Basic research to reconstruct plurilingual and pluricultural competence concepts: Farmers' strategies and philosophy to accept otherness.

外语教学一直关注多元语言和多元文化能力，这是由欧洲会议提出的外语教育目标。然而，我们假设，人们可能会获得平等对待多种语言和文化的态度，在不同文化之间进行调解并与他人合作生活的能力，即使他们没有特殊的机会学习多种语言和文化。在本研究项目中，Segawa对多元语言和多元文化能力的概念进行了批判性的分析，(2)Segawa和Ichishima为西溪町、仙保、秋田的国际学生进行了农场停留项目的实地考察，(3)Ichishima对参与者进行了跟踪采访。作为研究的结果，我们展示了农民接受差异性的沟通策略，以及他们的部分哲学思想作为策略的背景。也就是说，我们的研究项目可以证实这一假设。

Foreign language pedagogies have being interested in plurilingual and pluricultural competences which were proposed by European Conference as goals of foreign language education. However, we hypothesized that it is possible people acquire attitudes to treat plural languages and cultures equally, competence to mediate between different cultures and to live with others cooperatively, even if they don't have special opportunities to learn plural languages and cultures.In this research project, (1)Segawa analyzed concept of plurilingual and pluricultural competence critically, (2)Segawa and Ichishima did fieldwork of farm stay program for international students in Nishiki-cho, Senboku, Akita, (3)Ichishima did follow-up interviewed to participants.As results of the researches, we showed farmers' communication strategies to accept otherness and some parts of their philosophy as the background of the strategies. Namely, our research project could confirm the hypothesis.
