Appropriation of Tokyo through the Spatial Practices of Migrant Commonalities

identifier:oai:t2r2.star.titech.ac.jp:50609003

Commonalities, which contain collective knowledge and recursive behaviours that are integral to a person yet shareable, become tangible when the physical setting is appropriated by people practicing them. As a global city, Tokyo attracts migrants with differing commonalities, who embed hybridized spatialities in the urban sphere as they share practices from their home-countries in their new locations.The nature of the practices ranges from closed, such as religious, to completely open, like pop-cultural. Thus, mosques; South-Asian food and prayer facilities; and a Korean pop-cultural street were selected as case studies in Tokyo to demonstrate this gradient.The aim of this thesis is to clarify the changes in identities, conflicts and adaptations that occur when spatial practices of migrant commonalities negotiate a new urban physical setting.
