes in Europe, on the promise of freedom and economic prosperity in America. The city rapidly became the most populous area in all of North America, attracting immigrants from all over the world.
New York City became home not only to Europeans chasing the American Dream, but also to Black Americans.
Black Americans have been an important part of New York’s population since the colonial days when they were brought to America as enslaved people by the Dutch. Many more African Americans arrived in New York during the Great Migration of the 20th century. More than 175,000 African Americans landed in the Harlem area of Manhattan, including many artists and scholars, leading to the explosion of poetry, art, music, philosophy, and dance, known as the Harlem Renaissance.
New York City was growing into a major industrial and financial center.
On a nice day in May 17, 1792, 24 stockbrokers gathered under a buttonwood tree on Wall Street and signed an agreement defining the parameters of stock trading. This agreement grew into the almighty New York Stock Exchange, which later made New York City one of the financial centers of the world.
Manhattan was becoming too small for such a fast-growing city, and by the end of the 19th century, it had expanded further and now had the five boroughs we know today - Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island.
Fun fact - the Bronx borough is named after the first person who ever settled there: the Swedish Jonas Bronck. His farmlands were called "Bronck's Land”, and people eventually started calling it the Bronx, for short.
The city needed a way to connect Manhattan to Brooklyn over the East River, and in 1883, another symbol of New York City was born - The Brooklyn Bridge, the first steel suspension bridge in the world.
A city of this size couldn’t survive without a solid transport system, and in 1904, New York City's Subway was opened and soon became one of the most extensive in the world. Its routes add up to a distance of nearly 1,400 kilometers. Should you decide to travel on it all, it would take you over 24 hours.
Despite the expansion, there was still lack of space. After all, Manhattan is technically an island, so to make the most out the available space, developers started building upwards rather than outwards, that is the reason why Manhattan today has over 6000 high-rise buildings, almost 300 of them classified as skyscrapers, as they stand over 150 meters tall. The most famous of them is perhaps the Empire State Building, built in 1930s. For nearly 40 years it remained the world’s tallest building.
Let’s pause for a second. You might ask - didn’t every big city around the world have the same problem of accommodating a large number of people on a small patch of land? How come the other cities didn’t build tall buildings too? 
Well, humanity always loved the idea of building high towers, but there was always one tricky question with high-rise constructions - how do you safely move up and down the building?
The reason this became possible for New Yorkers is an invention that seemed insignificant at the beginning. In 1874, an engineer called Elisha Otis has introduced the first elevator with a safety break. This innovation is what made skyscrapers possible, and soon all the developers in New York City were obsessed with building taller and higher.
Manhattan quickly became a massive construction site. In 1850s, the city authorities decided to design a large municipal park to counter the unhealthful urban conditions and provide some space for recreation among this density of high-rise buildings. The municipality looked around Manhattan, and used the most unprotected area they could find. The area was called Seneca Village, a community of predominantly African Americans who owned property there. It was essentially a small village, an enclave in a rapidly growing urban area. The City acquired the land through eminent domain, the law that allows the government to take private land for public use with compensation paid to the landowner. This was a common practice in the 19th century, and had been used to build Manhattan’s grid of streets decades earlier. 
Roughly 1,600 inhabitants were displaced throughout the area. Although landowners were compensated, many argued that their land was severely undervalued. Ultimately, all residents had to leave by the end of 1857. Soon, this site became the country’s first major landscaped public park, known as Central Park. 
So, Central Park, skyscrapers of Manhattan, The Brooklyn Bridge, Statue of Liberty, five boroughs of NYC, revolution, colonisation, wars between empires - quite a a lot of events for a city that is hardly 400 years old, don’t you think? And that’s just a fraction of history of the New York City. But that is The Big Apple for you, things happen much faster here than anywhere else.

Bridgestone presents sustainable car tires made from recycled material
Tumblr media
Recycled plastic, steel and carbon black, vegetable oil and resin, more sustainable rubber… The new car tire from the Japanese Bridgestone[1] is full of sustainable innovations. It consists of 37 percent recycled material, 38 percent renewable material and will be prepared for the market this year.
Bridgestone has now produced two hundred copies of the sustainable car tire. And they have also been extensively tested. Cooperation is currently being sought with car manufacturers to apply the car tires to electric SUVs and CUVs.
Recycled and renewable material
The tire consists of various recycled materials, such as plastic, steel and carbon black (a powder that makes tires black and wear-resistant, among other things). The new rubber left in the tires is made from the desert plant guayule[2], which is grown on American soil. This also brings sustainable benefits. The natural rubber of guayule serves as an alternative to the rubber of the Brazilian rubber tree, which mainly grows in Southeast Asia. In other words: the import of rubber is declining. In addition, guayule needs fifty percent less water to grow.
Bridgestone also has follow-up ambitions. In 2050, the company wants to use only sustainable materials in its car tires. It is currently working on a tire for passenger cars that consists of 90 percent recycled and renewable materials.
Tumblr media
Recycle car tires
Car tires have a significant impact on the environment, especially after their service life. Every year, more than a billion car tires end up in landfill[3]  and the vast majority of them are incinerated. This is accompanied by a lot of CO2 emissions, because current car tires consist largely of fossil raw materials.
It is therefore not only important that car tires increasingly consist of recycled and renewable materials, but also that they are recycled more often. The Dutch Black Bear Carbon[4] has a solution for this and has since grown into an international player. The company (based on the Chemelot industrial cluster) is able to recover the carbon black from used car tyres, a powder that is normally produced in a polluting manner, by burning heavy petroleum fractions.

[1] Bridgestone Corporation (株式会社ブリヂストン, Kabushiki gaisha Burijisuton) is a Japanese multinational tire manufacturer founded in 1931 by Shojiro Ishibashi (1889–1976) in the city of Kurume, Fukuoka, Japan. The name Bridgestone comes from a calque translation and transposition of ishibashi (石橋), meaning 'stone bridge' in Japanese. As of 2021, Bridgestone is the largest manufacturer of tires in the world, followed by Michelin in France, Goodyear in the United States, MRF in India, Continental in Germany and Pirelli in Italy. Bridgestone Group has 181 production facilities in 24 countries as of July 2018.
[2] Parthenium argentatum, commonly known as the guayule, is a perennial woody shrub in the family Asteraceae that is native to the rangeland area of the Chihuahuan Desert; including the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. It was first documented by J.M. Bigelow in 1852 through the Mexican Boundary Survey and was first described by Asa Gray. Natural rubber, ethanol, non-toxic adhesives, and other specialty chemicals can be extracted from guayule. An alternative source of latex that is hypoallergenic, unlike the normal Hevea rubber, can also be extracted. While Castilla elastica was the most widely used rubber source of Mesoamericans in pre-Columbian times, guayule was also used, though less frequently. The name "guayule" derives from the Nahuatl word ulli/olli, "rubber".
