The Japanese term kokusaikekkon (intermarriage) refers to a marriage between persons of different nationalities. Even in statistics compiled by government agencies, intermarriage includes marriages between a Japanese person and a non-Japanese person who was born and educated in Japan. In the American context, Merton (1941) defines intermarriage as marriage between persons deriving from those different in-groups and out-groups other than the family which are culturally conceived as relevant to the choice of a spouse. In other words, for Merton, intermarriage comprises a number of subcategories, including interracial marriage, interethnic marriage, interfaith marriage, and intercultural marriage.KeywordsJapanese WomanJapanese CultureForeign WomanNational Police AgencyAssimilation PolicyThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
