This is a study on the modern Japanese festival. About 5 years ago, the author published a book named "Sociology of City Festival." In the book, he picked up the famous traditional dance, Awa-Odori which was originally a local dance in Tokushima-prefecture, and he discribed its transfering processes to the very far and large city, Tokyo. And then, he concluded that the Tokyo Awa-odori became one of typical models of modern Japanese city festivals. The author thinks that Awa-Odori has some special key characters comparing with the other Japanese traditional dances. The former is not only for the people who live in closed narrow areas (such as the old traditional city festivals), but also for all of the persons who are interested in with it. It can change themselves into various styles (Dancing styles, Instruments, Merodies, etc.) following the changes of ages. And it can offer dancing plesures for every persons (old and young, men and women, expert and beginner, etc.). So it looks mostly nice with the modern isolated and separated city people. And now, Tokyo Awa-Odori has begun to spread to many cities. It has now totally about 100 fellow groups in varios cities in Eastern Japan. And they are making various styles of networks each other. (Radial connection, mutual network, father-son-grandson relations, satelite style, etc.) The author is not so sure that such a collective action will directly connect to the future or not. But perhaps it may be true that it is reflecting one of modern life and culture in Japan.
