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, Jyunkan-Nohjyo (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.

This paper aims at describing an aspect of traffic accident problems from a sociological point of view by examining institutional procedures of accident investigations called &lsquo;jikky&ocirc;-kenbun&rsquo;. &ldquo;Interpretative frames&rdquo; for evaluating professional negligence resulting in injury or death used by the police greatly influence the process of production of &lsquo;jikky&ocirc;-kenbun&rsquo;. However, those records are presented as <i>objective</i> data, describing the factual elements of the accident. As a result, numerous actors that may have had a decisive role in the accident are made invisible, which allows the social system to attribute the responsibility of the accident only to the persons directly involved.

Historically eugenics was not always an instrument to promote racism, such as in Nazism. In the early twentieth-century Western societies population problem was one of the most important issues. In that context eugenics played a specific role in developing social intervention in individual life or reproduction. This essay tries to trace such a historical role of eugenics through the analysis of the ‘police’ of feeble-mindedness as an example.

This paper deals with the development of the modern mode of news reporting by newspapers in the early Meiji era. It has been said that modern news can be characterized by its “actuality”, which means that news should report “facts” themselves on the spot. Complete pursuit of “actuality”, however, would render the news itself impossible, because “facts themselves” cannot be defined in principle. How did new-born modern newspapers in the Meiji era break this bottleneck? To explore this question, I analyze several newspaper articles on two murders in this period that indicate different attitudes towards “facts”. In conclusion, I point out that an actual resolution of the impossibility of news at that time was to appropriate texts written by “others”, such as testimonies in the court, as “facts”.

Sociology was born with the emergence of modern society. Therefore, the study on modernity has been one of the most important tasks in sociology. In fact, sociology has made many things clear about “modern capitalism”, “modern family”, “modern nation state” and so on. This can be recognized as an honorable achievement of sociology.Can we say, however, that sociology has examined the modern character of face-to-face relationships? Face-to-face relations have existed in all societies throughout history, and are different from, for example, relations via electronic media. In this sense, face-to-face relations are universal. Does the universality, however, mean that its property has never changed?The aim of this paper is to examine the transformation of face-to-face relations and to point out the unique character of face-to-face relations in modern society.

In the context of sociology in Japan, where ethnic homogeneity has been assumed and vernacular culture has rapidly vanished since the end of WWII, it has been usual that the term “diversity” has carried a critical nuance. However, recently, in the age of late modernity, “diversity” has come to be embedded into the logic of global capitalism and the efforts of national and municipal governments that hope to attract fluid multinational companies and a cosmopolitan “creative class”. The author seeks to articulate the meaning of “diversity” in this context, and to point out that what kind of urban practices would be excluded in the recent urban redevelopments that have sought to create cities with diverse urban amenities. This paper examines the paradox that some restrictions on what can be done in the urban space are required to guarantee the diversity in that same urban space.

This paper is intend to survey the relation between sociology and communications and to present may own opinion about communication theory. First I'll describe some communication theories focussed on conveyance of meanings. Next I'll claim that sociology needs generative process of meanings. Finally I try to link "agents" with "structure" using the concepts of linguistic terms. It is important for sociologists to pay attention to communication theories because they become cover main fields of sociology more than before.

In psychotherapy of “gender identity disorder” in Japan, psychiatrists assess the “sex of mind” of their clienteles. In this process, medicine first treats the invisible “sex of mind” 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 “gender identity disorder” 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 “sex of mind”, this practice may be actually seeing very “sex of mind”.

It is frequently said that the intellectual climate has changed enormously. The alleged decline in the cultural knowledge of young people is often cited as the main reason for this. But, old patterns of cultural behavior cannot be continued as the intellectual practice of a modern society. We need a new standard of intellectual behavior appropriate to the “information age”. To respond to this issue, I examine the lack of intellectual behavior in Japanese modernization. Focusing on the history of libraries, I examine the changes in the links between intellectual concerns and the academic discipline.

Fingerprinting was the first technology capable of accurately identifying individuals. In the Japanese puppet state of Manchuria, fingerprinting was implemented on a large scale. Why was fingerprinting considered so necessary in Manchuria despite the huge effort required? In addressing this question, this paper focuses on the complicated mobilities of workers in Manchuria. The Manchurian government faced a situation of highly complicated mobilities and thus it needed a means of the control of mobilities. Further, the fingerprinting registration of workers gradually developed into a national registration system, so this paper examines the process of the implementation of fingerprinting registration and the formation of a national citizenry in Manchuria based on the control of mobilities.

Almost Seventy years have passed since the atomic bombing in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Lots of atomic bomb survivors have talked about their catastrophic experiences in public but there have also been many of survivors who have kept silent in public about the experience and about their lives afterwards. This article is based on interviews with thirteen survivors. Eight of them have never talked about their experiences in public. Listening closely to their concerns and thoughts, one reason became clear. They have hoped to live with atomic bomb victims. It appears that their silence is the expression of their resistance. Referring to Butler's giving an account of self, this might be able to be called the logic of resistance through silence. The logic of silent resistance is meaningful, because it provides a new perspective for atomic bomb survivors. Their words and attitudes of resistance can contribute to the development of a new theory for peace.

This paper analyses body consciousness on the part of swimming instructors regarding with respect to intellectual disabled persons. It focuses largely on two examples. In the first example, the intellectually disabled person has difficulty with utterance, and the second, fragmentary utterance is possible. Examination of these examples reveals that the body of the intellectually disabled person is the “place” that forms the social relationship with the swimming instructor. In conclusion, I point out the importance of considering the working of the micro-social order that results from the awareness of the instructors. Therefore, “the problem of the disabled” is the social reality that is constructed by the awareness of the able bodied person.

In sociology, many studies have pointed out that the combination of marriage with love had not been established until the modern era. The purpose of this paper focusing solely on Japan is to clarify the essence of the transformation of love that is conjectured from the fact that the Japanese word “ren-ai” means approximately the same thing as the English “love” or the French word amour. Furthermore, ren-ai has been prominent use in Japan since the Meiji period. Through an analysis of ‘love, ’ I want to provide and to show the grounds for an argument that understanding historical change in a specific mode of communication is one way to make clear endemic elements of “modernity. ”

This paper investigates how the arrangement of participants' bodies, talks and activities in particular time and space organize their interactions. The empirical research was done by using videotapes of dispatchers receiving emergency calls in a 119 dispatch center. While one dispatcher (call taker) replies to an emergency call, he and his colleague are able to silently interact with each other. This shows that their actions construct a type of back region and the call taker is embedded within two ‘participation frameworks’: one with the caller, and the other with his colleague.This analysis shows that these concepts, “region” and “participation framework”, proposed by Erving Goffman, apply to actual settings and that they are organized by the arrangement of the participants' bodies, talks and activities.

Today there are large number of studies concering the problems of familial caregivers. However, little attention has been given to the process by which the caregivers coping strategy changes in a difficult situation. In order to understand caregiver's experiences, this paper tries to focus on the changing process of caregivers “routinization strategy”. The routinization strategy is divided into two ways: one is “drawing a line between caregiving tasks and non caregiving works”, the other is “shortcutting in interaction with the care recipient”. After an examination based on interviews with familial caregivers, we found that the increasing needs of caregiving tasks would lead caregivers to the following two problematic outcomes: first, they cannot “draw lines, second, it is difficult for them to gain the meaning from continuing to do caregiving. We further found that these two outcomes would lead caregivers to an ever more troubled situation.

“Legitimacy” is one of the most often discussed concepts in Sociology. But the cognitive meaning of the concept is far from clear. This paper, first, points out “Selectivity from Complexity”, that is, contingency of affairs, as one of the logical requisites for taking “legitimacy” of a certain affair into question. The lack of cognition of this “contingency (selectivity) ” disables us from problematizing “Legitimacy”. Next, sociological descriptions are classified into two types: on the one hand, the contingency is introduced from the viewpoint of the observed (actors in the world as sociological objects), on the other, from that of the observer (sociologists themselves). Berger & Luckmann's literature, one example of latter type, is very “cosmological”. Bourdieu's belongs to the latter type also, but it utilizes “class”-category, one of the ‘powerful’ format for differentiating the actors, so it looks more plausible.
