The Burakumin Identity in Relation to the Local Community and the Dominant Society.
Original language description
The Burakumin, a group of socially marginalized people in Japan, has been traditionally considered impure by the majority of Japanese society. In order not to spread the impurity, its members have been geographically and socially restricted, living in communities on the edges of cities, limited in social interactions, marriages and job opportunities. The identity of the Burakumin has always been constructed through the dominant society as well as through their own local communities, although the character of this link has been ambiguous. Our article discusses this ambivalence as it evolves through time, with a particular focus on how the Burakumin sense of identity makes its holders lean toward incorporation into the community at large, and the factors that encourage them to favour separation or incorporation. In the article, we also work with Burakumin identity as formed by the process of self- identification and outer categorisation.
