Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we have investigated the changes of Japanese nationalism from 2009 to 2013. For that purpose, we analyzed two survey data sets which were collected in 2009 and 2013 all over Japan. The result shows that Japanese patriotism doesn't change a lot and purism tends to intensify a little. However, xenophobic attitudes can be divided into two types; xenophobia towards general foreigners and towards Chinese and South Korean. The attitudes towards Chinese and South Korean became stronger in 2013, and it is more affected by patriotism than in 2009. Between 2009 and 2013, Japan has experienced terrible diplomatic problems like Senkaku/Diaoyutai Islands dispute against China. It shows that national level conflicts can affect attitudes toward opponent nationals through some kind of nationalism.
