| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Social inclusion or citizenship has been the basic idea in the discourses and practices of public relief since the dawn of modern Japan. But that is not the only possible way to argue for the "right to live" of the needy people. Looking back into the past we can see different ways of thinking about public relief.
In this study I explored the notions of "right to live" in early-modern and modern Japan. And I found two ideas that provided the logical and ethical bases for the "right to live" besides the idea of citizenship: moral economy and human rights. Through the sociological and historical analysis of contending arguments concerning the "right to live", I depicted the logic and the politics of the modernization of relief system.
