In utilizing the reed, people living in this district need to be concerned with the reed through social organization called “Keiyakuko”. They have been considerably regulated by the common norms of Keiyakuko. Their collective way of being concerned with the reed had firmness which made them insist on their right strongly on one hand and flexibility which made their consensus building possible, on the other hand.

This article considered what kind of sustainability. Today’s management of the resources of the region can have by understanding the change of nature and the system of society and variation of both.
