The idea of "social distance" is often used as a concept for the empirical research of social relations in American sociology. Georg Simmel, a German sociologist, adopted the idea of "distance" to describe one aspect of social interaction, that is, the discrepancy between spatial and "social" distance. Robert E. Park noticed its analytical importance and suggested the application of the idea to "the Race Relations Survey in Pacific Coast" (1923-). Emory S. Bogardus modified it far more, and invented "social distance scale" to measure the intimacy in racial relations, especially American citizens and Oriental immigrants. For Park and Bogardus, "social distance" had an important role in their research method because it compensated for the deficiencies in their main method, "life history". But they omitted some implications suggested in Simmel's motif. On the one hand, Park and Bogardus did not acknowledge the analytical importance of "spatial distance" in social relations. They paid much attention to the spatial "nearness", but could not find the meaning of spatial "remoteness" in social interaction. On the other, they treated the attitude of maintaining "social distance" too negatively. As Simmel and Goffman mentioned, the maintenance of "social distance", like etiquettes, is often indispensable in urban life. Park and his colleagues discovered the great efficiencies of "social distance" as a research method. However, they lost a chance to consider these aspects of social interaction because of their bias to "social distance".

日本の大都市では2000年を画期として、長らく続いた人口の郊外化がおわり、人口が都心部に向かう都心回帰といわれる状況がみられる。その原因は、不況により都心地域の地価が下がり、オフィス需要が減少し、そこに大型のマンションが建てられ、新しい住民の居住が促進されたためである。本研究では、大阪市の都心区における新しい住民と古くから住んでいた住民との関係について、大阪市特有の地域住民組織である「地域振興会」(振興町会や連合振興町会)に焦点をあて、共同調査を行った。結果として、新住民のそれへの参加は少なく、旧住民中心に運営されてきた振興町会の側も新住民への対応に苦慮していること、新旧住民間の交流やコミュニティの形成が課題となっていることが判明した。

日本の大都市では2000年を画期として都心回帰がみられる。その原因は、不況によりオフィス需要が減少し、大型マンションが建てられ、新住民の居住が促進されたためである。大阪市特有の地域住民組織「地域振興会」へのインタビューを通して、大阪市における新住民と旧住民との関係について調査した。その結果から、新住民のそれへの参加は少なく、旧住民中心の振興町会側も対応に苦慮し、新旧住民間の交流やコミュニティの形成が課題となっていることが判明した。
