The case of Kamagasaki district in OsakaHideo Aoki1983 Volume 33 Issue 4 Pages 2-19

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe “Yoseba” -laborers are a discriminated group, that is a minority group in Japan. Such a perspective on “Yoseba” -laborer has never been adopted in the preceding studies. In this paper I discuss three theoretical problems on “Yoseba” -laborer discrimination according to this perspective. And I aim to construct the working hypotheses on the structure of discrimination on “Yoseba” -laborers. First, I interpret the meanings which the difinition of “Yoseba” -laborer in the class theory might have for the discrimination theory. The “Yoseba” laborers are discriminated because of their lowest social status, and because of their district which is called as “Doya-Gai”. They are doubly discriminated. Thus we can define them as the minority group of minority group. Second, I pursue the logical process in which the “Yoseba” -laborers form themselves as a group. The minority group in the parent society are more. declined to become the “Yoseba” -laborers than the dominant groups. As soon as they enter the “Yoseba” -society, they are equally called as “Yoseba” -laborer regardless of their past categories. The “Yoseba” -society is the melting pot of diverse minority groups. Third, I construct the frame of reference in order to analyse the discrimination in the Yoseba-society. There the Burakumin, the Korean in Japan, the “handicapped”, and the Hibakusha aren't discriminated on the surface. But they are often discriminated in the concrete life situations. They are triply discriminated. We can define them as the minority group of minority group, and of minority group.
These hypothetical statements would give the theoretical direction to the future “Yoseba” studies. They must be tested with the abundant data.View full abstractDownload PDF (1881K) -
An analysis by new index of associationHideo Kojima1983 Volume 33 Issue 4 Pages 20-36

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIt is well known that the record of social mobility studies is paralled by a history of statistical analysis in which occupational mobility has often served as stimulus, Object, or illustration of statistical ideas. Since the development of modern social mobility study by English scholars led by Glass, many indices have been developed and applied to social mobility table. Among those indices, index of association has been most influential. The aim of the index of association was to eradicate the influence of marginal trends of father's occupation and son's occupation. But as it came to be clear that the index of association could not eradicate the marginal effects, little attention has been paid to it.
In 1970s.we observed a remarkable development of loglinear analysis developed by Goodman. Applying loglinear model to mobility table, we can now revise the index of association. A new index of association does not have a defect which the index of association has. The new index of association is freed from the size of marginals. In this paper we first explain the statistical background of the new index and illustrate the way how we can obtain it using 1975 SSM intergenerational mobility table. After illustration, we try to compare the trend of occupational inheritance based on 1955, 65, and 75 data sets. Also we illustrate the difference of the occupational inheritance rate based on the index of association and the new index of association.View full abstractDownload PDF (1883K) -
A case study of ritual organizationKen Arisue1983 Volume 33 Issue 4 Pages 37-62

Released on J-STAGE: October 19, 2009
JOURNAL FREE ACCESSSome characteristics of the urban festival can be observed in relation to ritual organization in local communities. This paper is based on research conducted at the Sumiyoshi Matsuri paper is based on research conducted at the Sumiyoshi Matsuri (matsuri meaning “festival”) in August 1980, which is held jointly by the Tsukuda and Tsukishima areas of Tokyo. This paper considers the process and structure of the urban festival from the viewpoint of the relationship between the social structure of there areas and of the organizations formed to carry out the matsuri.
First, the contrasting historical backgrounds of the Tsukuda and Tsukishima areas, which together make up the ujiko (or parishioners of the local Shinto shrine) area of Sumiyoshi Shrine, are described. Then, on the basis of the difference in their forms of organization, I label the part of the Sumiyoshi Matsuri which takes place in Tsukuda as the “insiders' organization” of the festival and that which takes place in Tsukishima as the “outsiders' organization”. A group called “Sumiyoshiko” organizes the festival as it is held in Tsukuda, the “insiders” area, and on the other hand the Tsukishima area's ritual organizations are based on the ready-made neighborhood organizations called chonaikai, which differ in size and structure from the organizations of Tsukuda.
As a result of this analysis, the following can be summarized concerning the relationship between the “insiders” and “outsiders” organizations :
(1) The division between the “insider” and “outsider” circles reflects the social structure of each areas, especially the rate of new comers and the residential forms in local communities are important indexes of the social structure.
(2) The relationships revealed in this urban festival show a tendency to include and exclude people at the festival.
(3) Both ritual organizations operating at the Sumiyoshi Matsuri, particularly that of the “insiders” area, must adapt to various social changes.View full abstractDownload PDF (3029K) -
Mitsunori Kadoguchi1983 Volume 33 Issue 4 Pages 63-81

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe major difficulty of Homans' psychological reductionism is that it lacks the way identifying given conditions which play an important role in his explanation of social behaviors. Critics have pointed out this difficulty in terms of the issue of tautology in exchange theory. To obviate this troublesome issue Emerson advocates replacing social relations with social actions as units of exchange analysis. His conceptualization of exchange relation is based on operant psychology. This is achieved without relying on the conception of motivation which is apt to lead to the pitfall of tautology.
In this paper, after the above discussion, I examine Blau's application of bilateral monopoly model from microeconomics to the exchange of advice for compliance, and consider the difference between social exchange and economic one. Finally, comparing the concept of 'dependence' with that of 'price', I show that though there is logical affinity between Emerson's conceptualization of exchange relation and bilateral monopoly model, they aim to analyze different objects.View full abstractDownload PDF (2754K) -
