    本研究課題は、中小企業政策が経営者とその家族をいかに組織し、中小企業経営に影響を与えたのかについて、ジェンダーの視角から歴史実証的な分析をふかめるものである。ジェンダー公正な中小企業経営は、グローバルな政策課題である。そのための基礎作業として、歴史を振り返り、その構造をさぐる研究がかかせない。本年度はこのために関連資料の読破と整理、各種中小企業団体の特徴の理解につとめた。 日本の中小企業政策は、中小企業団体の組織化の過程で、経営者本人のみならず家族の組織化もうながすこととなった。その具体的なありようを、各地の地域資料や商工団体資料等によって確認した。そこから明らかになったことは以下の点である。 一つ目に、当初想定していた法制化された地域経済団体(商工会議所、商工会)に関しては、婦人部の活動に関して、活動資金と諸準備に関して親会のそうとうな援助があり、他の婦人団体と異なる場合があったことである。このことの解釈や事例の位置づけにはさらなる資料発掘が必要であるが、組織の特徴を示す史料を発掘できた。二つ目の成果として、当初想定していた地域経済団体(商工会議所、商工会等)の役割という課題設定をこえる課題を確認できたことである。すなわち、中小企業税制は事業主家族内部の報酬配分にダイレクトな影響力を持ち、それに対して小規模企業経営者団体が独自の主張と運動を行ってきた具体的過程についての史料を入手できた。三つ目に、日本における女性家族従業者の組織の特徴を明確にするため、海外における中小企業者の動きに関して特にヨーロッパの資料の所在の把握につとめた。

    This research project focuses on the plight of young people living in local areas.These areas are characterized as suffering from a deterioration of employment opportunities compared to urban areas. We reveal how young people of construct their life-course through the pathway of career and marriage.This is done by exploring mechanisms of self-help. As the results, it is inferred that hierarchization of economic situation between local and urban areas is going on. What becomes apparent is that youth income is decreasing as result of employment deterioration which leads to an increasing reliance upon parental support. Such a situation leads to an erosion of future career perspective and marriage hopes. We suggest that what is needed is a two-fold social policy that fosters a sense of stability for your people through the expansion of substantial opportunities in the public sector and support for self-employment and start-up businesses.

    The purpose of this research project is to establish the viewpoint on re-constructing women's labor history after World War II in Japan. This is achieved through case studies in local regions. Our interest is on developing the methodology for articulating the relationship between women's labor and family structure, by introducing modern family theory and class theory. We specifically focused on women workers who engaged in the textile weaving industry in local regions, by adopting the fact-finding survey on their life histories. The primary research area is Katsuyama-shi in Fukui Prefecture where some large-scale companies of the weaving industry existed. We also took up the cases of Kawamata-machi in Fukushima Prefecture known as one of the center of small weaving businesses. Our research clarified that women's life course which continued working after marriage established, during the period of rapid economic growth, underpinned by specific regional and familial conditions.

    In the wake of our investigation into the occupation and marriage pathways of young workers' in local areas across Japan the following points became clear through our follow-up survey : First, temporary employment promotes late marriage or life as a singleton. Second, employment management in local enterprises seldom considers the career trajectory for young workers. They tend to leave their companies as "invisible strike" due to no-expectation for their upward career. Third, the social class background of young workers' parents continues to have a strong influence on their career or marriage pathways. Young workers, especially from the lower economic strata, experience difficulties in securing employment and, hence, their economic independence. This accentuates the danger of family economic collapse if their parents lose their jobs. If these issues are to be addressed then effective support mechanisms, so as to off-set the decline of local communities, are going to be required.

    The purpose of this project is to re-construct women's labor history after World War II in Japan, in questioning the process of 'women's work' has formed in the different ways that 'men's work', that has been applied long-term employment and seniority-based wage system, has formed. For this, we selected women workers who engaged in textile weaving industry at the northern part of Fukushima Prefecture, Kawamata where women's labor is accumulated, as investigation object. We analyzed the life history of former women workers in textile weaving industry and tried to clarify how their paid work was articulated with their family life.

    Postwar Japanese society has retained a relatively large amount of urban small and medium-sized enterprises. Families operating these enterprises are considered as holding different gender relations and gender identities from those of modern family. The aim of this research is to explore their lived experiences during the post-war period through focusing on policy orientations toward them, collective movements by themselves and spoken or written materials by individuals. How they have achieved their own relations and identities is outlined.
