抄録	Conservative movements are intensifying advertisement in fierce conflict with progressive social movements in the contemporary Japanese society. In particular, the Japanese Society for History Textbook Reform has taken action in terms of revisionism since late 1990s. Conservative groups have held protest movements against gender equality since early 2000, which resulted in drastic impact on the government. These conservative movements have received attention as new grass-roots conservative movements. Oguma and Ueno (2003) suggested that the contemporary conservatives are similar to civil movements by analyzing the Japanese Society for History Textbook Reform. However, field research studies of these movements, especially the protest movements against gender equality have not followed after Oguma and Ueno. It is still an open question how the grass-roots conservative movements against gender equality gain support from people in grass-roots. In this paper, I aimed to develop discussion of the grass-roots conservative movements and to show what makes people get involved in the movements against gender equality. From the aspect of gender, I analyzed a case of a civil association against gender equality in local city in Japan. Through the analysis and discussion, I showed that the conservative civil association mobilizes human resources from various conservative and religious association to extend their social and political influence and to campaign for increasing public awareness. Moreover, I found that the conservative group appeals the primitive consciousness of female participants by focusing on the topic of “family.”
