SUMMARIES

Ludwig LAHER, '"We do not belong in this world": A life history of three generations of Sinti women from Austria, 1923-2010.' Translated by Martin Kaneko.

This paper recounts the life stories of three Austrian women from the Sinti ethnic minority. Rosa Winter, a peddler, survived the Nazi concentration camps to continue her traditional occupation after World War II. Her daughter Gitta was born just after the war and founded a movement demanding human rights for the Sinti people. Gitta's daughter Nicole Martl was born in the late 1970s and became a university student. All three suffered outrageous discrimination but managed to maintain their traditional Sinti identity and values.

Martin KANEKO, '"A lonely island in a distant sea"? Roma human rights infringements within the European Union and the position of Japan.'

In August 2010 the government of France started systematically deporting Roma people, mostly from Romania and Bulgaria, back to their countries of origin. This was a flagrant violation of the European Convention on Human Rights, which forbids mass expulsions of foreigners, and the EU constitution, which safeguards freedom of movement within the EU. (Both Romania and Bulgaria joined the EU in 2007.) By the end of September over 8,000 Roma people had been deported. This paper offers a critical account of mass media reporting on this egregious violation of human rights in Japan and other countries, as well as describing the inadequate response of the European Commission.

MIZUNO Ashura, 'The illegal occupation of land behind Itami airport: Japan-resident Koreans and Kamagasaki.'

After a showing of the film Nakamura no Iyagi (Nakamura's Story) in Osaka there was a lively discussion about the 'hanba villages' that sprang up around Osaka in the early postwar period, and the role of ethnic Koreans in the day laboring movement. Hanba villages were clusters of jerrybuilt workmen's dormitories, and this was a rare opportunity to hear some detailed accounts of the "illegal occupation" of land by Korean workers on land adjacent to construction sites commandeered by the postwar government. The discussion also covered a variety of barrack districts that were illegally thrown up by non-Korean groups.

Jeong Sil MOON, 'The expanding service sector and women workers: on working conditions in hot spring resort districts.'

In recent years the increasing flexibility and insecurity of the Japanese labor market has brought an expansion of the service sector. This has been seen at the top end of the sector, in financial services, insurance, real estate and management, and also in labor-intensive services at the bottom end. For people here, the pattern of fixed-term part-time contracts followed by dismissal has become thoroughly institutionalized, leading to an ossified labor market with an unbridgeable gap between regular and irregular workers. This paper shows how women doing menial work in hot spring resort districts have their career options dictated by personal factors such as class origin, low level of education, and experience of divorce.

MATSUZAWA Tessei, 'Day laborers and labor markets since the defeat of the Japanese empire.'

After Japan's defeat in World War II, the work of supplying labor to the allied occupation authorities and transporting soldiers, weapons, supplies etc. was handled by bureaucratic bodies that were essentially holdovers from the wartime regime, albeit with superficial changes of name. They were centered on the old Ministry of the Interior, reconstituted after the war in ministries of transportation, labor etc., and on the Japan National Railways, which had been an organ of the Ministry of the Interior. In Tokyo the actual work was done by wandering tramps around Ueno, people made homeless by the war, returning soldiers etc. They would gather to seek employment as day laborers in tamariba, (pools of labor) near stations, ports and factories. In time the authorities moved them to more formal recruitment zones which became the 'yoseba' we know today, often combined with flophouse districts (doya-gai) offering low-rent accommodation. By the end of the 1950s, there were yoseba to be found in every major Japanese city.
