COVID-19疫情严重影响日本社区的生活方式。本研究通过关注日本城镇中的一项流行活动来考察大流行病的影响：参加传统节日，其根源可以追溯到江户时代之前。这些节日展示了每个社区的社会习俗和他们从过去到现在的繁荣。参加当地节日的居民深刻理解了他们在社区中的个人重要性。然而，由于疫情，许多社区被迫取消2020年的节日。于二零二一年，多个社区尝试恢复其传统节日，其中部分社区在实施感染控制措施后恢复庆祝活动。本案例研究探讨了人们如何在社区中恢复节日，以及他们重新参与传统所需的条件。以日本滋贺的长滨秀山祭为中心，展示日本传统社区的韧性。本研究分析了传统节日复兴和随后实施的原因和过程，并阐明了有助于地方社区恢复节日的积极因素。它考察了这些社区培养的韧性来源，并解释了他们的社会资本如何弥合地方政府，学校和广播公司之间的差距。
The COVID‐19 pandemic has severely affected the way of life of communities in Japan. This study examines the pandemic's impact by focusing on a popular activity in Japanese townships: participation in traditional festivals with roots dating back to before the Edo period. These festivals display the social customs of each community and their prosperity from the past to the present. Residents participating in local festivals gain a deep understanding of their personal importance within the community. However, many communities were forced to cancel their festivals in 2020 because of the pandemic. In 2021, many communities attempted to reinstate their traditional festivals, and some of them resumed the festivities with infection control measures in place. This case study examines how people resumed festivals in their communities and the conditions needed for them to reengage with their traditions. Focusing on the Nagahama Hikiyama Festival in Shiga Prefecture, Japan, we demonstrate the resilience of traditional communities in Japan. This study analyzes the reasons for and process of reviving and subsequently implementing traditional festivals and clarifies the positive factors contributing to the resumption of festivals in local communities. It examines the sources of resilience that have been cultivated in these communities and explains how their social capital bridges the gaps between local governments, schools, and broadcasters.
