Research Abstract

In this research, intending to integrate the theoretical viewpoints of cross-cultural psychology and cultural psychology, and also intending to expand the notion of economy of modern economics, which is analyzed only within the market economy, to the notion of human economy of anthropology, we have conceptualized the notion of money not as the simple economical tool, but as the cultural tool, the meanings. Those meanings have huge variety depending on individual contexts including society, age, situation etc. Based on this theoretical viewpoint, we have investigated the structure of cultural meanings of money, the structure of children's life-world mediated by money, and the developmental change of them. Each research of this project have been executed dialogically by Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese researchers who have different cultural background.
