Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research explores to what extent the reward inequality among workers is accepted as an appropriate gap and how it is legitimized in Japan by analyzing the data collected from a cross-national vignette survey on the just income of fictitious workers. The findings show that reward gaps according to gender and type of employment are accepted by Japanese and South Korean respondents, while this is not the case in the United States. Furthermore, female and non-regular Japanese respondents even consider that the reward gap should be larger against their interests. This acceptance and over-acceptance of the reward gap can be partly explained by the difference in the assumption toward the categories of workers generated by the institutional conditions of Japanese society.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
社会にはさまざまな格差が存在しているが,そのすべてが不平等として問題視されているわけではない.また社会においていかなる格差が問題とされるかも,国が違えば少しずつ異なっている.このような事実に着目し,本研究ではどのような格差が,なぜ受け入れられているのか,あるいは受け入れられていないのかを,実験的な国際比較調査を通じ,ひとびとの意識構造に着目しながら解明した点が大きな貢献と言える.本研究の知見は,格差問題の性格を理解し,またその現実的な解決策を考案する上でも少なからぬ意義を持つものと期待できる.
