論文PapersThe purpose of this paper is discussing about the meaning which Fūdo theory rooted in local logic has in the time of global environment problems. Fūdo theory includes an indivisible concept, a view of the world and spatial imaginative power. Firstly, the structure of Fūdo theory is found out through the reflection to social theory of risk and environmental ethics. Secondary, the cosmology as the origin of Fūdo theory is discussed. Complementary understanding of two approaches, ontological and geographical approach, which understand Fūdo is explored through understanding genealogy of Fūdo theory. Finally, the land of Japan is discussed as space which consists of two axes. Economy has developed in accordance with the east-and-west axis which connects colonies, and the native faith has developed in accordance with the north-and-south axis which connects sea to mountain. It can be said that the center of the traditional community was located in the place where both axes cross. However, the life adapted to the conditions of Fūdo has been lost by development of the country in the postwar period. By referring to such a view of the world that has been obliged to the change, it becomes the spatial imaginative power towards in the future.
