existing critical literature constructs Smart Cities (SC) as sites of technocratic governance, hidden within a socio-technically imagined utopian discourse that originated in the "Global North" but has already deeply penetrated the "Global South". The substantial inflow of SCrelated foreign investment into emerging Asian countries, such as Thailand, has motivated this paper to shed new light on the extensive nature of investment in the region. The authors have chosen to examine a SC project supported by Japanese Official Development Assistance in Bangkok's Bang Sue district. This case study enables them to investigate the SC concept within the broader context of international politico-economic power struggles, particularly between Thailand and Japan in the realm of international cooperation. Using the concept of strategy, this study conceptualises the establishment of Smart Cities as each nation's approach to advancing both national economic interests and international security. The examination of the policy history of SC conception in Thailand and Japan reveals diverse motivations behind these initiatives. Thailand seeks to shift its economic weight to the digital and knowledge sectors, while Japan targets economic and security enhancements in the Indo-Pacific region. Despite the common strategy of developing SC infrastructure in the Bang Sue area, the analysis identified nuanced differences in their goals. Further scrutiny of project documents revealed: 1) strategic distancing within the project, 2) technocratic traits within the project process, and 3) the role of socio-technical utopian discourse beyond ideology.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="128bd68f288b34e1c6f0d873f739a266" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":121394357,"asset_id":127700500,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121394357/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="127700500"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="127700500"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 127700500;

Special attention is given to economic disparity, subjective evaluations of inequality, social stratification, social class, regional inequality and gender inequality. It traces paradigm shifts as well as the accumulated insights in a given field of study. What becomes particularly apparent is the absence of meaningful conversation between the field of social stratification and the field of social class study. On the basis of their agreement on substantial conceptualisation of class, the contestation at an ideological level emerged. This prevented the Japanese field of social inequality study from developing an overarching theoretical framework, which enables us to draw a comprehensive picture of unequal social realities in Japan.

Within the ongoing framework of regional revitalisation (chihôsôsei), various local attempts to foster revitalisation (kasseika) are underway. Two seemingly irreconcilable views prevail in connection with volunteer-based localism: local participation and the mobilisation of civic action. However, the ways in which these seemingly distinct phenomena can socially coexist are relatively unexplored. Against this background, this article aims to offer a critical re-examination of regional revitalisation projects in Japan and it focuses on the correlation between local participation patterns and local power structures. Taking one community as its empirical case study, the central question posed is: 'In reality, who are the motivated participants in the community-revitalisation project?' What becomes apparent is, on the one hand, the locality's power structure strongly limits the level of participation in the project; on the other hand, the locality's inhabitants experience the ongoing situation as fundamentally fair and reasonable. On this basis, this article argues that the state's governing discourse of neoliberalism is able to advance at the local level while simultaneously and unwittingly perpetuating the structure of social segregation.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="ea73740acdebe40a04adff857550d845" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":59929639,"asset_id":39749357,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/59929639/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="39749357"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="39749357"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 39749357;

However, it does not mean that the constructed power structures of the past simply disappeared. On the contrary, unequal power structure of the past is incorporated by individuals and perpetuated in everyday life in symbolic manner. This is a proposition that the French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu proposed with his theory of symbolic domination and the scholars of global inequality further developed on the basis of empirical efforts. In accord with this proposition, this research takes up contemporary Japanese society as a case. This article paid particular attention to the sociocultural background of neo-liberal political mobilization in contemporary Japan. Concretely, it demonstrates how pre-modern structures of powers (or sociocultures) continue to operate in implementation of a project of neo-liberalism in one village, while the local inhabitants experience a given ongoing situation as fair and reasonable. What becomes apparent is that members of the village, where the fieldwork was carried out, shares the locally specific interpretation of society in terms of social boundaries of the group, its delimitation, its membership at large and so on. This is what this article calls social ontology. As it is incorporated and mediated symbolically, the historically constituted therefore locally specific structures of unequal power relationships of the pre-modern era (or sociocultures) of this village remains invisible and persists in everyday practice beneath the discursive layer of neo-liberal egalitarianism. From this standpoint, it concludes that implementation of neo-liberal policies have contributed to a worsening of social inequality in the sense that they render the existence of social segregation invisible by transforming the justification for and the appearance of existing socio-cultural structures at the discourse level.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="9f34e49c9147dcbe9e6242d5bb416c38" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":58804739,"asset_id":38720247,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/58804739/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="38720247"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="38720247"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 38720247;

Regardless of their inseparability, an asymmetrical development in the reception of Bourdieu's ideas is apparent in the relevant fields of study in Japan. The myth of an egalitarian society and strong domestic political interests to establish the positive relationship between the proliferation of educational opportunity and upward social mobility have contributed to keeping scholars primarily focused on the theory of cultural reproduction. On the other hand, the theory of symbolic violence has been rejected as being specific to the French context. The general lack of reflexivity between the theory of cultural reproduction and the theory of symbolic violence indicates that Bourdieu's habitus theory has been appropriated in the Japanese cultural context as a simple analytical tool, while his overall theory exists as a discursive totality in discourses. Due to this asymmetrical development, regardless of the fact that Bourdieu, himself, pointed out the relevance of his theory to Japanese society, those studying Bourdieu in Japan itself have failed to produce relevant knowledge regarding the nature of social inequality in Japan.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="ebeac7d92e72d413a509145b865dc021" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":45877448,"asset_id":25545400,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/45877448/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="25545400"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="25545400"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 25545400;

From this perspective, there are two seemingly exclusive governing discourse on smart cities. (1) Promoting discourse which is socio-technically imagined utopianism; (2) Critical discourse which points out technocratic and neoliberal governance. Against this ground, this presentation will discuss how these discourses coexist in the actual process of smart city making in the negotiation of the strategic interests of Japan and Thailand rooted in ODA. To observe the negotiation of strategic distance between donor country and host country, a case study from Bangkok, Thailand will be introduced. The government of Thailand constructed by the Japanese International Cooperation Agency (JICA) in collaboration with a Japanese private consultancy firm to develop the Bang Sue smart city project on the land of State Railway of Thailand. In this case study, the structural vacuum to take moral responsibility to guarantee democratic fairness, social justice and human rights is made apparent. The technically imagine smart future of the city mutually transforms in a series of policy processes in increasingly intense competition and negotiation between donor and host countries in the nod of smart city investment. In case of Bang Sue Smart city, socio-technical imagined future offers a basis to form a mutual agreement between Japan and Thailand, but it conceals the technocratic policy planning and neoliberal implementation of the agreed vision. A policy, formulated with technocratic attitude does lack consideration on citizenry. The responsibility to guarantee democratic fairness and social justice mentioned in the master plan is passed to the hands of international private constructers who may not be concerned with the public interest or the master plan.The article highlights the potential consequences of this project, including the widening gap between the center and periphery of Bangkok; the geographically fragmented smartification due to the lack of a holistic approach to urban planning, and; the risk of gentrification that could lead to the removal of residents, especially those from the urban informal sector and not-documented migrant workers.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="84be3a1ff342556c3ee2ae1456f9e87e" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":105199646,"asset_id":105842728,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/105199646/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="105842728"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="105842728"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 105842728;

The greater part of the existing literature treats the participatory aspects of the project as signs of the empowerment of civil society as a whole. However, when we remember that it is the very same central government that is promoting this local activism, the notion of empowerment immediately becomes questionable. My paper takes a critical perspective on the issue questioning whether to the participants in the community building projects are not the unwitting facilitators of the neo-liberal goals of the State. Taking the case of one Japanese village community as my empirical ground, the key question I pose is: " Who actually are the motivated participants in a state-sponsored community-building project in a specific village? " To answer this question, I study the historically constituted and therefore locally specific structure of social hierarchy in a locality, i.e. the locality's socio-culture. Concretely, I demonstrate, on the one hand, that the limits on participation in the project are, in fact, socio-culturally structured at the village level. On the other hand, the inhabitants of the village experience and understand the given structured social reality that they live in as fair and reasonable. Applying a theoretical framework suggested by Pierre Bourdieu, I approach the underlying mechanism of the observed social reality in the everyday life of local inhabitants found in the relationship between human agency and social institutions. My study concludes that the neo-liberalization of the governing discourse at the state level advances at the local level while simultaneously perpetuating the structure of social inequality that it is meant to reduce. By presenting the highly locally specific nature, yet highly politically significant structure, of rural communities, my study contributes to the elucidation of a newly emerging, and possibly encompassing, aspect of the complexity and diversity of rural life in Japan.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="2bf114344408b016121ffc9233dd36b1" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":52714497,"asset_id":32531713,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/52714497/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="32531713"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="32531713"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32531713;

However, new approaches to the topic have not yet been sufficiently developed. The term precariat indicates the group of people whose life situation is precarious because of their unstable working contracts and conditions. The term is strongly associated with non-regular workers, not only because of their lack of a sense of security regarding their lives and their employment, but also because of the dramatic increase in their numbers in recent years. The increase is particularly noticeable in contemporary Japan. Despite their elusiveness, the precariat has been considered as a homogeneous group in a social stratification study or a social class study. In this paper, I argue that the existing framework cannot adequately grasp the heterogeneous characteristics of non-regular workers; instead, I suggest that it is rather a combination of different milieux, i.e. social spaces of differences. Using a framework derived from Bourdieu's concepts of capital and milieu, I endeavor to identify significant factors to enable us to make a distinction between skilled and non-skilled non-regular workers in the Japanese context. This paper therefore determines significant changes in the socio-cultural characteristics of the new precariat based upon Japanese data.

In Chapter 2, I apply this consideration to observe the legally framed nature of social inequality in the neo-liberal capitalist societies at a theoretical level. The result was to find the current egalitarian principles -Fair Equality of Opportunity (FEO) and their practice, hand in hand with meritocracy, functions as a translator of the existing structures of social hierarchy at birth -socio-culture, into politically justifiable socio-economic disparities between individuals over time. In the following Chapter 3, I approach the underlying mechanism of this persisting social inequality by using the theoretical framework of symbolic violence proposed by Pierre Bourdieu. His theoretical framework suggests that the existence of social inequality is justified because individual socio-economic positions are misrecognised as being the direct results of individual achievements via meritocracy. Widespread belief in fair social competition can thus contribute to concealing existing structures of social hierarchy behind the logic of equality and freedom. In order to test the explanatory power of this theoretical framework, I ask a research question: Is a concept of life as being the direct result of personal achievements internalised and acted upon by individuals to perpetuate the existing structure of social inequality in the society in which they live?</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="ac42483c3121b331b0917811402240cf" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":52714621,"asset_id":32531844,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/52714621/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="32531844"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="32531844"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32531844;

A special attention is given to economic disparity, subjective evaluations of inequality, social stratification, social class, regional inequality and gender inequality. It traces paradigm shifts as well as the accumulated insights in a given field of study. What becomes particularly apparent is the absence of meaningful conversation between the field of social stratification and the field of social class study. On the basis of their agreement on substantial conceptualisation of class, the contestation at an ideological level emerged. This prevented the Japanese field of social inequality study from developing an overarching theoretical framework, which enables us to draw a comprehensive picture of unequal social realities in Japan. In support of recent calls for revaluation of class theory on the basis of analytical turn, I conclude this chapter by emphasising the benefit of situating Japan in the context of global inequality.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="5ae359495c4408694b422afb614029ec" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":87772966,"asset_id":81885425,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/87772966/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="81885425"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="81885425"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 81885425;

It is certain that stakeholders at various levels often understand 'regionally unique characteristics' at face value, in a purely economic sense. Accordingly, various projects of regional vitalisation often take the shape of a cultural re-branding of local products and/or spaces, with a goal to promoting tourism as well as enhancing domestic relocation. On the other hand, more and more investigations from the field of rural studies emphasise the significance of taking seriously the socio-historical context found in a locality, in order to bring the local empowerment and sustainable development that the central government envisages, to fruition. However, an overarching analytical framework is not yet established. Against this background, I draw attention to the potential of the sociological concept of socio-culture that indicates historically constituted, and therefore locally specific, structures of social hierarchy. This concept makes it possible to grasp how local inhabitants, within the regionally unique socio-historical contexts in which they live, adopt the top-down policy of the state differently. In this sense, I talk about the revitalisation of socio-culture. Taking this idea as my point of departure, I refer to the epistemological and methodological implications for data collection that this concept entails, and conclude by highlighting the crucial blind spot embedded in the snowballing method, a method that is widely used to obtain access to reliable informants.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="05963f75b48a6aacae17e46d4d54d35e" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":54431911,"asset_id":34566426,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/54431911/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="34566426"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="34566426"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34566426;

The seminar, at first, introduce students the intellectual history and the relevant theoretical approaches of Japanese studies. Then, it moves on to tackle various social challenges and social realities of the social weak. The societal challenges planned to be covered in the seminar are: 1. society with widening economic disparity 2. Reproduction of inequality in meritocratic society 3. censorship and Information society 4. precarity in Neo-liberal economy 5. rural decline in neo-liberal politics 6. Aging society and lowering birthrate 7. neo-liberal mobilization of civil society 8. the rise of nationalism The seminar has been initially planned and addressed to Master's student of PGO program, but it is also open for Bachelor's students from Japanese study department. Each session will combine a short lecture and discussion among students on the topic. In order to have a lively discussion, all the readings are mandatory. In the end of the seminar, students are expected to give an oral presentation. The seminar is provided by Dr. Kie Sanada. She is awarded her Ph.D. in Global and Area studies in 2017 from Humboldt University, Berlin. Global and Area studies is a branch of sociology, which aims at studying global challenges on the basis of observation of social phenomena as it is experienced at the locality. Among all the global challenges, her particular focus is on perpetuation of social inequality in Japan.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="e376da155e7a0162501d4b62c684d841" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":87773643,"asset_id":81886447,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/87773643/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="81886447"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="81886447"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 81886447;

The substantial inflow of SCrelated foreign investment into emerging Asian countries, such as Thailand, has motivated this paper to shed new light on the extensive nature of investment in the region. The authors have chosen to examine a SC project supported by Japanese Official Development Assistance in Bangkok's Bang Sue district. This case study enables them to investigate the SC concept within the broader context of international politico-economic power struggles, particularly between Thailand and Japan in the realm of international cooperation. Using the concept of strategy, this study conceptualises the establishment of Smart Cities as each nation's approach to advancing both national economic interests and international security. The examination of the policy history of SC conception in Thailand and Japan reveals diverse motivations behind these initiatives. Thailand seeks to shift its economic weight to the digital and knowledge sectors, while Japan targets economic and security enhancements in the Indo-Pacific region. Despite the common strategy of developing SC infrastructure in the Bang Sue area, the analysis identified nuanced differences in their goals. Further scrutiny of project documents revealed: 1) strategic distancing within the project, 2) technocratic traits within the project process, and 3) the role of socio-technical utopian discourse beyond ideology.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="128bd68f288b34e1c6f0d873f739a266" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":121394357,"asset_id":127700500,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/121394357/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="127700500"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="127700500"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 127700500;

From the perspective of smart cities as a matter of political governance, this article highlights the characteristics of smart city initiatives in Japan and the EU in terms of their policy development. On this basis, the author seeks to identify focal points where their policy interests converge.

Special attention is given to economic disparity, subjective evaluations of inequality, social stratification, social class, regional inequality and gender inequality. It traces paradigm shifts as well as the accumulated insights in a given field of study. What becomes particularly apparent is the absence of meaningful conversation between the field of social stratification and the field of social class study. On the basis of their agreement on substantial conceptualisation of class, the contestation at an ideological level emerged. This prevented the Japanese field of social inequality study from developing an overarching theoretical framework, which enables us to draw a comprehensive picture of unequal social realities in Japan.

Within the ongoing framework of regional revitalisation (chihôsôsei), various local attempts to foster revitalisation (kasseika) are underway. Two seemingly irreconcilable views prevail in connection with volunteer-based localism: local participation and the mobilisation of civic action. However, the ways in which these seemingly distinct phenomena can socially coexist are relatively unexplored. Against this background, this article aims to offer a critical re-examination of regional revitalisation projects in Japan and it focuses on the correlation between local participation patterns and local power structures. Taking one community as its empirical case study, the central question posed is: 'In reality, who are the motivated participants in the community-revitalisation project?' What becomes apparent is, on the one hand, the locality's power structure strongly limits the level of participation in the project; on the other hand, the locality's inhabitants experience the ongoing situation as fundamentally fair and reasonable. On this basis, this article argues that the state's governing discourse of neoliberalism is able to advance at the local level while simultaneously and unwittingly perpetuating the structure of social segregation.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="ea73740acdebe40a04adff857550d845" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":59929639,"asset_id":39749357,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/59929639/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="39749357"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="39749357"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 39749357;

However, it does not mean that the constructed power structures of the past simply disappeared. On the contrary, unequal power structure of the past is incorporated by individuals and perpetuated in everyday life in symbolic manner. This is a proposition that the French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu proposed with his theory of symbolic domination and the scholars of global inequality further developed on the basis of empirical efforts. In accord with this proposition, this research takes up contemporary Japanese society as a case. This article paid particular attention to the sociocultural background of neo-liberal political mobilization in contemporary Japan. Concretely, it demonstrates how pre-modern structures of powers (or sociocultures) continue to operate in implementation of a project of neo-liberalism in one village, while the local inhabitants experience a given ongoing situation as fair and reasonable. What becomes apparent is that members of the village, where the fieldwork was carried out, shares the locally specific interpretation of society in terms of social boundaries of the group, its delimitation, its membership at large and so on. This is what this article calls social ontology. As it is incorporated and mediated symbolically, the historically constituted therefore locally specific structures of unequal power relationships of the pre-modern era (or sociocultures) of this village remains invisible and persists in everyday practice beneath the discursive layer of neo-liberal egalitarianism. From this standpoint, it concludes that implementation of neo-liberal policies have contributed to a worsening of social inequality in the sense that they render the existence of social segregation invisible by transforming the justification for and the appearance of existing socio-cultural structures at the discourse level.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="9f34e49c9147dcbe9e6242d5bb416c38" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":58804739,"asset_id":38720247,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/58804739/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="38720247"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="38720247"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 38720247;

Regardless of their inseparability, an asymmetrical development in the reception of Bourdieu's ideas is apparent in the relevant fields of study in Japan. The myth of an egalitarian society and strong domestic political interests to establish the positive relationship between the proliferation of educational opportunity and upward social mobility have contributed to keeping scholars primarily focused on the theory of cultural reproduction. On the other hand, the theory of symbolic violence has been rejected as being specific to the French context. The general lack of reflexivity between the theory of cultural reproduction and the theory of symbolic violence indicates that Bourdieu's habitus theory has been appropriated in the Japanese cultural context as a simple analytical tool, while his overall theory exists as a discursive totality in discourses. Due to this asymmetrical development, regardless of the fact that Bourdieu, himself, pointed out the relevance of his theory to Japanese society, those studying Bourdieu in Japan itself have failed to produce relevant knowledge regarding the nature of social inequality in Japan.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="ebeac7d92e72d413a509145b865dc021" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":45877448,"asset_id":25545400,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/45877448/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="25545400"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="25545400"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 25545400;

From this perspective, there are two seemingly exclusive governing discourse on smart cities. (1) Promoting discourse which is socio-technically imagined utopianism; (2) Critical discourse which points out technocratic and neoliberal governance. Against this ground, this presentation will discuss how these discourses coexist in the actual process of smart city making in the negotiation of the strategic interests of Japan and Thailand rooted in ODA. To observe the negotiation of strategic distance between donor country and host country, a case study from Bangkok, Thailand will be introduced. The government of Thailand constructed by the Japanese International Cooperation Agency (JICA) in collaboration with a Japanese private consultancy firm to develop the Bang Sue smart city project on the land of State Railway of Thailand. In this case study, the structural vacuum to take moral responsibility to guarantee democratic fairness, social justice and human rights is made apparent. The technically imagine smart future of the city mutually transforms in a series of policy processes in increasingly intense competition and negotiation between donor and host countries in the nod of smart city investment. In case of Bang Sue Smart city, socio-technical imagined future offers a basis to form a mutual agreement between Japan and Thailand, but it conceals the technocratic policy planning and neoliberal implementation of the agreed vision. A policy, formulated with technocratic attitude does lack consideration on citizenry. The responsibility to guarantee democratic fairness and social justice mentioned in the master plan is passed to the hands of international private constructers who may not be concerned with the public interest or the master plan.The article highlights the potential consequences of this project, including the widening gap between the center and periphery of Bangkok; the geographically fragmented smartification due to the lack of a holistic approach to urban planning, and; the risk of gentrification that could lead to the removal of residents, especially those from the urban informal sector and not-documented migrant workers.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="84be3a1ff342556c3ee2ae1456f9e87e" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":105199646,"asset_id":105842728,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/105199646/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="105842728"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="105842728"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 105842728;

The greater part of the existing literature treats the participatory aspects of the project as signs of the empowerment of civil society as a whole. However, when we remember that it is the very same central government that is promoting this local activism, the notion of empowerment immediately becomes questionable. My paper takes a critical perspective on the issue questioning whether to the participants in the community building projects are not the unwitting facilitators of the neo-liberal goals of the State. Taking the case of one Japanese village community as my empirical ground, the key question I pose is: " Who actually are the motivated participants in a state-sponsored community-building project in a specific village? " To answer this question, I study the historically constituted and therefore locally specific structure of social hierarchy in a locality, i.e. the locality's socio-culture. Concretely, I demonstrate, on the one hand, that the limits on participation in the project are, in fact, socio-culturally structured at the village level. On the other hand, the inhabitants of the village experience and understand the given structured social reality that they live in as fair and reasonable. Applying a theoretical framework suggested by Pierre Bourdieu, I approach the underlying mechanism of the observed social reality in the everyday life of local inhabitants found in the relationship between human agency and social institutions. My study concludes that the neo-liberalization of the governing discourse at the state level advances at the local level while simultaneously perpetuating the structure of social inequality that it is meant to reduce. By presenting the highly locally specific nature, yet highly politically significant structure, of rural communities, my study contributes to the elucidation of a newly emerging, and possibly encompassing, aspect of the complexity and diversity of rural life in Japan.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="2bf114344408b016121ffc9233dd36b1" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":52714497,"asset_id":32531713,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/52714497/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="32531713"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="32531713"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32531713;

However, new approaches to the topic have not yet been sufficiently developed. The term precariat indicates the group of people whose life situation is precarious because of their unstable working contracts and conditions. The term is strongly associated with non-regular workers, not only because of their lack of a sense of security regarding their lives and their employment, but also because of the dramatic increase in their numbers in recent years. The increase is particularly noticeable in contemporary Japan. Despite their elusiveness, the precariat has been considered as a homogeneous group in a social stratification study or a social class study. In this paper, I argue that the existing framework cannot adequately grasp the heterogeneous characteristics of non-regular workers; instead, I suggest that it is rather a combination of different milieux, i.e. social spaces of differences. Using a framework derived from Bourdieu's concepts of capital and milieu, I endeavor to identify significant factors to enable us to make a distinction between skilled and non-skilled non-regular workers in the Japanese context. This paper therefore determines significant changes in the socio-cultural characteristics of the new precariat based upon Japanese data.

In Chapter 2, I apply this consideration to observe the legally framed nature of social inequality in the neo-liberal capitalist societies at a theoretical level. The result was to find the current egalitarian principles -Fair Equality of Opportunity (FEO) and their practice, hand in hand with meritocracy, functions as a translator of the existing structures of social hierarchy at birth -socio-culture, into politically justifiable socio-economic disparities between individuals over time. In the following Chapter 3, I approach the underlying mechanism of this persisting social inequality by using the theoretical framework of symbolic violence proposed by Pierre Bourdieu. His theoretical framework suggests that the existence of social inequality is justified because individual socio-economic positions are misrecognised as being the direct results of individual achievements via meritocracy. Widespread belief in fair social competition can thus contribute to concealing existing structures of social hierarchy behind the logic of equality and freedom. In order to test the explanatory power of this theoretical framework, I ask a research question: Is a concept of life as being the direct result of personal achievements internalised and acted upon by individuals to perpetuate the existing structure of social inequality in the society in which they live?</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="ac42483c3121b331b0917811402240cf" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":52714621,"asset_id":32531844,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/52714621/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="32531844"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="32531844"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 32531844;

A special attention is given to economic disparity, subjective evaluations of inequality, social stratification, social class, regional inequality and gender inequality. It traces paradigm shifts as well as the accumulated insights in a given field of study. What becomes particularly apparent is the absence of meaningful conversation between the field of social stratification and the field of social class study. On the basis of their agreement on substantial conceptualisation of class, the contestation at an ideological level emerged. This prevented the Japanese field of social inequality study from developing an overarching theoretical framework, which enables us to draw a comprehensive picture of unequal social realities in Japan. In support of recent calls for revaluation of class theory on the basis of analytical turn, I conclude this chapter by emphasising the benefit of situating Japan in the context of global inequality.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="5ae359495c4408694b422afb614029ec" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":87772966,"asset_id":81885425,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/87772966/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="81885425"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="81885425"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 81885425;

It is certain that stakeholders at various levels often understand 'regionally unique characteristics' at face value, in a purely economic sense. Accordingly, various projects of regional vitalisation often take the shape of a cultural re-branding of local products and/or spaces, with a goal to promoting tourism as well as enhancing domestic relocation. On the other hand, more and more investigations from the field of rural studies emphasise the significance of taking seriously the socio-historical context found in a locality, in order to bring the local empowerment and sustainable development that the central government envisages, to fruition. However, an overarching analytical framework is not yet established. Against this background, I draw attention to the potential of the sociological concept of socio-culture that indicates historically constituted, and therefore locally specific, structures of social hierarchy. This concept makes it possible to grasp how local inhabitants, within the regionally unique socio-historical contexts in which they live, adopt the top-down policy of the state differently. In this sense, I talk about the revitalisation of socio-culture. Taking this idea as my point of departure, I refer to the epistemological and methodological implications for data collection that this concept entails, and conclude by highlighting the crucial blind spot embedded in the snowballing method, a method that is widely used to obtain access to reliable informants.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="05963f75b48a6aacae17e46d4d54d35e" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":54431911,"asset_id":34566426,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/54431911/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="34566426"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="34566426"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34566426;

The seminar, at first, introduce students the intellectual history and the relevant theoretical approaches of Japanese studies. Then, it moves on to tackle various social challenges and social realities of the social weak. The societal challenges planned to be covered in the seminar are: 1. society with widening economic disparity 2. Reproduction of inequality in meritocratic society 3. censorship and Information society 4. precarity in Neo-liberal economy 5. rural decline in neo-liberal politics 6. Aging society and lowering birthrate 7. neo-liberal mobilization of civil society 8. the rise of nationalism The seminar has been initially planned and addressed to Master's student of PGO program, but it is also open for Bachelor's students from Japanese study department. Each session will combine a short lecture and discussion among students on the topic. In order to have a lively discussion, all the readings are mandatory. In the end of the seminar, students are expected to give an oral presentation. The seminar is provided by Dr. Kie Sanada. She is awarded her Ph.D. in Global and Area studies in 2017 from Humboldt University, Berlin. Global and Area studies is a branch of sociology, which aims at studying global challenges on the basis of observation of social phenomena as it is experienced at the locality. Among all the global challenges, her particular focus is on perpetuation of social inequality in Japan.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="e376da155e7a0162501d4b62c684d841" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":87773643,"asset_id":81886447,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/87773643/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="81886447"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="81886447"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 81886447;
