抄録

Making use of a case study of "Goshu-Ondo," the performance of singing and dancing, this article analyzes the process by which local culture is reorganized. Recently, the local government of the Toyosato Township in Shiga Prefecture has taken the initiative to promote, through financial subsidies, the Goshu-Ondo as a tourist attraction. Defining the association that is funded to perform Goshu-Ondo as a tourist attraction as "bearers" who act as a liaison, or as a "mediator" with the local government. I will show how the bearers can help to maintain a sustainable local culture.<br>　I will show that an ambivalence emerges when the mediator is burdened with two different aspects of Goshu-Ondo. Furthermore, the bearers can change the meaning of Goshu-Ondo by making use of their more ambivalent role as mediators. Thus, the mediator can be seen as a nodal point for taking in the financial support of the local government and by performing local culture as a tourist attraction, without destroying the diversity of this traditional form.<br>　Generally research has taken two approaches when examining the transformation of local culture. In the first, the intrusion of tourism is held responsible for the destruction of local culture and the bearers, therefore, play an active role in the protection of local culture. Alternatively, in the second approach, tourism is thought to help rekindle an interest in local culture. Here, the bearers play an active role in transforming local culture. However, these approaches fail to account for the diversity of the bearers with regard to the various positions they hold. In this case study I will propose a new process of reorganization whereby we can transform and protect local culture based on a reinterpretation of bearers through their role as mediators as well.
