ラジオ自作のメディア史

戦前／戦後期日本におけるメディアと 技術をめぐる経験の変容

抄録

　Previous studies of Japanese media history focused on the practices of

radio amateurs in prewar Japan. However, in postwar Japan, they played a

more active role. They crafted radio receivers and audio sets themselves, and

contributed to the development of media technology.

　　This paper attempts to describe their practices in prewar and postwar

Japan. Radio craft was a material practice which meant that crafting equipment

became a hobby, and the popularization and decline of radio craft in postwar

Japan was a process in which a diversity of other radio experiences converged

with receiving programs.
