Decision making & social cooperation in multiracial village

两名日本专家和三名立陶宛专家参加了这项研究。他们在立陶宛维尔纽斯省的Pagierai村研究了如何和平地组织一个多民族的村庄。我们的研究方法依赖于直接访谈。1996年7月，我们采访了11个波兰家庭。1996年12月，我们采访了12个鞑靼（伊斯兰）家庭。1997年2月，我们采访了8个俄罗斯和东正教老信徒家庭。1997年9月，我们采访了10个立陶宛和白俄罗斯-俄罗斯家庭。1998年1月，我们采访了4个白俄罗斯-俄罗斯家庭。1998年2月，我们对4个德国、卡拉伊姆、犹太家庭进行了访谈，并对学校、教堂、村公所等进行了访谈，主要内容包括家庭关系、继承方式和语言使用情况。我们在每个家庭都写了家谱。我们发现，在这个地区，许多民族和平共处，对少数民族的保护政策和不同民族之间的家庭关系有助于这种和平局面。没有对少数民族的歧视，特别是在学校和工厂。少数民族本身并不带来较低的收入水平。然而，立陶宛的高等教育是用立陶宛语进行的，这种语言障碍有时会给少数民族带来较低的收入。因此，想要更高收入的少数族裔经常去立陶宛小学。我们可以在一些少数民族，特别是鞑靼民族中发现某种立陶宛化的趋势。

In this research participated two Japanese specialists and three Lithuanian specialists. They studied, in Pagierai village of Vilnius prefecture in Lithuania where live several nations, how is organized a multiracial village peacefully. Methodology of our research depends on the direct interview.In July of l996 we interviewed 11 Polish family.In December of 1996 we interviewed 12 Tatar (islamic) family.In February of 1997 we interviewed 8 Russian and orthodox old-believer family.ln September of 1997 we interviewed 10 Lithuanian and Bela-Russian family.In January of 1998 we interviewed 4 Bela-Russian family.In February of l998 we interviewed 4 German, Karaim, Jewish family.Besides we interviewed school, church, village office and so on.Main scope of these interviews consisted in family relation, inheritance pattern and language usage. We wrote family trees in every family.We found the fact, that in this region many nations co-exist peacefully and the protective policy towards minorities and family relation between different nations helps this peaceful situation.There are no discrimination against minorities, especially in schools and factories. Minority in itself does not bring the lower income level. However, the higher education in Lithuania is done in Lithuanian language and this language barrier brings sometimes the lower income to the minorities. Therefore the minority, who wants higher income, often goes to Lithuanian elementary school. We could find a certain tendency of Lithuaniazation in some minorities, especially in the Tatar nation.
