Anthropological research on the adaptive nature of cultural and ritual practices in the context of disaster.
研究概要
My research interest is in cultural anthropology, material culture and ritual studies, more specifically the adaptive nature of cultural and ritual practices. My research focuses on the preservation and transmission of cultural practices, notably living heritage, and their meaning and effect on the community, in the context of disaster and disaster recovery. I am currently focusing on the transmission of disaster memory through material culture: the potential role and effects of disaster-related objects (monuments, memorials, remains, etc.) in maintaining the memory of past disasters, in disaster awareness and in the shaping of local risk cultures.
