As to the problem of "modernization and teachers in Japan," the three questions arise: the concept of modernization, the uniqueness of modernization in Japan. and the interrelationship between modernization and teachers. This article is an attempt to answer these questions, focusing attention on how "teacher class" is affiliated in the transition of Japanese society. Teachers were affiliated to the upper class in the hierarchical structure of village community which was an elementary component of Japanese society, and thus they had the dual attribute of farmer and teacher. It is pointed out in this article that this dual attribute of "teacher class" is a key to solve our problem of "modernization and teachers in Japan."
