초록

This ethnographic study examines the narratives and practices of villagers in M village, one of the very small depopulated villages in Japan, located on the hill. Due to the advancing age of the villagers, they can no longer sustain their communal farming practices. Through observations and interviews, this study examines 1) the ways in which the villagers evaluate their changing life conditions; and 2) the ways the villagers have been attempting to cope with the current situation. The villagers cannot agree on the way of reshaping the agriculture, mainly because their evaluations of the current situation are so shifting and unstable that their attempts at reconstructing their farming practises to suit the current conditions do not conform to any single normative basis. As a result, the villagers can only put emphasis on “trials and errors,” the practice in order to find out what is worth pursuing.

Abstract

This ethnographic study examines the narratives and practices of villagers in M village, one of the very small depopulated villages in Japan, located on the hill. Due to the advancing age of the villagers, they can no longer sustain their communal farming practices. Through observations and interviews, this study examines 1) the ways in which the villagers evaluate their changing life conditions; and 2) the ways the villagers have been attempting to cope with the current situation. The villagers cannot agree on the way of reshaping the agriculture, mainly because their evaluations of the current situation are so shifting and unstable that their attempts at reconstructing their farming practises to suit the current conditions do not conform to any single normative basis. As a result, the villagers can only put emphasis on “trials and errors,” the practice in order to find out what is worth pursuing.
