| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project have conducted the research mainly on ageing process in Lebanon which is considered to show the highest ratio of the elderly among the Arab countries through anthropological fieldwork.
The research shows that various confessional groups have been involved in taking care of elderly people through confessional-based institutions. This is due to the lack or insufficiency of the aid from public sector. Also, due to the persistence of kinship ideology to take care of the elderly by its members, especially young generation who try to migrate often feel social conflict between their future career and care of their parents.
The research results became opened through publications and oral presentations, in order to have the results open both to the academic and non-academic audiences.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は、高齢化について、次第に進展しつつも全体的にはそれほど研究の進んでいない中東地域において、レバノン共和国におけるフィールドワークによって、具体的な側面から実態を調査した点で学術的な意義を有している。
また、日本語による情報が限定されている同国の社会的側面の一端について行った研究という点では本邦に知的情報の多様性をもたらす意義がある。特に、一般読者向けのエッセイを通してそうした知見を社会還元できたことには大きな意味があろう。
