Research Abstract |
This study investigates the exclusionary attitudes toward foreigners. To clarify the determinants of the xenophobic attitudes, we compare Japanese attitudes toward four different immigrant groups: Korean, Chinese, South American and American immigrants. The result shows that historically constructed group positions are the most important factor affecting exclusionary attitudes toward foreigners. This study also explores a relationship between xenophobic attitudes and political consciousness. By analyzing international comparative survey data, someone who has strong xenophobic attitude is inclined to be non-partisan in the country where there is no strong far-right party. On the other hand, the pattern is not shown in the country where the far-right party has its presence in the national parliament.
