| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This collaborative project successfully conducted and completed research disseminated in the following professional, international fora: 1) A session organized and conducted at the Association of Asian Studies 2019 (March) Conference in Denver, Colorado, USA. Four papers were presented. 2) Four published papers as part of the edited volume, The Global Education Effect and Japan (March 2020, ISBN 978-0-367-26218-1) in the Routledge series, “Politics of Education in Asia.” The main findings of our ethnographic study was that the term “abroad” alienates students who have found “home” at their “study abroad” destination. Analyzing student interviews and participant observation data in terms of the notion of time, nation-state ideology, border construction, and the role of English as the language of medium, we discovered complex identification practices. Japan can be a home for diverse individuals, whether they identify as “Japanese” or not.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
This research shows that “study abroad” student migration to Japan is faced with issues of 1) cultural politics, 2) implications of a “foreign” language as a medium of instruction, 3) high resistance to receiving immigrants, and 4) new institutional arrangements designed to “globalize” education.
