Abstract

Those involved in archival issues in Japan have repeated the question : "why are not archives recognized and rooted in our Japanese society?" However, it is doubtful whether they discuss the question appropriately. In other words, it is doubtful whether they understand the social background and the contributing factors of the question appropriately and advocate the practical solutions. Based on these issues, this article discusses the direction of archival activities from the perspectives of outsourcing and volunteers based on the author's archives, comparing archives as a service institution with a kind of "shop." Then this article discusses desirable perspectives and directions of archives in Japan by considering the contributing factors of the initial question from the characteristics and history of Japanese society.
