Outline of Final Research Achievements

The principal investigator and 3 co-investigators published articles in Vol.25 of the Journal of Environmental Sociology, published by the Japanese Association for Environmental Sociology. This was a special issue on “Approaching Research on Military Issues from the Perspective of Environmental Sociology.” In addition, on 22 February 2020, the project group planned and held a public symposium at Meiji Gakuin University entitled “Societies with Advancing Militarization.” The principal investigator and each of the co-investigators presented their findings about their own field work. Three commentators gave their comments on these presentations. In addition, there were many questions from the approximately 70 people who attended the event, which resulted in lively discussion.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

軍事基地の建設や拡張などの軍事的な活動の広がりによって各地域がいかに変容したのかを、沖縄、岩国、京都府京丹後宇川、グアム、北マリアナ諸島、マーシャル諸島でフィールド調査を通して解明した。地域社会で広がる「軍事化」の実態を実証研究に基づいて明らかにし、軍事化が地域社会の環境や自己決定性や住民の意識にいかなる影響を及ぼし、地域社会をどのように変容させるのかを示した。また、こうした変化が社会に及ぼす効果についても考察し、軍事によって引き起こされる被害を広く捉える視点を提示した。
