项目摘要

This is the final report from a joint research project carried out under the title of "Socio-Cultural Transformation in Asia Countries : International Comparative Studies" with a 1999 grant-in-aid for international scientific research provided by the Ministry of Education.Right now, all the societies in the Asia-Pacific region are experiencing rapid and acute socio-cultural transformation due to current phenomena known as "globalization". Those transformations which reach not only cities but village directly are considered to be different from earlier socio-cultural changes, because they deeply disrupt people's living and endanger irreplaceable cultural heritages. People have begun calling for policy measures to prevent such dangers and preserve cultural diversities.This research project is an attempt to investigate into the actual conditions of socio-cultural transformations taking place in various places an Asia and also the ideas and measures of corresponding policies begin adopted. Five members respectively visited certain places in Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines, Vietnam and Laos, and Portugal in relation with East Timor, to observe and record transformations. Then, we held a small international workshop at which we had discussion with other area specialists invited from abroad and from Japan, presenting our interim reports. This is a collection of our reports in Japanese and outcomes of the workshop which was carried out in English.The researches done so far are pilot studies for further researched planned on a bigger scale. We have already collected cases in which people's transboarder migrations are causing direct changes to villages in Asia, drastically transforming people's attitude and consciousness. At issue is how to preserve cultural identities, and cultural diversities in the world as a whole. It is our convection that it is urgent to carry out this kind of studies on a larger scale, if we are to take appropriate policy measures.

这是1999年教育部国际科学研究资助项目“亚洲国家的社会文化转型：国际比较研究”联合研究项目的最终报告。由于当前的“全球化”现象，亚太地区所有社会都正在经历快速而剧烈的社会文化转型。那些不仅影响城市而且直接影响乡村的变革被认为与早期的社会文化变革不同，因为它们深刻地扰乱了人们的生活并危及不可替代的文化遗产。人们开始呼吁采取政策措施来预防此类危险，保护文化多样性。本研究项目试图调查亚洲各地正在发生的社会文化转型的实际情况，并提出相应政策的思路和措施。通过了。五名成员分别前往泰国、马来西亚、菲律宾、越南、老挝、葡萄牙等国与东帝汶的关系，观察记录变化。然后，我们举办了一个小型国际研讨会，与来自国外和日本的其他领域专家进行了讨论，并提交了我们的中期报告。这是我们的日文报告和英文研讨会成果的合集。迄今为止所做的研究只是试点研究，旨在计划进行更大规模的进一步研究。我们已经收集了一些案例，表明人们的跨境移民正在给亚洲村庄带来直接变化，极大地改变了人们的态度和意识。问题在于如何保护整个世界的文化特征和文化多样性。我们认为，如果我们要采取适当的政策措施，就迫切需要进行更大规模的此类研究。
