Outline of Final Research Achievements

Although, lots of articles focus on Scientific Whaling in the Southern Ocean by the Japanese Government, whaling in Japan is diverse. For example, a small-type coastal whaling targeting berardius and pilot whales is legally operated. In order to make clear diversities of whaling industry and whaling cultural complex in Japan, the present research focuses on life histories of wide range of whaling industry workers and stakeholders such as small-type coastal whalers, a whale meat seller in Kitakyushu and an owner of whale meat specialty restaurant in Osaka. One of the results indicates that there are clear differences between commercial whaling and scientific whaling in that the latter needs more sophisticated technique in dissection. This is because the research needs the contents of the stomach. Selected six oral histories will be published by a Japanese publishing house in the end of this year (2016).
