研究実績の概要

Based on the data set of subnational candidate manifestos collected and digitalized in previous two years, I conducted analysis of the diverging discourses around responses to Covid-19 among gubernatorial and national candidates. I also expanded this data by collecting and digitalising gubernatorial and mayoral campaign speeches. I presented findings at the VSJF 2022 conference in Zurich.

I also completed a co-authored paper by invitation, on the discourse of multilevel blame avoidance in gubernatorial elections to be published in 2023 in Senkyo Kenkyu. I have also expanded my working paper on ideologies of repopulating municipalities, presenting it at an international conference in Berlin on urban-rural issues. The related paper was peer-reviewed and published in Cotemporary Japan.

2: おおむね順調に進展している

理由

Expansion and cleaning-up of the data set of subnational candidate manifestos generated during the first two years of the project has continued smoothly. In the past year, I have expanded this by collecting campaign speeches of both mayoral and gubernatorial elections and creating text data for analysis.

Analysis of multilevel coordination and blame-avoidance among co-partisans, looking at Japan's gubernatorial campaign discourse around Covid-19, went smoothly as a result of this data set.

今後の研究の推進方策

I plan to conduct interviews of practitioners (subantional politicians and candidates) and fieldwork of gubernatorial and mayoral elections, to complement the textual data set for analyzing coordination with co-partisans and affiliated parties over various policy areas. I also plan to co-author a textual analysis article (to be presented at the EAJS 2023 Conference) comparing ideological cleavages of subnational and national elections.

I am invited to write two speparate articles: 1) on the ideological conflicts around depopulation in subnational elections and 2) "deviant" ideologies among gubernatorial candidates for two international journals by the end of 2023.

次年度使用額が生じた理由

Due to Covid-19 travel restrictions and inflated costs, I was unable to use travel funds as planned. I was also invited to two international conferences and did not have to pay for the travel costs, thus I did not have to use these travel funds. I intend to use these funds for traveling to the EAJS 2023 conference where I will be presenting and also for another international conference later in the year, if accepted (AAS 2024). I will also be using the travel funds for domestic travel to conducts mayoral and gubenatorial election fieldwork and interviews with candidates/politicians.
