Outline of Final Research Achievements

In our 3years study, we completed two main goals. One is to increase the reputation and recognition of "Development Sociology" in the circle of Japanese Development studies (especially in Japan Society for Development Studies). We have succeeded in publishing the special issue of "Development Sociology" in JASID journal of "International Development" in which our entire study team member contributed. Based on this issue, we made up a study team of Development Sociology within JASID.
The other goal was to publish introductory book for development sociology in Japanese. We have finished the preparation job for the volume named "Introductory book guide for Development Sociology" (in Japanese), which contains 60 basic books for the beginners of development Sociology　(to be published July 2015).
