Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This article examines and analyzes the possibility of autonomous community by focusing on the cultural aspects of Okinawa. Music and dance provide a space in which the Okinawan people have been able to affirm their identity. Eisaa, a popular Okinawan folk dance and music, has traditionally been performed during the summer and Buddist Obon. Youth associations have danced Eisaa historically, and currently, Eisaa has become a center of their activities. Music and dance are important parts of life in Okinawa. The Okinawan immigrants in Brazil, they built a voluntary Kominkan to help each other and to colonize the Brazilian society. In South American countries, Okinawan performing arts like Eisaa can be learnt in the voluntary Kominkan or in adult studies. By learning the popular Eisaa, Okinawan identity link the widely scattered Okinawan immigrant communities.As described so far, this example of regional community of Okinawa holds important lessons for the globalization today.
