Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study investigated the roles of Japanese religious groups which engaged in support activities for Indochinese refugees, particularly Vietnamese refugees in Japan. In Japanese society, the religious groups were mainly non-governmental actors in support activities for the refugees. Both the Catholic Church, which was a minority religious group in Vietnam where Buddhism was the dominant religion, and Japanese Buddhist groups participated in them because of humanitarian and religious reasons. Moreover, while Vietnamese Buddhists have rarely developed their community in Japan, the Catholic churches have played important roles in constructing Vietnamese ethnic communities and mutual aids between Vietnamese residents in various parts of Japan which had comparatively large Vietnamese populations. This study also points out that churches are places where Vietnamese residents have communicated with technical interns or students who recently came to Japan from Vietnam.
