| Research Abstract |
The aim of this research project is to understand the relationships between economic advancement and traditional culture by exploring the model village for economic development from the anthropological perspective. As the result of the research project, I can make clear how attitude toward tradition affects the way of accommodating the concept of the economic development. Part of this research result was published in 2009 and the book was awarded the prize of Japanese Society for Oceanic Studies in 2010.
