Research Abstract |
The aim of this research has been to collect and analyze data on the basic assumptions of the so-called "American Way of Life" in the latter half of the twentieth century, which, in reality, constituted the archtypical model of "good society" par excellence for practically every country in the world. While the student upheavals and a pervasive disillusion toward this model was fundamentally shaken in the sixties and seventies, we reached a basic understanding that it was the "phenotype, " not the "genotype, " of this model that gave the impression that American society has gone through fundamental changes. Accordingly, a few groups of researchers have collected materials and conducted interviews on different aspects of contemporary American society and culture (leisure activities, diplomatic relations, religion, ethnic communities, etc.) for three consecutive years. The accumulated data were mutually shared and discussed in a series of conferences. At the end of the third year, in March 1998, a three-day symposium to "wrap up" the research was held. Though the analysis of the data is still to be continued, we plan to publish the result, even tentative, in a year or so.
