In my Master's research, I evaluated the Japanese Kendō practice as a Japaneseness device, i.e., something that sought to "make Japanese". In this manufacturing process, Kendō focused on three connected planes: the 'Spirit' [Ki], the Sword and the Body. While development of the foregoing, this doctoral thesis sought to analyze data from life stories of Kendō practitioners and Documents about the notion of Ki – Life Force, Vital Energy – through an extensive ethnographic research in Brazil and Japan. The notion of Ki introduced itself as an important way to understanding the Japanese Culture itself, in a close relationship with an idiosyncratic notion of Love - Ai. The result was a theoretical and analytical potentiality to understand the Japanese Kinship and Japanese-and-Non-Japanese’s Family Studies, including cultural recognition processes whose assessment was made by anthropological and comparative perspectives
