Comparative sociological study of disaccord among brothers

本研究从历史或世界的角度来探讨日本江户时代和前江户时代的历史记载和文献中出现的兄弟不和或争吵的事例。收集各封建领主的家谱记录，并将问题分类汇编成数据库。在资料库中不仅加入了兄弟间的不和事例，还加入了父子间的不和事例，以及亲属间的不和事例，以便从更广泛的角度进行比较分析。在江户时代，幕府或江户政府似乎扮演了监督者和谈判者的角色，有效地抑制或减少了下属或封建领主之间可能发生的继承问题。因此，兄弟之间或亲属之间的争吵被压制，以表现为一种公开的行动。除了上述情况，既定的长子继承制为弟弟提供了更少的机会声称自己。在此之前的镰仓、室町和战国时期，其特点是缺乏有效的中央权威和更灵活的继承/继承制度。在东南亚观察到共同阶段。在此假设下，我们收集并分析了马来半岛及其周边地区的苏丹或王公的资料，并以共同的风格对收集到的资料进行了描述和分析，并发表在一份中期报告中。

The research project aims to investigate the disaccord appeared among the brothers from historical or global points of view.Cases of disaccord or quarrels among brothers were picked up from the historical records and documents focusing on the Edo period, and Pre-Edo periods in Japan. Genealogical records of the feudal lords were collected, and the issues were classified and compiled as a database. Not only the disaccord cases among the brothers but also the disaccord eases between father and sons, and the ones among the kin-members were added in the data-base to enable an comparative analysis from wider perspectives.In Edo-period, Shogun or the Edo-government seems to have played the role of as supervisor and negotiator, and functioned effectively to suppress or minimize a possible occurrence of succession issues among the subordinates or the feudal lords. Quarrels among the brothers or among the kin-members were thus suppressed to appear as an overt action. In addition to the above-mentioned situation, established primogeniture system offered less opportunity for the younger brother to claim themselves. The preceding periods, i.e. Kamakura, Muromachi, and Sengoku were characterized by the lack of effective central authority and more flexible succession/inheritance system. The common phase was observed in Southeast Asia. The data for the sultans or rajas in the Malay Peninsula and the surroundings were collected and analyzed on this assumption.The data collected were described and analyzed on the common style and published in an intermediate report.
