The Sociological Amalysis of the Urban Renewal Project in the Age of the Post-Industrial Society

本项目探讨了日本特大城市城市更新项目的社会学意义。(1)收集了东京、大阪、神户、广岛等城市中心社区的实际资料，从《当代日本城市社区的衰落与复兴》的角度，分析了东京、大阪、神户、广岛等城市中心社区的面貌变化。(2)具体的城市内部社区，池袋、NIPPORI(东京)、Ikuno-Ku(大阪)经历了来自海外的新亚裔外国人中国、台湾、(3)关于阐明亚洲新来者在东京市中心地区的实际生活状况的田野调查方法，存在着激烈的辩论，尽管从较长时间的深度访谈中收集的研究数据生动地突出了新来者的含糊其辞的声音。(4)为了应对日本城市和社区生活的巨大变化，我们不得不关注后工业社会发生的许多更广泛的变化，包括跨国移民的影响。因此，人们对比较视角的兴趣很大，特别是海外亚裔飞地。为了证实这座城市现在被视为一个全球社会，最后一个项目(1994年)突出了这一主题。
