Historical research on labor and gender in Japan is still insufficient. This paper analyzes the notion of gender held by Muto Sanji, who was a prominent business manager in Japan's cotton-spinning industry before WW2. Because the expectations demanded of labor show up in managers' congratulatory messages, we use Muto's congratulatory messages for data. As a result of our analysis, Muto's notion of gender includes (1) a justification of employment using a market-oriented logic, (2) essentialism regarding gender roles in labor, and (3) the justification of a gender division of labor via a genderized family concept. These findings have been overlooked in previous research.

This paper aims to delve into the process of the “Zainichization” of “Zainichi Koreans” in the 1980s through the problem of employment as a “Zainichi Korean.” The reason why I focus on the issue of employment is that it is an important factor for the second generation of “Zainichi Koreans” to live in Japan as a permanent resident. It is also an indicator of integration into Japanese society. To analyze the employment problem, I used interview data and articles from famous “Zainichi Koreans” magazines such as the “Sanzenri” and “Uri-seikatsu” which were published in 1980s. I scrutinized this data into the two aspects of “personal effort” and “generation gap.” The most definite finding of this study is that attempting to get a job was not only an “individual practice” for “Zainichi Koreans” but also a “structural practice” which helped to build a bridge between Japanese society and “Zainichi Koreans.”

<p>The aim of this paper is to examine how moral education in Japan is or is not possible by using Niklas Luhmann's systems theory. In this paper, I show that it is more appropriate to consider moral education as educational communication under the control of a binary code of "good/not good", rather than moral communication based on "respect/disrespect". Students who receive education about morality will be busy concerning themselves with their teacher's evaluation. Moral education is almost impossible as a method of changing a student into a moral person because moral education itself is a paradox. However, moral education is possible as a program in an education system through a process called de-paradoxication.</p>

In the present essay, J&uuml;rgen Habermas's early sociological works will be examined in two respects: on the one hand, their stratified relationships to the conceptual constructions of Carl Schmitt and R&uuml;diger Altmann; on the other, his understanding of historical development in eighteenth-century England. The analysis through these two subjects maintains that the core of his conceptualization of the civil/bourgeois public sphere consists in the articulation between institutionalized political powers (not only government, but also parliament) and private citizens who generally criticize political affairs. In addition, the essay will also argue that his diagnosis of modern society depends especially on his critical attitude of intermediary organizations which attempt to affect political processes without public control in the re-politicized social sphere that emerged after the disappearance of the liberal distinction between the public and private realm.

This paper aims to analyze to effects of emotional labour on self-identity in the caring process. In this process, nurses are expected to identify and meet patients' emotional needs. To do so, nurses must manage patients' emotions and establish rapport with patients by paying attention to their own emotions and patients' emotional expressions. Nurses are willing to make rapport with their patients and it is their duty to do so; however, excessive rapport may become an obstacle in their efforts to care for their patients. This paper focuses on how nurses suffer from feelings of ambivalence as double standards of warm feelings and strict rules are imposed on them in the caring process.

The purpose of this analysis is to examine determinants of husbands' participation in domestic work and child-care in Japan. Using a multivariate analysis of data from the 1999 National Family Research in Japan, this study explored the factors that affect husbands' participation in these activities. Findings indicated that the need for household labor, couples' time availability, income disparity between spouses, gender role ideology, and husbands' level of education were significant determinants of their household behavior. The factors determining child-care behavior were different from those of household labor: the need for child-care, time availability, and level of education were consistent determinants, but income disparity between spouses and gender role ideology were not found to be significant.

Some authors claim that the traditional study of interaction between nature and human society--from an anthropocentric perspective--ignores natural or ecological limits. Therefore, they assert that we must convert our perspective from anthropocentrism to anti-anthropocentrism. However, a historical-cultural perspective shows us that there is no objective nature such as the anti-anthropocentric perspective proposes to represent, which is primarily based on dualism. In this respect, we should understand that nature is a historical construction of a community for the very simple reason that to deny human acts or society means to deny and to exclude the human from nature. In this paper, I will discuss these two perspectives and reveal the utility of adopting an historical-cultural perspective.

Japanese Morse code telegraphers have been given a position of honor and a specific place in the culture of the workplace, dating back to the Meiji Period. However, they rapidly lost their power and influence after the Second World War when the Teleprinter —a fully automated telegraph— began to replace Morse code and spread throughout the country. The historical question then arises: Why were Japanese Morse code telegraphers so influential and perceived as so honorable? The objective of this paper is to approach the organizational culture of the Telegrapher, to examine the role which this culture played in the formation of their gendered identities and the way in which this culture changed.

I produced the digital archive of 10,000 titles of early Japanese television commercials. Some of these commercials contain the elements related to the program. For instance, the cast in the program appears in the commercial, the same setting as the program is used in the commercial, or the commercial is integrated into the opening or the ending of the program. When we extract these commercials from their broadcast context and arrange them in a taxonomic space, the constructed meaning that a viewer at that time would have been experienced is lost. The loss of context can be restored to some degree by supplying textual information but it is almost impossible to do this perfectly. This case suggests that the commercials as they appeared in the flow of broadcasting and the commercials stocked in database cannot be the same semantically. A digital archive is not a transparent box. It alters the meaning of the stored material. We should advance the analysis of such power of the media.

This paper, as part of study that aims at understanding the characteristics of the modern homes, discusses about urban housing surveys in Japan in the 1910-40s, using a method of historical sociology. Housing surveys can be read as discourses on homes. This paper stresses the fact that those surveys described not only the properties of houses but also the relationship between homes and inhabitants. Those surveyors' perspectives were linked to contemporary discourses on homes. The numerous attempts at housing surveys suggest that the process of formation of modern homes was based on ideas and technologies refined at every moment.

In this study, we discuss the nature of the relationship between the intimate sphere of the modern youth of Japan and the communication taking place within this world. Modern youth communicate daily on the basis of joint relationships that are formed while maintaining a collective balance with others. This figurative method of communication is known symbolically as the [Nori] concept. The communication of [Nori] takes place by tuning into one's surroundings, and by cooperating with the group in order to reduce complexity. From this point, depending on the members of the group and the situation, a carnival (upsurge) is created. Through this type of communication, modern youth are able to recursively confirm that they have a place in their group.

In Japan, the tax support system for nonprofit organizations was legislated in 2001, then significantly revised in 2011. Behind these events was constant lobbying by a social movement organization called C's. This paper examines how C's used two types of lobbying tactics: outside and inside. As outside tactics, the organization carried out “conflict expansion” by appealing to mass media and collecting signatures, and “signaling” by holding campaigns with Diet members. As inside tactics, it presented petitions to the government and attended political party hearings. These tactics were scheduled over one year and were repeated 12 years. Although the frequency of the outside tactics decreased, the organization constantly employed its inside tactics. After the change in government, C's changed the political situation and achieved its goal.

In Britain in the first half of the 2010s, support for the UK Independence Party (UKIP), an anti-EU immigration party, dramatically increased. Although a number of studies have been done to explain the party’s rise, less attention has been paid to the development of anti-EU immigration discourse among the British public. This article explains the shift from an inclusive discourse in the 2000s to an exclusive one in the 2010s by focusing on the welfare rights of EU immigrants and the compatibility of these rights with the contemporary workfare-oriented welfare state.

This paper examines the vocabulary of “legitimation” in the funeral business. I examine two movements that have occurred in post-war Japan. Both movements were related to funeral simplification. In the course of opposing funeral simplification, the funeral business experienced difficulty in asserting its legitimacy vis a vis the actors in each movement. In this paper, I indicate the relationship between the vocabulary used to explain the legitimacy of the funeral business to the actors in each movement and its effect in achieving social recognition.

In psychotherapy of &ldquo;gender identity disorder&rdquo; in Japan, psychiatrists assess the &ldquo;sex of mind&rdquo; of their clienteles. In this process, medicine first treats the invisible &ldquo;sex of mind&rdquo; as more essential than the visible sexed body, then as visible in the clientele's looking, behaviors, talks etc. The aim of this article is to examine how medicine treats the sex category according to this paradoxical logic, using the review of medical discourses and scripts based on interviews of &ldquo;gender identity disorder&rdquo; clientele. Through this process of description of the medical practice, it is showing how, by seeing the clientele's display as trans-situational clues of the &ldquo;sex of mind&rdquo;, this practice may be actually seeing very &ldquo;sex of mind&rdquo;.

Organic agriculture is farming without reliance on pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Therefore, it inherently requires the handwork of farmers and has therefore been considered as time-consuming and labor intensive. We must, however, remember that farmers are not unwilling to engage in organic farming. Organic agriculture occasionally fascinates them. This paper focuses on an organic farm in the Narita-Sanrizuka area, <i>Jyunkan-Nohjyo</i> (The Recycle-Based Farm) established by Hidemasa Koizumi and his wife, local farmers. By analyzing his documents and his narrative about the farm it becomes clear that organic agriculture is a movement by the farmer to restore his power to observe nature and to regain the pleasure that comes from making direct, positive contact with nature.

Why does a person get contact with mass media? Why does he take part in “mass communication process”? In this paper, I answer this primitive question by referring to the apparatus with which an audience can make “subject” of himself. “Mass communication process” always includes this apparatus, which can involve so many people in this process so deeply. I examine this hypothesis in two ways. First, I analyse some media frames of the news on foreigners in Japan in 1980's. Second, I compare “mass communication process” with some cases of direct interpersonal process and try to extract the essence of “mass communication process” itself.

This article critically enquires into prevailing discourses on the rise of nationalism among the youth in Japan and proposes a sociological approach to an understanding of the situation involving them. Given the lack of sociological studies on this subject, empirical research is essential in order to understand the situation regarding youth and nationalism in present-day Japan. I have had valuable experiences of reflecting on the issue with students in university courses, who themselves conducted social research on the subject. The article reports two of such efforts. One is an attempt to look into the nature of problems of mass media in the creation and dissemination of discourses on the rise of nationalism. The other identified social processes that could generate nationalism such as those involved in the invention of the seemingly patriotic cheering style among soccer supporters. The article concludes with theoretical considerations, in which market-generated nationalism is contrasted with state-initiated nationalism.

The purpose of this paper is to discuss how a couple that got married after a pregnancy gives meaning to their marriage and interprets it. After analyzing their discourese, I realized that the relation between the pregnancy(and the raising of child) and the marriage is never explicitly mentioned. This is a strategy that allows the couple to talk about their marriage without rhetoric hides the contradictions inherent to their marriage and enables them to give it the same meanings as a &lsquo;love-marriage&rsquo;. Then it becomes acceptable.

This paper tries to demonstrate that relativism, scepticism, and anti-realism that the Sociology of (Scientific) Knowledge inevitably assumes are logically difficult and not useful for empirical investigations. First, by way of Reductio ad absurdum, the Reflexive Programme is examined. Next, a relativist-sceptist orientation is grasped in the empirical studies of Sociology of Scientific Knowledge. This orientation is criticized from the standpoint of ethnomethodological studies of scientific work. A Praxiology of knowledge is proposed.
