这篇文章通过考察三四十岁的城市人搬迁到农村的实践和轨迹来探讨异位自我，其中一些人是乡村振兴志愿者。该项目由总务省资助，于2009年启动，受到了城市居民的高度欢迎。参与者有一至三年的时间与当地政府合作，参与促进乡村振兴的活动，并在结构性弱势地区为自己创造一种独特的生计。根据日本各地广泛的民族志研究，我强调了城市居民如何看待他们在新居住地的角色，他们的价值观和身份如何受到搬迁的影响，他们如何应对不安全感、风险和挑战，以及他们如何看待自己的位置在社区和整个社会中。我认为，城市人在不确定性、渴望、希望和不稳定之间扮演着模糊的角色。我研究什么策略和措施，个人使用的努力，创造异位实体在他们选择的居住地。通过这样做，本文的目的是一个更微妙的方法，关系空间的异位。
This article explores heterotopic selves by examining the practices and trajectories of urbanites in their thirties and forties who have relocated to rural areas, some of them as rural revitalization volunteers (chiiki okoshi kyōryokutai). Funded by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, this program started in 2009 and has been highly popular with urbanites. Participants have a one- to three-year period to engage in activities in cooperation with the local government that promote rural revitalization and create a niche livelihood for themselves in structurally disadvantaged areas. Drawing on extensive ethnographic research across Japan, I highlight how urbanites perceive their roles in their new places of residence, how their values and identities are impacted by the move, how they approach insecurity, risk, and challenges, and how they envisage their place in the community and in society at large. I argue that urbanites play ambiguous roles between uncertainty, aspiration, hope and precariousness. I examine what strategies and measures individuals use in making efforts to create heterotopic entities in their chosen places of residence. By doing so, the article aims for a more nuanced approach to heterotopia as relational space.
