This paper aims to clarify the formation and characteristics of new Internet-related self-help activities for people who suffer from mental illnesses. First, these activities are not organized by existing self-help groups outside the Internet; and secondly, the relationship between the participants is very fluid. The participants use the Internet as a tool to contact each other without having recourse to any sort of intermediary services such as medical and welfare agencies. They themselves select people with whom to talk, and decide what to do at their own discretion. When starting such activities, it may happen that they do not trust each other at first, because their communication starts with anonymous Internet BBS on which verbal abuse and aspersions are posted frequently. But if they manage to hit it off with other people at offline meetings planned online anonymously, it becomes a precious experience for them in creating new intimate relationships that - among other things - might prevent the participants from committing suicide. They encourage each other, relieve their loneliness, and help each other to live with, and to manage, their illnesses. However,if these intimate relationships develop into a fixed relationship, then that may create a greater risk of trouble. In such cases, people tend to return to anonymous online communications as a sort of risk aversion. On the other hand, this also gives them another chance for precious experiences in finding a kindred spirit among other participants. Such activities create opportunities for socially vulnerable people to maintain their self-identity as a kind of reflexive project such as is imposed on all people in individualized societies, along with a chance for risk aversion among peer helpers. In this way, they use the Internet to enhance their discretionary power to continue self-help activities.

P.L.Berger's 'Social Reality of Religion' (1967), from the phenomenological point of view, gives us a new perspective in the sociology of religion, and urges us to reconsider its methodology. This essay first tries to diagram the theoretical frame with some modification, regarding his theoretical framework as a compromise of the two views; both phenomenological and dialectical. Then, I try to make mutual and critical examinations of the theory of Durkheim and that of Berger. The following are the points. Berger's fundamental concept, "reality", cannot develop itself out of the limit of the subjectivism. On the other hand, in Durkheim's "faits sociaux" we find an ambiguity or a dualism of ontological perspective and phenomenological one. Our subject will be to resystematize these two perspectives on the problems of the object and the method of the sociology of religion.

The idea of a "Vocabulary of Motives" was introduced into sociology by C. Wright Mills in 1940, and was rediscovered and reevaluated by the Everydaylife School of sociology during the latter part of the 1960's. Their subject, the 'imputation of motives' is contrasted with 'Verstehen des Motivs'. However, they have put emphasis on the similarity of their concept of the motive and that of M. Weber. In this position, we can see both consistencies and inconsistencies. W e are able to arrange these by dividing the statements of imputation of motives into two phases and using the following criteria. ① the relation of the sociologist, the observer who imputes motives, and the actor, ② where motives are imputed, and ③ how motives are decided. In the case of Verstehende Soziologie, ① a sociologist is the observer, ②Kulturwissenschaft demands Verstehen des Motivs of individual actors, and ③ motives must be logisch adäquat. In phase A where motives are successfully imputed, ① the observer isn't a sociologist. People in interactions observe each other, ② in micro 'motive-talk' situations, and ③ situationally adequate motives are imputed so that the order is reconstructed. On the other hand, in phase B where imputation of motives fails, ① the sociologist analyzes observers by means of sociology of knowledge, ② in macro conflicting situations, and ③ motives are situationally determinated, but social conflicts disturb the imputation of unquestioned motives. As Mills tried to adapt G. H. Mead's social-psychology to Mannheim's sociology of knowledge, he kept sight of both phases. But Everydaylife-sociology, which has an interest in a continuous reconstruction of the order of the everyday life, do not discuss phase B. Their statements, together with those of Weber, assume that adequate motives are imputed. But the man that Everydaylife-sociology supposes is different from that voluntary actor whom Weber described.

School uniforms are said to be special both in terms of their production and their consumption. Keeping this uniqueness in mind, this paper will take a brief look at how uniforms have been produced and consumed during the past thirty years, and then try to examine the meaning of the popularity of uniforms among students today. To this end, first I will explore the 'fashionization' of uniforms since the late 1970s. Here fashionization refers to the trend that suits and blazers replaced 'tsume-eri' and 'sailor' uniforms during that period. Although it has often been viewed just as a consequence of catering to the students' (especially female students') tastes, fashionization has also been the result of market restructuring and its subsequent articulation with pedagogical discourse such as 'school identity.'<br> This short history of the fashionization of uniforms, at a glance, explains why students like uniforms these days. My recent survey of high school students, in effect, shows that over 70% of the respondents think they need uniforms. If we ask them why, we find that students wear uniforms to allay anxieties concerning money and taste. In this sense school uniforms are one of the 'compensatory mechanisms' used to confront a consumer culture wherein one is constantly being asked 'who are you?' and 'what is your identity?'

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the process of, and condition for, the creation of cultural types in elite middle schools in Japan. We approached the problem by constructing an artificial "space" of elite middle schools from many samples collected by the questionnaires given to Kyoto University freshman in 2000, and then analyzed the data mainly by three types of school: public, private-inside-promotion ( I ) and private-halfway-admission ( U ). What has been demonstrated in this analysis is that the cultural gap between private schools is greater than that between public and private. By comparison with students in private group II , private type I students have parents that are better educated and take more active interest in cultural activities such as reading and hobbies. As success-minded newcomers, students of private type II devote themselves to preparing for the entrance examination. On the other hand, the members of public group are more social-minded and have more attachment to their own school than those of the private school groups. Based on these results, we can define a new conceptualization of three types of culture : "superior" (yutosei), "versatile" (shumijin) and "grinder" (jukensei). This provides us with a valid framework for both static-structural and historical-dynamic analyses, as follows. In the Showa 40's (1965-74) of popularized competition, high-ranking schools were spotlighted and added to prestige. They maintained a comparatively culturalminded tendency that had already been declining in college. During this period, we can find two historical prototypes for cultural typology. The envelopment-model is the form of the old era, where virtually all members were of the idealized versatile type.Differentiation-model is the first form of the new era, where all the versatile differentiated themselves from the emergent realistic grinder. But they share certain similarities in the tacit pressure of ignoring any competition for entrance examination. This envelopment / differentiation mechanism is likely to operate at the present six year private schools. It is the reason why there are many versatile students but they have ambivalent attitudes toward their own school.

There were at most 800 Japanese residents living in South Africa during the era of apartheid. They were predominantly expatriate employees sent from Japan who were permitted to reside in white residential areas. The existence of this resident population group who would normally have been classified as "non-white" in terms of South Africa's race categories under apartheid led to the Japanese being described as 'honorary whites'. In this paper, the 'honorary white' status will be discussed, with a focus on what is called the 'looping effect' (Hacking), or interactions between a concept that classifies people and those who are classified. For this study, 15 Japanese people who had resided in South Africa under apartheid were interviewed, and documentary materials were also collected both in Japan and in South Africa. These data were used, first, to create a general history of the status of the Japanese in South Africa from the beginning of the 20th century. The study follows the genesis of the title 'honorary white' in the early 1960s, and considers the influence of the concept on the Japanese and Chinese communities at that time. Finally it describes the way in which the title 'honorary white' affected the identities and actions of the Japanese residents in South Africa, and at the same time how their actions in turn constructed the image of 'honorary whites'.

According to psychoanalytic explanation, neurotic symptom is the representation of experiences or wishes repressed in childhood, and analytic treatment is to analyse patient's thoughts and actions that are assumed to derive from the same cause as symptom, and to cure neurosis by making patient recognize "true cause". But, there seems discrepancy between analytic expalanation and what analyst really does. When symptom is described in terms of social context, it has paradoxical forms of communication, and shapes a vicious circle with other which reproduces symptom. The reason why psychoanlytic treatment is effective on curing symptom is that analyst imposes paradox on patient without deliberate intention. This therapeutic paradox forces patient to change his paradoxical way of communication, which solves the vicious circle that has reproduced symptom. Because psychoanalysis takes natural science as its own reference group, analyst assumes his observation = treatment act is objective, and that he can obtain informations about patient unilaterally. But as the medium in analytic situation is personal medium, the informations analyst doesn't intend to send are conveyed to patient, which produces paradox. Though his intention isn't realized, analyst's reality is sustained by the psychoanalytic knowledge with the property of self-fulfilling prophecy, and improvement of neurosis by paradox. And besides, when social reality is constructed on analytic perspective intersubjectively, part of experiences patient got in therapeutic situation are excluded or screened from that reality. Ironically, treatment intends to enlarge patient's consciousness by recalling past experience, as a result excludes present experience.

Of the 297 inmates studied, abut one fourth have engaged in prostitution. The aim of this paper is to illustrate and analyze the careers of these inmates. By a "career" we mean one of many components of a person's life history, such as school career, occupational career, and marriage career. Acts of prostitution are treated as a part of the process of a deviant career, "career of prostitution"<br> First the career of the inmates who have engaged in prostitution are compared with the careers of those who have not, in order to illustrate the characteristics of the careers of the former. Some of the findings from the comparison are as follows: The inmates who have engaged in prostitution tend to have less education, are more likely to have run away fromhome and to have repeated marriage (namely common-law marriage ) more often. Also, there are more "mentally retarded" among the inmates who have committed prostitution. It is likely that inferior job opportunities due to lower educational achievement, "mental retardation" and running away are some of the "causes" of prostitution.<br> In the latter part of the paper, we observe the sequential process of "career of prostitution" in detail. The initial act of prostitution was usually committed when the inmates lived apart from their "conventional significant others". Also, interestingly, a number of the inmates' "careers of prostitution" show intermittence. By employing the age at which the initial act was commited and two other features as criteria, a typology of the inmates' "career of prostitution" is developed. It contains four types --- "the early-quitter" "the intermittently down fallen" "the exploited" and "the destitute" We hope this typology, along with other findings in this paper, will facilitate further reseaches on prostitution and the careers of women who have committed prostitution.

The aim of this paper is to explore the psychoanalytic idea of the narrativeconstruction of the self. The concept of self as narrative suggests that the self is aproduct of narrative which individuals construct for themselves. This view takesits inspiration partly form the sociology of the self, whose focus is on how the selfdevelops through the process of social interaction. Narrative-self theory insiststhat one’s own self narrative is always entangled in the narratives of others. Anarrative is characterized through the temporal and causal organization of events.The self-narration can configure the diverse events of one’s life into a meaningfulwhole. Freud also formulated the narrative construction of self in his peculiarterminology, such as “neuron /quantity”, “primary /secondary process” and“lateral cathexis”. And he compared the creation of a self-narrative to the workof “translation”. While, in this respect, psychoanalysis bears significant affinityto narrative theory of the self, there is a significant difference between the two.According to Freud, the “failure of translation”, that is, the partial breakdown ofthe self-story, opens up a new psychic space, what is called the “unconscious” inpsychoanalysis. That is to say, memory traces that cannot be integrated into thecoherent self-narrative constitutes our unconscious, which in turn supports, thesocial self.

Increases in child abuse are widely known. In this paper, I look at sexual abuse andhow it develops and is sustained in society. In considering this matter, I have focusedon the narratives of women in a self-help group who were the victims of sexual abuse.I have also derived data from previous research regarding why abuse victims are heldpersonally responsible, and why this is portrayed as the composition of child abuseproblems. In this paper, my aim is to reveal how these aspects are connected with thenarratives of sexual abuse victims. Instances of child sexual abuse are generally thought to be limited in number whencompared with other types of child abuse. In a report prepared by a children's guidanceclinic in 2004, sexual abuse cases represented only 3-5% of the total. Yet reports in thefield of clinical psychiatry state that sexual abuse in childhood is the cause of 15% ofadult mental instabilities. From this data, we can assume that victims suffer from mentalinstabilities which can be recognized by both the victim and her doctor. We can alsoconclude that it is very difficult for children to seek help. Sexual abuse problems have been perceived as the problems of the assailants.But when we interpret sexual abuse as a social problem from the viewpoint ofsocial-constructivism, victims are concerned about the problems and can be seen as"actors." When we think about reasons for sexual abuse as a social problem, we have tothink about the meaning for these "actors" as well. When the victims detect the problemsand the situation and begin to talk with other people about their experience, theybecome active "actors." When I focused on the victims' narratives, some representativenarratives came to light which I defined as the dominant stories of the self-help group.Then I found that the victims of sexual abuse have a passive existence in the compositionof sexual abuse as a serious social problem. As a result, this paper concludes that nocure can be found for these victims.
