Özet (Çeviri)
An aging society and a stable economy have forced Japan to receive more immigrants and to open its doors to the world, in contrast to the nation's historical distancing away from internationalization and immigration (Kondo 2002, 415). This distancing peaked during the Edo period (1603–1868), because the country closed its doors to the world (Hanley 1973, 30). Although the country is struggling with a labor shortage in almost all sectors, the main target of its immigration policy has always been highly-skilled and low-skilled labor rather than unskilled ones (Oishi 2012, 1080). Historically, the country has tried many different ways to attract more qualified immigrants (Oishi 2014, 421). In the late 20th century, the country decided to increase the reputation of its universities and research institutions with research parks and science cities (Bloom and Asano 1981, 1240), which could be useful tools to enhance technology and knowledge transfer. In this context, Tsukuba Science City was created and promoted by the Japanese central government (Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transportation, and Tourism 2020a). On the other hand, a nation's appeal to immigrants is a complicated phenomenon that involves many different criteria that a prospective immigrant should consider before deciding to immigrate to another country (Schain 1990, 254). Of course, physical and material amendments are significant, but there are also more complex issues that are more abstract (Démurger 2015). Aside from legislation, immigration is a very sensitive phenomenon that touches people (Battistella and Conaco 1998, 220–221). As this dissertation argues, Japan is using science cities to attract more qualified, highly-skilled immigrants by facilitating them with a scientific environment. However, is it enough to attract international highly-skilled researchers with only physical infrastructure? What iii other factors can be effective in swaying people's decisions to immigrate? What do international immigrants really experience? As the decision of immigration is personal, the person should also be satisfied with the necessary social and cultural adaptations needed to immigrate and stay in a host country for many years. In this context, the phenomenological method of social (cultural) anthropology provides clear perspectives to look into the phenomena comprehensively. This research uncovers unheard voices of highly-skilled immigrants in Tsukuba Science City (Japan), which will help to understand the experiences of academic immigrants from the immigrants' views centered on a phenomenological perspective of social (cultural) anthropology. Only then, the role of highly-skilled immigrants in generating a Japanese science city could be truly understood.
