The purpose of this study is to explore the process of internalization of stigma among offenders' families in Japan, focusing specifically on the feelings of shame. To understand the emotional aspects of offenders' families, interviews were conducted with seven family members and the data were analyzed based on the notion of “web of shame,” a theoretical framework constructed by Rachel Condry. Research to date has given insufficient attention to the family members of minor offenders. To fill this gap in the literature, the present study specifically focuses on the family members of minor offenders in Japan and seeks to explore how they experience and internalize stigma.
Inter alia, the study found that the intensity of shame among family members was influenced by their status within society prior to the crime, rather than the seriousness of the crime committed by their kin. As family members interacted with the police and other actors in the criminal justice system, they began to recognize the gaze of others on them as “families of offenders,” leading them to adjust to the changing circumstances in their lives. This study indicates that the degree to which family members experience shame and internalized stigma is influenced by their social status and experiences prior to the crime being committed.

Condryの研究は, 重大な罪を犯した人の家族らに限定し, その恥の感情を類型化することにとどまっている. これに対して本稿では, 軽微な犯罪も分析の対象に含め, いかにして恥を感じるのかをプロセス的に捉えることを試みた.
分析の結果, 犯罪者を家族にもつ人びとが抱く恥の感情は, 他の家族成員の犯した罪の大小に接近するよりもむしろ, 事件前後においての社会における自己の位置づけの落差を認識することによって生起されていたことが明らかになった. 家族らは刑事司法システムにおける警察などとの相互行為のなかで「犯罪者の家族」としてのまなざしを認識しながら, 置かれている状況の変化を自覚していくことになっていた. 以上の分析によって, 犯罪者を家族にもつ人びとの恥の感情は, スティグマをもたない時期の社会的経験によって影響を受けるという示唆が得られた.
