UCHIKOSHI, Masayuki

  

   

    Position

  

        Researcher of Institute on Social Theory and Dynamics

      Doctoral Course of Graduate School, Metropolitan Tokyo University

  

    Speciality

  

        Sociology of Motorcycle Gang

  

    Research Theme

  

        I made fieldwork about a motorcycle gang in Hiroshima and analyzed

      the conflict between the social and political control over them and

      their resistance to it for the construction of a modern society’s

      theory in the Master's course of graduate school, Hiroshima Kokusai

      Gakuin University. I want to make the same fieldwork again in Tokyo

      region and to refine the power theory which I could not develop

      sufficiently in the Master’s course. And I want to study on the

      youth’s identity and the relationship between the youth’s growth and

      community.
