大都市近郊混住地域における地域社会形成に関する研究 : 横浜市郊外地域を事例対象地として

Abstract

In urban fringe areas living environment problems arise from rural-urban mixture, and it is important for the area residents, the long-term residents and the more recent arrivals, to have common concepts regarding the problems. The analysis resulted in the following conclusion : "The long-term residents and the more recent arrivals have differing concepts and expectations regarding the role and function of local public organizations, independently-run community organizations and neighborhood groups ; "The mixture of the long-term and newer residents in the same neighborhood areas effectively promotes better understanding and greater resolution of problems arising between the two groups ; and "Certain community activities are effective in promoting a greater mutual understanding between the two groups, especially concerning their differing values and beliefs.
