项目摘要

Japanese cultural anthropologists and local practitioners who actually are working on Africa are engaged in representing African cultures to Japanese peoples. On the one hand cultural anthropologists produce many specialized narratives concerning African cultures through their own anthropological fieldwork in Africa, On the other hand many Japanese local practitioners and travelers from Africa also represent African cultures through their own experiences in Africa. But these two ways of representing African cultures are often contradicted and even disconnected in Japan. In other words anthropological narratives based upon theory of cultural concept are disconnected from local practitioners^1 narrative emerging from their naive experiences of African cultures, I think this disconnection is blocking an appropriate evaluation for Japanese contributions to Africa, The objective of my basic study of representing African cultures in Japan constructs new relationships between anthropological … More practices and activities of local practitioners in Africa within the global situation.Achieving this aim firstly I started unlearnig my anthropological practices in terms of local practitioners from Japan to Africa. Second, focusing on Japanese travel discourses and literatures on Africa, I tried making clear the position of Japanese anthropologists in Africa. Third, I made an experiment for making the contact zone in which anthropologists and local practitioners are talking about their own African cultural experiences. Through theses basic studies I could have my anthropological vision for representing African cultures to Japanese and Africans in the different way from the long-established one. For example I am focusing on the new local cultural networks between rebirthing from Minamata disease in Kumamoto, Japan and from reconciling apartheid in Sowet, South Africa, This case study would be a model for connecting cultural anthropology with local practitioners in both local and global locations.

日本的文化人类学家和实际从事非洲工作的当地从业者致力于向日本人民展示非洲文化。一方面，文化人类学家通过自己在非洲的人类学田野调查，产生了许多关于非洲文化的专门叙述，另一方面，许多来自非洲的日本当地从业者和旅行者也通过自己在非洲的经历来代表非洲文化。但在日本，这两种表现非洲文化的方式往往相互矛盾，甚至脱节。换句话说，基于文化概念理论的人类学叙事与当地居民^[1]从他们对非洲文化的天真体验中产生的叙事是脱节的，我认为这种脱节阻碍了对日本对非洲贡献的适当评价。 ...更多信息为了实现这个目标，我首先开始从日本到非洲的当地从业者的角度来学习我的人类学实践。其次，以日本的非洲游记和非洲文学为中心，试图明确日本人类学家在非洲的地位。第三，我做了一个实验，让人类学家和当地从业者在接触区谈论他们自己的非洲文化经历。通过这些基础研究，我可以有我的人类学视野，以不同的方式向日本人和非洲人展示非洲文化。例如，我专注于新的地方文化网络之间的重生从水俣病在熊本，日本和和解种族隔离在索威特，南非，这个案例研究将是一个模式，连接文化人类学与当地和全球的地方从业者。少
