  • A Study on the Practice and Educational Value of an International Co-learning Program with a Bhutanese University

    KUSAGO,Takayoshi, HASEGAWA,Shin

    2021.9

     More details

    To nurture young people from an international perspective who can respond to the advancement of globalization and contribute to the creation of an intercultural society, it is important to develop a new method in tertiary education, one of which is the development of international co-learning programs. This paper focuses on the International Co-Learning Program (MSBI@BT: Making Sustainable Society By Interaction at Bhutan), which was developed and piloted by Kansai University in collaboration with Royal Thimphu College in Bhutan, as a new educational method, and discusses the outline of the program and its educational value to participating students based on educational effectiveness, evaluation scales, and qualitative data.

  • Investigation of local autonomy and social change in the disaster recovery process in mountainous areas: 15years after the Niigata-Chuetsu earthquake

    Language:Japanese   Publisher:Japan Society for Natural Disaster Science  

    This paper introduces a long-term recovery process of Kizawa village hard hit by the 2004 Niigata-Chuetsu earthquake by paying special attention to local autonomy evidenced by survivors' evaluations. We classify the 15-year disaster recovery process into four periods named as "livelihood rehabilitation", "empowerment", "problem-solving" and "reorganization" and describe how the survivors tried to work collaboratively with outside supporters. We also show results of a process evaluation method for community life improvement and illustrate how the local people of the Kizawa village evaluated their recovery processes from their perspectives. Finally, we discuss the importance of tracing a long-term disaster recovery process and evaluating if endogenous initiatives were formulated and how these could change local community.

     More details

    Language:English   Publishing type:Research paper (scientific journal)   Publisher:PSYCHOLOGIA SOC  

    This paper introduces community-based action research as a new perspective and method for area studies. It discusses the potential to open a new field of area studies by actively assisting local people in understanding own local communities and in initiating improvements into own community lives. The authors discuss why community-based action research should be considered as area studies by sharing a real case using a community-based action research method. In the introduction, action research is introduced from its origin and history to its definition and tools. In the second section, the concept of a process evaluation method for community life improvement is explained. In the third section, we illustrate how this tool has assisted the local people of the Kizawa community in Niigata, Japan, in improving their own community life. The fourth section concludes by discussing the role of action research in community development and its relevance to area studies.

    Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has been utilized by academics and policy makers to indicate the economic well-being of the people. However, economic growth measures cannot capture fully the overall well-being of the people. This paper has tested quality of economic growth in Japan after World War II as to whether it has brought about positive outcome in the well-being of its citizens. Comparison between GDP and GPI (Genuine Progress Index) has revealed that GDP does not fit as well with people's life satisfaction trend as GPI. Prefecture-based rankings on GDP, Human Development Index (HDI) and Life Satisfaction have shown that there are clear gaps between objective measures and subjective measures to indicate the overall well-being of the people. Also, analysis on major determinants for people's life satisfaction reveals that older people, women, non-employed people, and those who live in subsidized housings felt satisfied with their life.

    Language:English   Publishing type:Research paper (scientific journal)  

    Post-conflict economic development is central to reducing poverty and improving local livelihoods. In this regard, many post-conflict development plans place a high priority on private-sector development. This paper examines the role of the private sector in post-conflict situations and discusses possible interventions for economic recovery based on a review of the literature and fieldwork in Timor-Leste. The paper identifies key factors critical to pro-poor private-sector development in post-conflict situations, with particular reference to Timor-Leste, considers some of the major obstacles, and suggests public policies to identify promising export products and to strengthen small and micro enterprises that might help the country to achieve pro-poor economic recovery and growth. © 2005 Oxfam GB.

    This paper examines conjugal household responsibilities/roles, preference heterogeneity and intrahousehold power relations in rural Malay families. Its three major contributions are to: provide an effective initial indicator of separate spheres within the family; develop and implement a method for measuring the extent of conjugal preference heterogeneity; and, illustrate the value of combining this direct measure of preference heterogeneity with a measure of power in estimating household expenditure patterns for three major items, food, schooling, and housing improvement. These three measurement innovations applied to the rural Malaysia context demonstrate the potential for more direct efforts to model and measure intrahousehold decisions.

    This paper analyzes the determinants of female migration to export processising zones (EPZs) in Malaysia. A comparison of the individual and household migration models reveals interesting and important contrasting results. First, the role played by the expected net income gains is opposite in the two models: negative in the individual model, positive in the household model. Second, family migration experience is significant in the individual model but not in the household model. Third, attitudes matter to the household decision on a daughter's migration but not in the individual model. These contrasting results suggest that explaining the daughter's migration decision may require more than separation of the individual motives and familial needs.

    This research is action research to support the younger generation of Bhutan becoming initiators of modernization with the characteristics of Bhutanese society where modernization rapidly progresses. In collaboration with Bhutan Media and Democracy and the Royal University of Bhutan, we conducted a community mapping project in two Bhutanese villages by "neighborhood study method" developed in Minamata City. The method promotes endogenous development. This research project has produced research papers and book chapters and made presentations in academic meetings.

    This action research aims at development of a practical reflection method over local livelihood changes by the introduction of endogenous development method at the local level. There are four major accomplishments of this research. (1) we succeeded in development of a proto-type of the subjective local life assessment survey in Niigata, Fukui and Hyogo prefectures, which measure changes at the local area. (2) we shared survey results with local people at the local area through a form of workshops by respecting the initiatives of the local people in their own local area development. This allowed the local people to exchange own views and concerns over their local areas. (3) we are able to identify key issues for researchers to engage action research. (4) we published academic journal papers and presented research method and findings in and outside of Japan.

    In this study, contrary to the standard account of institution insisting that a single stable institution is formed as a result of rational choice of strategies by economic agents, we have shown that multiple institutions might continuously coexist under a system of ‘institutional ecology’ where bounded rational agents not only choose strategic rules in games but also estimate game rules based on their value consciousness (meta-rule) and, from such theoretical consequences, presented an unprecedentedly synthetic and practical theory of economic policy that is composed of evolutionary ‘media design’ of platform institutions as well as ‘community dock’ with change of inner institutions caused by self-awareness and empowerment of participants.

    平成23年度は、アモラン・マジュムダーラ博士との精力的な共同研究により、おおむね順調に研究を遂行することができた。女性のリプロダクティブ・ヘルスに関する行動を分析対象とし、潜在能力アプローチがどのような点において、女性の出産活動に影響を及ぼすのかに着目、インドと日本のデータを用いて実証分析を行い、それらを用いて、論文を作成することができた。
    今回の実証研究では、インドの事例については、インドのデータ(Indian National Family Health Survey-3(2006))を活用し、インドの州間の女性の出産行動における差異の有無について分析した。理想的な子どもの数と実際の子どもの数の間の乖離に着目した独自の分類法に基づき分析した。分析の結果、理想的な子どもの数と実際の出産数の間の差異要因には、個人の属性に加えて、地域社会が規定する女性の生活上の制約条件の中身や程度をも色濃く反映していることを見出すことができた。また、日本の事例については、インドの事例と同様に、日本人女性の出産行動について、JGSSデータを活用して分析した。分析の結果、日本人女性の出産行動に関して、近年の経済停滞要因や伝統的な家長制度という価値観が社会要因として少なからず影響を与えていること、日本人女性はインド人女性に比べて、潜在的な能力を満たす外的環境に恵まれていることが示唆される結果を見出した。

    In this research, we conducted an interviewing survey to elucidate relationships between sociopathological phenomena and social capital. 1800 adults living in Hyougo prefecture were randomly sampled and 1063 people answered. The data from this survey provided three new insights. 1) The suicide rates related closely to people's satisfaction, the amount of support network and trust for neighborhood. 2) The effects of these three main causal variables on the suicide rates differed by a population size of each area. 3) In metropolitan areas, economical factors strongly affected the suicide rate, while a neighborhood relationship played a main role in local areas.

    Grant amount:\3600000 ( Direct Cost: \3600000 )

    平成17年度の研究の概要は以下の通りである。
    まず、ケニアにおいては、ナロック県の3年生までの不完全小学校の教員と子どもならびに家庭の個別調査を行った。特に不完全学校は、これまで学校のなかった地域に近年形成された学校であるために、親の意識の変化を含めて、急激に変化する紛争後の学校の変化を個々の生徒の観点から把握した。
    次にアフガニスタン、ネパールにおいては、紛争後あるいは紛争の中での教育の状況を教育省、学校、教育支援関係者の観点を整理し分析した。
    以上の研究の結果から平和構築に向けて、以下の2点が明らかになったと思われる。
    1点目は、緊急・復興支援におけるコーディネートがUNOCHAを中心として強まっていることである。これは支援の枠組みが国際的に強化されており、その枠組みの中で動く必要があることと、支援方法においてもINEEのミニマム・スタンダードに見られるように一定の統一見解が示されるようになったということである。つまり、自国の都合に合わせて勝手なことはできないということである。この点は平和構築支援においても国際教育協力の前提になってくると思われる。
    2点目は「難民効果」ということである。これまで調査したアフガニスタン、ルワンダ、シエラレオネ、東チモールではいずれも教育爆発とでも言うべき現象がおきている。その原因として、難民効果」とでもいうべき現象が挙げられる。コンフリクト等により難民あるいはIDPとなることにより地域を追われ、財産を失うことにより、新たな生活への展望として教育が重要視されること、農村部から難民キャンプという新たな組織、文化に触れることは一種の異文化体験であり、あるいは都市に投げ込まれたのと同じ状況になるのではないか。そうした中で、教育のもつ新しい職業に結びついた資格や技能の重要性が認識されると考えられる。
