[191]-200) and index.Global migration and sojourner presence -- The study and conceptualisation of the sojourner -- Japanese people overseas: an Australian case-study -- A profile of Japanese residency in major cities -- Japanese schools among Japanese ethnic organisations -- The distinctive features of sojourners and their communities.The important theoretical dimension of this book is the refinement of the concept of the sojourner to take into account the migrants’ settlement phases. Although the sociological meaning of the sojourner vis-à-vis settler has not been sufficiently discussed in the social scientific area, the growing significance of sojourning foreigners should not be ignored. Part of the book illustates the characteristic patterns of population movements from Japan to Australia by analysing statistical data. The outcome from the extensive research, including intensive fieldwork conducted in Melbourne, portrays the distinctiveness of the Japanese community living there. This work will contribute to sociology of migration and cultural exchange programme and multi-national firm that seeks to better understand the unavoidable transformation relating to various patterns of international migration and the emergence of new types of urban ethnicity.Social sciences in Asia ;v. 10.JapaneseAustraliaSocial life and customsImmigrantsAustraliaAustraliaEthnic relationsAustraliaEmigration and immigrationJapanEmigration and immigrationElectronic books.JapaneseSocial life and customs.Immigrants305.895/6094Mizukami Tetsuo972406MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450610003321The sojourner community2211142UNINA
