Research Abstract |
In 1999 we focused on the research of the company entrance ceremony and company funeral. Prof. Nakamaki visited Duskin in Osaka and investigated its entrance ceremony and training of the new employees. As a result of this research, the relationship between Duskin and Ittoen is well-defined. We participated in the company funeral at SONY, and made clear of the corporate charactaristics of SONY and the personarity of Mr. Morita, late president of SONY, as a charismatic founder. We visited funeral such as Taisei Saiten, Ichiyanagi Sogu Sohonten, and researched on the historical changes of company funerals and special contracts. In 2000 we continued to look into entrance ceremonies, training of the new employee, and company funerals. Regarding the funeral company, we newly visited Koekisha, one of the biggest company in Osaka. This year we intestigated the interoffice marrige, and defined Japanese corporate culture which had mixed the public and the private. Through 1999 and 2000, we conducted researchs on the religious ritual of breweries in Kyushu and the corporate ritual at Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto, and defined the relations of traditional industry and religion. We have put together our research results and published a research report.
