Gender and The 'community space' built by Japasene new first generation in Honolulu.

这项研究旨在阐明生活在夏威夷的日本女性是如何通过她们在檀香山的关系网来建立“社区空间”的。在夏威夷，有很多日本人在二战后移居夏威夷。他们被称为Shin-Issei(新的第一代)。我将重点放在檀香山的那些社交网络上。根据结果，得出以下特征。1)他们学习、发现和认识自己的社区空间，并根据自己的需求和情况努力使之多样化。2)他们受到日本经济问题的负面影响。3)这些网络是他们确认身份的地方：无论他们是日本人还是美国人，是生活在夏威夷的妻子还是工人。有时，他们会有意识或无意地复制自己作为一个保守日本人的身份，因为他们被期望表现得像个日本人。通过这些社交网络，他们建立了自己的社区空间，同时试图融入夏威夷社会。

This research is to clarify how Japanese women living in Hawaii build the 'community space' through their networks in Honolulu. In Hawaii there are so many Japanese who moved to Hawaii after W.W.2. They are called Shin-Issei(the new first generation).I focus on those social networks in Honolulu.Based on the results, the following characteristics are drawn. 1)They learn, find and recognize their own community space and try to diversify it according to their needs and the situations. 2)They are negatively affected by Japanese economic problems. 3)Those networks are the place for them to confirm their identity: whether they are a Japanese or an American, a wife or a worker in living in Hawaii. Sometimes they, conciously or unconciously, reproduce their identity as a conservative Japanese as they are expected to behave as a 'Japanese'. Though those social networks, they build their own community space while trying to assimilate in the Hawaiian society.
