Abstract

Residential research is problem-solving research that considers the actual circumstances of a local area; moreover, the researcher is not only based in the science community but is also a responsible member of that local community. This paper examines the potential of using residential research as a specific methodology. The author participated in a project to reintroduce the Oriental White Stork (Ciconia boyciana) to the Toyooka area, in Hyogo Prefecture. The author developed a research method through being questioned by various people in the field. The following six points were derived as part of the methodological features of residential research: 1) the research results are evaluated by the society concerned; 2) the researcher moves between multiple positions; 3) there is a recursive nature to being a concerned party; 4) it includes a circulative method; 5) it is sympathetic; and 6) it is an asymptotic approach
