Research Abstract

The head researcher conducted the study in Matsumoto Basin in Nagano Prefecture. Holidays for agricultural works originated in the mid-Meiji period in the elementary schools, mainly for transplanting riceshoots and for sericulture. Holidays were also taken for participaing in community festivals. During World War II,school children often helped agricultural works.
Holidays for agricultural works continued lasted after the war. Elementary schools had three such holidays : for spring sericulture, transplanting riceshoots, and for autumn seri culture. Such holidays were fewer in secondary schools and have become shorter or been renamed into "mid-holidays" since 1970. They were dissapeared by 1975.
The regionality can be identified through the variation of holidays for agricultural works during the period of the rapid economic growth. In urban areas, holidays, for agricultural works became shorter in the earlier period, reflecting the increase in the number of students who go to highschools. Abolition of the holidays also reflect the loss of the roles of elementary and secondary shool students in local community. Such a loss was a part of the factors of the increase in juvenile delinquencies.
