Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aimed to highlight the nature of transnational social movements in a globalized society, with particular emphasis on the social movement of immigrant communities that influence the home country. As a major result, I can gather information on the situation of various immigrant communities and examine a part of their characteristics of their social movements in New Zealand and Australia. In addition, I have edited a book to analyse how people have affected by global network from case studies of various conflicts in pacific societies.
