Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research project is to establish the viewpoint on re-constructing women's labor history after World War II in Japan. This is achieved through case studies in local regions. Our interest is on developing the methodology for articulating the relationship between women's labor and family structure, by introducing modern family theory and class theory. We specifically focused on women workers who engaged in the textile weaving industry in local regions, by adopting the fact-finding survey on their life histories. The primary research area is Katsuyama-shi in Fukui Prefecture where some large-scale companies of the weaving industry existed. We also took up the cases of Kawamata-machi in Fukushima Prefecture known as one of the center of small weaving businesses. Our research clarified that women's life course which continued working after marriage established, during the period of rapid economic growth, underpinned by specific regional and familial conditions.
