抄録

This paper examines how "the person concerned" has some tendencies of the 2000's in Japan. In general, oral historians have collected various narratives told by the people concerned, who remember their past events. These days however, everyone always explains a situation as if he is "the person concerned". Therefore, the author thinks that anyone can be "the person concerned". Who is the person concerned? Nowdays an interviewer is thought "the person concerned" in a qualitative research method. The author thinks that in an interview situations, not only the interviewer's perspective but also various other perspectives of "the person concerned" are important. Besides, this paper examines various "voices" in orality. That is to say, it is required to hear voices of"the person concerned" one by one. Finally, some different aspects of "the person concerned" are expected to be explored.
