Description

Most previous studies on ie have conceptualized ie as the model of pre-modern feudal family under the impacts of pre-war political system. With this narrow difinition, the various meanings of ie held by people in those times have been neglected. The objective of this paper is to describe the positive meaning of ie in terms of ie founders or successors. Using the data from family laws of merchant houses in the Edo or the Meiji era, we found that they maintained the ambitions to found or sustain their own ie throughout many generations and tried to realize their ambitions in various ways. The results of this research suggest that these positive intention must be understood as a value held among people in those times not as consequences of a feudal political system.
