開催趣旨

In an age of globalization, social changes and urbanization in African societies are more and more become obvious, not only for researchers but for ordinary people in each society.  Though the difficulty of capturing the whole picture of these drastic changes in a single method, neither sociology, anthropology, human geography nor history, we can have cross cutting discussion on the platform of area studies.  In this workshop, we sat the key concepts as mobility, hybridity and co-existence, we will discuss on this changes on empirical basis analysis and dairy experience among the people.  

Mobility and hybridity are the characteristics of modernity, and also more significant keys of construing semantic changes in this age.  In Eastern and Southern Africa, focused area of this workshop, for example, various goods, people and information coming and going between a capital city like Nairobi and each rural areas, and it makes myriad new situation and practices of the people.  On the other hand, development schemes under “global issues”, such as climate change, natural resource management, migration, urbanization and poverty etc got effect and most of public activities will be explained along those contexts by the people themselves.  
 
This workshop is composed by three sessions; 
Session 1: Restructuring Urban Spaces and Places
Session 2: Development Programme, Nation-State and the People
Session 3: View Points from Daily Life of the People
 
About ten researchers from Japan and Eastern and Southern Africa will present their on-going studies, we shall capture the characteristics of post-globalism urban and rural situation from the cases of multi-cited field researches in Eastern and Southern Africa.
