| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
One of the most important forms of music within the Indian community in Japan is religious music, and Japanese people are also involved in this sphere. The main drivers of the globalization of Indian music in Japan are Japanese musicians who perform Indian music. Meanwhile, collaboration between different cultural communities through music is still in its early stages. While the number of joint performances between Japanese and Indian musicians is increasing, there is still room for deeper interaction. A genuine deepening of collaboration among Japanese Indian music performers, the general Japanese public, government institutions, and the Indian community is needed.
On the other hand, Japan--particularly Tokyo--which has not historically been regarded as a hub for Indian (musical) culture, is now connecting India, Japan, and the rest of the world, and may in the near future function as a center for the dissemination of Indian culture.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
近年日本では、外国ルーツコミュニティの増加が顕著である。こうした人々へに対する「労働力」としての眼差しは、彼らの生活の質の向上、ホスト社会との良好な接続、コミュニティ間の接続を抑制しているように思われる。
こうした状況に照らし、外国ルーツのコミュニティの音楽文化への着目とその理解、またすでに異文化音楽に興味を抱き実践する日本人の存在は、民間における異文化共生社会の実現や、国際社会における日本の立ち位置の再考に向けて、さまざまなヒントを提供すると思われる。音楽文化の存在は、こうした社会課題解決のヒントを提供できる可能性がある。
