| Research Abstract |
We have already conducted life-story interviews with over 200 persons who are leprosy-affected persons and their families. As one of our research results, we published books, Testimonies at the Kuryu-Rakusenen Hanse's Disease Sanatorium (3 volumes). Some persons expressed resentment against being confined to the institution, but some expressed gratefulness to the same treatment. We find that these seemingly contradictory feelings are actually two sides of the same coin ; both have been constructed by the effects of the Leprosy Prevention Law. As these complicated emotions have not quite gone away, even now many patients' families as well as socially-rehabilitated patients out of the institution find it difficult to secure their own place where they can have peace of mind.
