| Research Abstract |
From1990s, the progress of globalization, the decreasing number of the youth, and the growing population of the aged in Japan has aggravated the identity problem of our communities in urban area (with the exception of Tokyo) and encouraged the powerless feelings haunted in their residents' minds. Basically, the identity of a community constitutes the infrastructure of citizens' movements. They are now threatened by the over-fluidity in our urban life. In our research project, we have tried to find out the latent possibilities of a spectator sport to solve these problems. Because the franchise area of a team in Nippon Professional Baseball League (NPB) often accord with the de facto outlines of an urban community, the marketing activities of a NPB team tend to stimulate its residents to be keen to their identity.
