Cultural adjustment : an exploratory case study of the Japanese Exchange Teaching programme and its implication for social work practice

Callender, Shauna January 2003 (has links)
Culture shock and reverse culture shock are profoundly personal experiences affecting individuals in a multitude of diverse ways. They happen inside each person who encounters unfamiliar events and unexpected situations. For people who work abroad (sojourners), cultural adjustment is a significant time in their lives. Following the examination of cultural adjustment, a review of literature is explored, highlighting sojourners' acculturation and coping strategies. A case study of the JET (Japanese Exchange Teaching) Programme is presented through an analysis of public documents and interviews with JET staff and former sojourners. Findings report that JET sojourners experience adjustment difficulties with reverse culture shock and that there exists an unavailability of resources providing support. Limitations of the study are highlighted; areas of weakness were found in the lack of literature addressing the needs and experiences of sojourners, particularly JETs. Recommendations and suggestions for future research in the field of social work are made.

Foi adotada a perspectiva da expectativa temporal em processos migratórios (ROBERTS,1995) para melhor compreender a tendência de permanência de brasileiros no Japão. Dessa forma priorizam-se as análises referentes às políticas de controle migratórias do Japão, bem como às configuração recentes das redes sociais de brasileiros e à formação familiar no destino, como fatores que influenciariam a alteração da expectativa temporal. Questões sobre a crise econômica internacional de 2008 também são tratadas na pesquisa. A metodologia abarca o uso de dados secundários, como as estatísticas oficiais do governo japonês sobre a migração e o registro de estrangeiros no país, bem como a análise de dados primários com os resultados de pesquisa de campo realizada no Japão / Abstract: This work aims to analyze the temporality of brazilians' migration process in Japan in recent years. The perspective of temporal expectation in migratory processes (ROBERTS,1995) was adopted to better comprehend the tendency of brazilians permanence in Japan. This way, the analysis of Japan's migratory control policies, as well as recent brazilian social networks' configurations and the family formation in the destination, are prioritized as influencing factors on the alteration of temporal expectation. Questions regarding 2008's international economic crisis are also addressed in the research.

O fenômeno dekassegui tem como característica a burocratização do fluxo migratório e a migração seletiva decorrente da ancestralidade nipônica destes sujeitos. Esta particularidade se reflete em garantia de algumas condições razoáveis de subsistência, não obstante, não se traduz em relações de trabalho estáveis, incorrendo em uma inserção em nichos de trabalho reservados aos imigrantes desqualificados. Paralelamente, desde a década de 1990, as relações e condições de trabalho dos japoneses tendem a expansão da informalidade, aumento do turnover, rebaixamento salarial, part time job, entre outras condições laborais degradadas antes pouco expressivas. Foi realizada uma pesquisa de campo com dekasseguis retornados pós-crise econômica de 2008 para melhor compreensão do impacto da crise em suas vidas. À luz destas considerações, algumas questões que norteiam pesquisa são: a relação do dekassegui com a classe trabalhadora japonesa, a diferença étnica como fator diferenciador e a classe social como elemento que os assemelha / Abstract: This research sought to understand the specificity of the place that immigrant labor Dekassegui occupies in Japan class society. Dekassegui phenomenon is characterized by the bureaucratization of the migration and selective migration resulting from Japanese ancestry. This peculiarity is reflected in reasonable conditions of subsistence, however, this peculiarity does not deprive them of into informal jobs and labor insertion in unskilled immigrant niches. Meanwhile, since the 1990s, the labor relationships and conditions of the Japanese working class tend to expansion of informality, increased turnover, lower wages, part time job, and other employment conditions not very evident over the past few decades. A field research was carried out with dekasseguis returned after 2008 economic crisis to better understand the impact of the crisis in their lives. Through these considerations, some questions that guide this dissertation are: the relationship between Dekassegui and the Japanese working class, ethnic difference as a differentiating factor and social class as an element that resembles / Mestrado / Sociologia / Mestra em Sociologia
