  • Not Refereed, Sociological Studies, Nara Women's University, Issues and Prospects for the Elderly Welfare System in China:\nA Case Study of Two Private Non-enterprises in Hunan Province, Xinhua Yao; Gentaro Mizugaki, This paper aims to examine the issues and prospects of welfare facilities for the elderly by private non-enterprises that are rapidly spreading in China on the data of two welfare facilities for elderly people in inland areas of China. Under the influence of government policy change in 2005, welfare facilities for the elderly tend to utilize the financial resources in the mixed form of private capital or community capital and government subsidies. As a result, the relationship between the social class and the management entity, and the social disparity between facilities has come to be seen in urban areas. The public facilities correspond to the lower class and the private facilities correspond to the higher class. In rural areas, successful facilities are based on mixed management that utilizes users' personal assets, government subsidies and community resources. Although in the past, the elderly welfare facilities were limited to people requiring long-term care and nursing, recently they tend to accept independent aged people. In the background the current family-based welfare system has reached its limit. The concern has been increasing for the problem of a solitary couple or a couple elderly whose children flew out into the urban areas, and the one of children-only households whose parents go out for work into urban areas. On the other hand, the rural elderly welfare facilities are attempting to rebuild the support network for elderly people in the rural areas. Effective utilization of local community resources is the key to sustainable welfare system for elderly people in rural areas.

Social support is measured by the four items that are related to mental and instrumental support for childrearing and to mental and instrumental support for general matters. The set of three-layer "regional types", which are New Residential District (NRD), Old City Center (OCC) and Rural Area (RA), is constructed to compare women’s social support network., Mar. 2015, 22, 22, 1, 21, Research institution, False

  • Not Refereed, The Development of Power Sources and Nationalism in the Postwar Japan, Shigeru Tanaka; Gentaro Mizugaki, This article tries to explicate changes of anti-dam movements in between the prewar and postwar Japan from the standpoint of 'nationalization' and nationalism. Japan has poor natural resources, so its economic development had fairly depended on hydroelectric power in the prewar period. As a dam has to be built at the cost of mountain village communities, its building usually brings about strong opposition movement as a matter of course. Especially in the prewar period, dam-building plans were sometimes forced to be stopped because of the importance of rivers for the village people. In the postwar period, as the scale of dams became larger, their negative impacts on village communities became deeper. However, there have been built as many as 2700 dams in Japan in spite of strong anti-dam movements. In this article we discuss the importance of the standpoint of 'nationalization' and nationalism to explain the above changes. Nationalization refers to processes in which circulation of commodities, capitals and so on become nationwide with the development of regional (domestic) division of labour. We review the history of forestry in mountain villages and demonstrate that the exhaustive nationalization under the total war regime changed economic roles of village communities and rivers and also attitudes of village people, and that new types of nationalism, for example, economic nationalism, promoted the dam-construction by suppressing movements ideologically in the postwar period., Mar. 2005, 7, 51, 73, Research institution, False

This article discusses actual incentives for consolidation of municipalities through a quantitative analysis of 323 municipalities of Kinki region in Japan.

  • Not Refereed, Kyoto Journal of Sociology, A quantitative study on the role and meaning of liberal education among university students, Kiyotada Tsutsui; Jun Yoshida; Gentaro Mizugaki; Akihiko Sato, Historically liberal education and humanistic culture it offers have been tied up with Japanese higher educational system and have formed a core of elite culture. So at first they had two different characteristics: symbol of the difference from mass culture and preliminaries for advanced education. But the high economic growth in 60's and 70's resulted in prevalence of mass culture and practical mind and changed the characters of elite culture. In this article we analyze quantitatively on consciousness of contemporary university students in two largest urban areas in Japan. We conclude that they regard liberal education as a basis for specialized education rather than for humanistic culture and that they think they achieve humanistic culture through their company with their friends. Finally we offer several suggestion of this result., Dec. 1996, 4, 163, 176, Research institution, False
  • Refereed, Japanese Sociological Review, The Development of Historical Sociology in Japan, Kiyotada Tsutsui; Hideki Nakazato; Gentaro Mizugaki; Ken-ya Nozaki; Masayuki Numajiri, This article traces the development of historical-sociological studies in post-war Japan from a macro perspective, and characterizes it as a trend "from modernism to post-modernism".
    We focus on family, religion, rural society and culture, and estimate the contribution of
    historical sociology in respective field. Historical sociology proposed various topics such as modernization of rural societies, impacts of social history of Annale, moral economy. It should be concluded that historical sociology in Japan is currently on the way to development and divergence. We expect it to converge in the coming century.

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a joint project called, “RAKURAKU-NOUHOU or Farming Easy” to increase the sustainability of elderly farming communities.
    BACKGROUND. Rural communities in Japan are facing the problem of a lack of successors to the aging farmers. Although there has been more migration into farming communities from urban areas, most farming communities still consist main of elderly people who sometimes have difficulty farming due to its physically challenging nature.
    METHODOLOGY. Our project is implemented in a hilly, mountainous area located in the Kansai region, where some elderly farmers have been forced to give up farming because of its hard work in the steep fields. Our solution to make farming easier for the elderly is supported by the following four sectors:
    a) Mechanical engineering: Development of an electric transport vehicle that the elderly farmers can handle easily.
    b) Agricultural engineering: Including a shift from the cultivation of persimmon fruits to the cultivation of persimmon leaves that require less physical work.
    c) Health sciences: Measurement of the physical load of farm work and devices to reduce that load.
    d) Sociology: Investigation of farmers’ motivational system and social support network where they are embedded.
    FINDINGS AND CONCLUSION. In this paper, first we introduce the outline and process of this project. Next, we show how cooperation among the four sectors enables analysis and improvement to the community’s current situation. Finally, we consider the prosperity of the farmers and challenges ahead in this project., Competitive research funding, rm:published_papers

Its main purpose was to learn how the Victorian government made their administrational records accessible to the public on the Internet in this digital age. The on-site research revealed that the attitude toward the governmental records differs from country to country depending on the historical, social, and cultural context. According to this finding, we conducted the on-site research in several characteristic countries and held a research session at the international conference of academics., Competitive research funding, kaken

    (1)まず、前年度に引き続き、市町村合併に関する学術文献および先行調査例のサーベイを継続し、分析モデルの改善をはかった。具体的には、従来モデルに取り入れていた個別市町村の政治的財政的要因や通勤・通学ネットワークの完結性といったネットワーク要因だけではなく、近隣の市町村との相対的位置といった構造合理性要因が合併協議会の設置にいたる重要な要因であると考えられた。その他、地方交付税の削減がいわば時間要因として作用していることも考慮された。
    (2)前年度において市町村合併の動向についてのデータベースの構築を行ったが、今年度の新規情報についてこれを補完した。合併に関連したホームページ資料を収集した。この作業の一部を研究補助員に依頼した。また、民間データベース(日経テレコン21、Dファイル)を利用して、合併に関連する新聞記事資料を収集した。なお、いずれに関しても現存する資料は膨大であり、その整理作業の一部を研究補助員に依頼した。
    (3)これまでの作業によって構築されたデータベースを用いて、分析モデルのテストを行った。その結果、通勤・通学ネットワークの完結性といった社会ネットワーク要因がフレームとして作用するとともに、近隣の市町村との相対的位置といった構造合理性要因が重要であることがわかった。とくに財政的危機状況にある市町村の存在は特異点として周辺町村の動向に影響を与えている。ここではゲーム論的がアプローチも可能であることが示唆された。
    (4)特徴的な合併事例として、島嶼部との吸収合併を行った広島県呉市の実地調査を行った。島嶼間の架橋によるネットワークの促進がここでも大きな要因となっている。

We investigated this issue by distributing questionnaires and interviewing three groups of subjects : 11,439 community leaders from 11 local governments spread across the country, 5,104 government employees from 37 local governments nationwide, and four city council members from T city in Osaka (between Feb.2004 and May 2005). Here we highlight some of the main findings.
    1.Community leaders engage in considerable self-sufficient activities, but the network of leaders shaping the self-identity in communities is quite abundant. This serves to strengthen neighborhood mutual support, is a key factor in building community sentiment and participation in community activities, and strengthens community functional networks.
    2.Community leaders who take an active role in promoting self-reliant disaster preparedness have a strong orientation toward mutual assistance and are committed to an autonomous approach to disaster preparedness activities. And in the way they perceive local town disaster prevention issues, they also tend to support mutual-help issues through mutual-help participation, which suggests solidly-grounded perception as community leaders.
    3.Promotion of local educational activities that fully integrate home, school, the community, and government demands human resources (good leaders who are capable of leading and coordinating), public relations activities, and government cooperation.
    4.Examining local government promotion polices toward lower-ranking positions, we observed a shift toward a uniform seniority model by shrinking the distribution of promotions, and toward higher-ranking positions a transition toward a tournament model by reducing the probability of advancement. Both of these trends have the effect of increasing the attachment of employees to organizations, and are rational.
    5.Local government employees become increasingly loyal to their departments as they are promoted ("Administrative Man"),then as they move into the upper echelons, they begin to strive more to serve the public interest and develop more self-discipline and a greater sense of duty ("Public Man"), Competitive research funding, kaken

To this end, three types of surveys were carried out as follows. 1) Bureaucratic Career Survey (conducted 1998-2000) that used secondary materials to track the bureaucratic career of 1,575 top-ranked section chiefs and above who entered ministries and government offices in the period from 1935 to 1979. 2) Mailed Questionnaire (conducted July 1999) that surveyed 1,336 retired and active civil servants on a variety of issues including role recognition and identity, the influence of various players in the policy-making process, and postwar policy-making evaluation. 3) Oral Life History Survey (conducted February and July 2000) that targeted 123 individuals from among the respondents to the above questionnaire. Some of the results of these surveys were presented jointly at the Kansai Sociological Society Conference in May 2000 and at the Japan Sociological Society Conference in November 2000.
