<p>This study discusses the social contribution of the research field, “Taigu-Communication” (TC), mainly from the Japanese language education perspective. Chapter 2 describes TC, while Chapter 3 discusses how focusing on communication leads to social contribution. TC allows us to pursue relationships between individuals and society by analyzing address terms using discourse analysis. Chapter 4 describes how, in TC research, focusing on learners’ narratives and approaching TC from past experiences and values can lead to mutual respect and self-expression among people. Chapter 5 discusses practical examples of TC education on speech styles that focus on learners’ assumptions. It shows that questioning one’s assumptions, learning that each person’s assumptions are different, having tolerance and respect for others, and developing the ability to think of solutions to overcome friction can lead to a better society. Lastly, Chapter 6 discusses how people are connected, what self-expression and understanding based on mutual respect means, and how the premise, context, consciousness, content, and communicative subject are linked and connected to the social contribution of TC research.</p>
