Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aims at establishing a street anthropology against the contemporary neo-liberalism. It has undertaken to grasp the actual condition of street-wisdom and the generation of new locality. The key point of the research results is in the elucidation of abductive activities in the threshold such as street edge or social edge which is created by the "Neo-liberalist Streetisation" embodying a thorough unification from the center, and furthermore in the exploration of the dynamic processes, in which self becomes other, inevitably found in such edges. I conceptualized is such processes as the "Fundamental Streetisation". People who are living with the instability of those edge must be a mirror that clearly reflects the living nature of contemporary people. The situation realistically asks a philosophical ultimate question "What a human living is." There is a raison d'etre of the street anthropology in its quest.
