Current research and aspirations for the GCOE program:
I have conducted theoretical and historical research on the formation and transformation of the modern family, as well as comparative studies on the traditional family in Asia and Europe, using the methods of historical demography. In the 2000s, I began to focus on a comparative sociological analysis of the changes surrounding family and gender in contemporary Asia.
My comparative studies on Asian families made me deeply aware of the fact that it is no longer possible to separate family studies from debates on the welfare state and international migration. For this reason, I hope the GCOE program will work as a wider environment where it is possible to combine all the several sociological fields, and promote a general reconstruction of family studies.
I also believe it is important to gather and translate the existing literature on the intimate sphere and on family studies in Asian regions, so that we can produce the intellectual common foundations for future research on Asian societies.
