How did the unemployment risk in the labor market change after the collapse of the bubble economy, while both globalization and the economic slump progressed? In this paper we answer this question by analyzing the determinants of unemployment risk. Unemployment is defined as an employee’s involuntary job-shift for reasons such as bankruptcy, business closure, and dismissal. This paper focuses on two topics: the effect of the expansion of non-standard jobs,and the change of determinants. First, we examine whether the rise of unemployment risk after the collapse of the bubble economy was influenced by the expansion of non-standard jobs. Second, we investigate the changes in the determinants of unemployment risk such as the position in the labor market, education, and occupation. Concretely, this paper verifies three hypotheses: universalization of risk, stratification of risk, and stability of the determinants. We analyze the determinants of unemployment risk by using the data of Social Stratification and Social Mobility (SSM) (2005). The results are the following. First, concerning the rise of unemployment risk after the collapse of the bubble economy, the direct effect of the period was strong, but the mediation effect of the expansion of non-standard jobs was weak. Second, though the unemployment risk increased after the collapse of the bubble economy, there was no change in the tendency that employees in small firms and in non-standard jobs are exposed to unemployment risk.

This study investigated the influence of the high school sector on educational achievement in Japan. A range of previous research on disparities in high schools showed that the rank of high schools (based on the scholastic achievement of pupils etc.) was born out of the democratization of high schools. However, considering that the democratization of high schools is maintained by a private high school, the high school sector may become a factor for high school ranking. The data used for analysis is the 2005 Social Stratification and Social Mobility Survey (SSM) in Japan. The results show students who go on to private high schools have lower scholastic achievement compared to students go on to public high schools. On the other hand, private high school students have higher educational achievement than public school students. Moreover, this study revealed private high school students have higher levels of social stratification than public high school students.Considering that the number of students taking the entrance examinations for private junior high schools has increased since the 1990s, private schools may have a greater effect on educational achievement not only in high schools but also in junior high schools in the future. Therefore, additional attention to the relationship between educational achievement and the private and public school sectors is necessary. E-mail: nwqpd863@yahoo.co.jp

In his social theory, Arthur W. Frank explained that the body is often consideredproblematic in terms of its “functionality” (or “system”). However, considering itproblematic in terms of “actions” is more in line with a phenomenological approach,rather than a functional approach. The concept of the “communicative body”, in particular, is applicable to the case ofmany sick people who wish to communicate with others face-to-face: both verbally andnon-verbally. I observed communication in a few self-help groups. However, Frank, whoonly argued that the telling of “quest stories” is an ethical practice of the “communicativebody”, did not clarify the ambivalence between various illness narratives and the body. I observed as a group individuals suffering from Parkinson’s disease who wished tobe rehabilitated, and prepared a short ethnography of their group. In the participants’communication, their language as well as their bodies constructed their illnessnarratives, which were characterized by hard-working protagonists or their handicappedbodies. However, the relationship between an illness narrative and the body is notsimple. On the one hand, their bodies sustain their illness narratives that give them hope;on the other, their condition deteriorates and they feel that they are “getting worse”. The “body” is a very important element in the study of illness narratives; it sustains orhinders the construction of the narratives. Therefore, the “communicative body” is notan “idealized” one. The concept is applicable while observing the relationship betweenvarious illness narratives and the body, and considering how the body develops and failsin its style of usage when it suffers from a debilitating illness.

The purpose of this paper is to suggest a viewpoint to understand "Hikikomori" without referring to dyscommunication between parents and children as a cause of "Hikikomori," based on narratives by members of a self-help group.In this paper, we regard "Hikikomori" as passing, and focus on information about self and interactions with others. The term "Hikikomori" does not always indicate withdrawal from communication with all others.For example, informants sometimes go out for shopping or walks, on the one hand; on the other hand, they avoid meeting almost all their neighbors, friends and acquaintances. We can consider both episodes deliberate or unintended passing, namely, in order to avoid negative reactions from others, they try to keep anonymity that means relative shortage of biographical information by managing their own discreditable information about themselves. In addition, informants can associate with their intimates if they are familiar with the discreditable information about informants and passing is not needed. However, even in this case, informants sometimes avoid associating with their intimates if the negative reactions from them can be expected. From this view, it is not very important with whom informants communicate. In conclusion, we suggest that informants avoid the situations where they recognize themselves as stigmatized individuals, which cause them moral conflicts, and that we can consider "Hikikomori", in a sense, a rational strategy to ease their own moral conflicts.

In this article, the subject of my analysis is “how does the category become relevant, initially, at different times, and in different ways, in the life of a person?” (See Lynch2001: 249 about “dementia”.) Sociological studies on early dementia (Deguchi 1999; Amada 2007; Iguchi 2007) focus on conflicts among family members. The early symptoms of dementia are always vague (e.g., forgetfulness, character change). Therefore, family members may differ in regarding whether certain “troubles”(Emerson & Messinger1977)can be termed dementia symptoms; this will lead to conflicts among the family members. While considering the abovementioned studies, I examine how Ms. J and Ms.I define their mother, Ms. K, as being demented, despite the inconsistency in their early decisions. I emphasize the following two points. First, considering the accountability of family members regarding the “deviances” in the elderly, a family member’s perception of “deviance” in the behavior of an elderly person does not necessarily imply that the elderly person is demented, because there are many possible interpretations of such behavior besides dementia; the behavior could result from non-dementia illnesses or factors such as family discord. So family members attribute the elderly person’s “deviance” to dementia and disregard other possible causes for such behavior, only when the context of social interaction suggests it. Second, considering the importance of acknowledging social settings, the mere “deviances” noticed in behavior cannot be categorized as the symptoms of clinical disorders such as dementia. As suggested above, family members’ decisions regarding the symptoms of dementia should always be based on an elderly person’s pattern of everyday life and the context of any specific interaction. Therefore, they must consider the social settings that form the context of social interaction.
