地域づくり主体の形成過程

－内発的発展論の再定義を見通して－

抄録

  Endogenous development theory was popularized in the mid-1970s, and had a big effect on community development research. But, with the recent spread of globalization and neoliberalist national systems, it is necessary to redefine the theory from the study of adult and community education. I think that the main point is to clarify the formation process of the subject for community development.

  In this paper, I focus on the developments of green-tourism in Shikaoi, Hokkaido, and analyze the cases of the farm-inn managers that are located at the center of it. Through the analyses, three processes are indicated, as follows.

  (1) The process by which they became conscious of community development.

  (2) The process by which they renew relationships with outside communities in order to overcome the inner contradictions in their own community.

  (3) The process by which they construct cooperative relationships with subjects in their community.

  But there remains a crucial issue. This is to clarify the aspects that are peculiar to endogenous development. Future research will aim to complete the analysis of the case.
