Inoue (1998) pointed out differences in the reading experiences of manga between men and women. In this paper, I develop Inoue's findings by analyzing two surveys. Firstly, I present data from a "school library survey," and report the following. For instance, as boys and girls grow older, boys stop reading the monthly comic magazines, such as "Corocoro-comic," that they read in elementary school, and start reading weekly comics, such as "Shonen Jump," in junior high school. In contrast, girls change from reading the monthly girls' comic magazines, such as "Ribon," that they read in elementary school, and start reading monthly fashion magazines, such as "Seventeen," in junior high school. Secondly, a questionnaire survey on youth culture and communication was conducted in 2010 that targeted young people in Nerima-ku in Tokyo. The aim of the survey was to identify youth opinions and behavior in relation to hobbies and culture. Some of the findings in the analysis concern comics. In terms of the media, although men and women mainly read comics as collected volumes, men tend to read magazines while women do not. In terms of reading volume, men read an average of 4.8 collected volumes and 2.8 magazines per month, while women read an average of 4 collected volumes and 0.7 magazines. Additionally, it was found that there is a positive correlation between how frequently women read comics as collected volumes or magazines, and how frequently they discuss comics, go to manga stores with friends, and make friends through such discussions about comics. This correlation was not seen in the men. The survey results suggest that the culture of reading comics may be dominated by men, while for women, it is more of a subculture. It is rare for women to read comics; therefore, reading comics becomes a resource for communication.

This paper analyzes how the meaning associated with the word “shikohin” evolved and was extended in the Meiji era. “Shikohin” was originally introduced as a word for knowledge of German hygiene in a textbook translated by Goto Shinpei, who worked for the Board of Health. Soon after, in a fast-changing environment of consumption, “shikohin” was used in the public relations magazine ‘Shiko’, where it connoted not only a knowledge of hygiene but also knowledge relevant to taste.

Since the outbreak of the Korean War, Sasebo City has received favors because it hosts a U.S. army and navy base. During the war, the number of cyclos that carried officers and soldiers to recreational facilities with prostitutes in Sasebo's red-light district increased. The local government passed ordinances that enabled it to clamp down on these cyclos and “liquidate” them. With these changes in the law and the government's enforcement of the ordinances, the cyclos changed their routes and the urban experience.

In this paper, we examine the role of literary taste among youth in Japan.Pierre Bourdieu's theory of taste assumes that individuals are ranked accordingto their taste from the most refined to the most vulgar. Reading novels appearsto be a perfect example of Bourdieu's theory, as reading is taught directly inschool. However, Bourdieu's theory seems to be at odds with the Japanese situation,where influential literary critics have witnessed the 'downfall' of onceesteemedliterature that, as they saw it, has now ceased to be relevant to societyand become merely entertainment. Even when the popularity of" light novels" and" cell phone novels" causedcontroversy in the 2000s regarding their quality due to the former's anime/manga-like characters and the latter's unconventional style of writing andexcessively sentimental plots, scholars and journalists countered the disparagingdiscourse on these supposedly "lowbrow" novels. Although Bourdieuassumes individuals to be taste-sensitive and taste to be a fundamental capitalin every field of cultural practice, for the case of novel reading in Japan, thisvery assumption must be called into question. Drawing from the 2010 Youth Culture and Communication Survey in Nerima(Tokyo), we explore whether literary taste is still relevant to the sense of distinctionamong young novel readers. We examine the difference between selfcategorizednovel hobbyists and non-hobbyist novel readers, and we testwhether what they read accounts for the gap between the two groups. The findings show that the types of novels are relevant to their self-categorization.In particular, those who read classical novels are more likely to regardreading novels as a hobby and those who read cell-phone novels are less likely.Against literary critics' skepticism about the cultural authority of literature inJapan, these findings indicate that even urban youth conform to the conventionalhierarchy of literary taste.

This paper examines activities related to reading mobile phone novels (Keitai Shosetsu), which became a social phenomenon in the 2000s. Previous literature on readers or the audience of such texts has not focused on the specific local activities related to text, because existing models and theories of audience do not adequately help researchers conduct a comprehensive study of such topics. In addition, studies on mobile phone novels have overlooked the various related activities accompanying reading and instead focused exclusively on the originality of media usage and the novelty of the stories' plots. In contrast, my research approach focused on examining local activities - how students en-gage in reading, how they discuss the novels - through fieldwork, including participant observation and group interviews of middle school students. I found that most girls spent their recess time reading and talking about mobile phone novels not by means of mobile phones but instead by means of physical books, while boys attempted to become friends with the girls under the pretext of asking them about their favorite novels. These activities were analyzed using Sacks' notion of Membership Categorization Device (MCD) in Ethnomethodology and Conversation Analysis. My results revealed firstly that reading mobile phone novels presupposed the use of the category "girl." Further, while girls enjoyed reading these mobile phone novels as love stories, boys considered the content of the novels to be indecent, which, according to the girls, is because most boys read only the obscene sections of the novels. This difference in perspectives regarding reading mobile phone novels is the result of using MCD. Furthermore, students' behaviors were not driven by their culture, but accomplished by membership categorization. Therefore, as an exception a boy read content liked by girls. The above observations suggest that students are not readers or the audience of texts as a model, but instead behave according to the uses of membership categories.

In the classroom, although students often laugh with friends, teachers cansometimes censure them for certain activities where laughter is unacceptablebehavior. This paper describes the structure of this type of hilarity, consideringinstances where teachers can disapprove, according to ethnomethodology andconversation analysis By analyzing two types of interaction, the author attempts to shed light onthe following main points. First, in terms of laughter produced during a groupinterview, two types of laughter exist. On the one hand, some jokes elicit laughterfrom every participant. On the other hand, some jokes are not funny for allparticipants. Some activities considered to be joking produce the latter kind oflaughter, and can be penalized by the teacher. This form of mockery differs incertain aspects from that examined in a preceding study by Drew. Second, ittends to be produced in a particular sequence organization. Three steps have beenobserved in such a sequence. First, a preceding actor acts in a certain manner so asto poke fun at a subsequent actor. Some actions tend to be utterances organized asfirst-pair part with some amusing components, or to be utterances with humorouscomponents dependent on a preceding utterance. Second, when the subsequentactor responds to the preceding action, the embedded comical component isimputed to him. Third, participants can laugh at the subsequent actor because ofthis imputation. In addition, if the subsequent actor does not respond to the preceding action,the preceding actor could repeat this action, that is, to tease, to laugh at him, or toimpose sanctions against the rejection of the preceding action. As a consequence of these structures, the subsequent actor is given a paradoxicalidentity different from those sharing co-membership.

本研究は「アクティブ・ラーニング」の導入の影響を考えるために、学習活動の実際やそれが可能になる社会環境的条件、教師に求められる実践力の検討を行うことを目的としている。昨年度は、コロナウイルス感染対策のための学内業務(遠隔講義作成・各種事務対応)の増大や、学校現場における調査ができない状況が続いたため、今年度は現場の教員経験を持つ者を分担者に加えることによって体制の見直しを図った。その結果、新規分担者のアドバイスを得ながら、既存データの事例の検討、分析を進めることができた。その成果はすでに出版社に原稿として提出しており、次年度に出版される予定である。また、新規分担者の参加によって、現場の実践についてより理解が深まり、コロナ禍下での実践上の工夫について知見を得ることができた。具体的には、2021年6月12日(土)日本子ども社会学会(オンライン)においてラウンドテーブルⅡ「子どもの遊びと学びをコロナ禍の下で考える-相互行為とメディアの観点から-」を複数の分担者で企画した。そこでは、学校全体での感染防止対策によって導入された、行動に関わる制限的な規範の変化(黙食、児童同士が直接的な身体接触を避ける)などを、むしろ、新しい実践を導入していくきっかけとして捉えていく子どもたちの様子や、そうした試みを支援していく教師の実践があることが報告された。また、コロナ禍下の学校では、対面でありながら、直接的な身体接触を避けるという規範があるため、身体やコミュニケーションを媒介する、様々なメディア(音楽、相手に渡せる道具や物など)を活用し、そのメディアの性質を積極的に取り入れることで、新しい遊びや流行を創り出す様子がうかがえた。こうした研究は授業実践自体を対象としたものではないが、同様の児童と教師のあり方が授業実践でもみられた可能性があることが示唆された。

This study aims to analyze interaction in the form of readers’ comments and writers’ responses in online comment columns from an ethnomethodological standpoint. The study focuses on Mushoku Tensei, the most-accessed web fiction on the most popular and relevant site, Shōsetsuka ni Narō. The findings of the analysis indicate that: 1) in terms of the design of the reader’s comment, the reader posted some comments with a downgrade to save their face; and 2) in terms of the content of the reader’s comment, the reader noted problems in some character’s line by referencing the rule of “onnna kotoba/otoko kotoba” in fiction writing.
