项目摘要

As a result of joint research activities with this grant for two grant years of 1999-2000, we formulated a larger joint research plan and proposed to establish with it a special research field under the titie of "Polyhedric Studies on Globalization and Social Transformation in the Asia Pacific". This is a plan to investigate into social and cultural transformations taking place under the impact of recent globalization in all the societies of the Asia Pacific region. Investigations should be carried out by area studies specialists over many relevant aspects, with bird's-eye-view methods and with international cooperation. The research activities in the past two yoars proved to be indispensable for designing this large scale research proposal which we firmly believe has an utmost value and necessity to be carried out.In our proposal we list a dozen aspects to be investigated in which serious social and cultural transformations are taking place under the globalization. Initial investigations over some of those aspects have already been taken up by the members of this grant project. They are such aspects as international migration, transformations in ethnic relations, internationalization of corporate activities, transformations of work culture. IT and education, transborder traffic and trade, and cultural diversity and cultural management.Other than the major result just mentioned, we carried out a pilot study, with the Population Research Center of Chulalongkorn University, of Thai-Japanese migration originating from certain villages in north-eastern Thailand, published some results of Japanese migration studies on an international journal, and constructed an English web site in order to disseminate internationally information of migration and ethnic studies in Japan.

经过1999-2000两年的联合研究活动，我们制定了更大的联合研究计划，并提议建立一个名为“全球化与社会转型的多面体研究”的专门研究领域。亚太地区”。该计划旨在调查亚太地区所有社会在近期全球化影响下发生的社会和文化转型。应由区域研究专家通过鸟瞰方法和国际合作对许多相关方面进行调查。事实证明，过去两年的研究活动对于设计这项大规模的研究计划是不可或缺的，我们坚信这项研究计划具有最大的价值和开展的必要性。在我们的计划中，我们列出了十几个需要调查的方面，其中包括严重的社会和社会问题。全球化背景下文化正在发生变革。该赠款项目的成员已经对其中一些方面进行了初步调查。它们包括国际移民、民族关系的转变、企业活动的国际化、工作文化的转变等方面。 IT与教育、跨境交通与贸易、文化多样性与文化管理。除了刚才提到的主要成果外，我们还与朱拉隆功大学人口研究中心进行了一项试点研究，针对来自泰国某些村庄的泰日移民进行了试点研究。泰国东北部，在国际期刊上发表了日本移民研究的一些成果，并建立了一个英文网站，以便在国际上传播日本移民和种族研究的信息。
