| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
After the World war II, Amami archipelago (a group of islands in Kagoshima) was separated politically from Japan and ruled by America. Under the administrative separation continued from 1946 to 1953, people in Amami had claimed to rejoin Japanese governance. Their living conditions were poor and urgent, nevertheless political activities in Amami were done with thoroughly nonviolence like demo and hanger strike. They won their request with just legitimate political procedures in 1953, and this case is noteworthy in Japanese democracy.
I will analyze this case surrounding the national territory not from political science or international relations but from the point of view of cultural anthropology. The hypothesis I inspected by fieldwork was that there was some kind of folk culture and traditional social structure that characterized it in the foundation of Amami's political movement. I discovered that the most influential was the culture of youth group and their life stage system.
