Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective of this research is to explore how "agrarianism" of the class system in pre-modern times determined social structure of Japanese rural society, by analysis of historical materials from rural are of Eastern Japan. Results of material collection analysis are as follows: Unlike Western Japan, In Eastern Japan most non-agricultural worker like craft workers were registered as "hyakusho" (farmer) class and defined grain producer institutionally. But Buddhist priests and "hinin"s were distinguished from "hyakusho" class obviously, because they were considered as "dirty" people. The experience that farmer and rural inhabitants had been confused in pre-modern Japan influenced the relationship between Japan Agricultural Cooperatives and rural community in modern Japan. Additionally, this research includes comparative study of Japan and India and was well received by domestic and foreign scholars.
