Research Abstract |
Our research result contains five papers. The following is the summary of each paper. "Periodization of Japan's Modern City History with Osaka as its model" (A. Shibamura) nominates five features as the indexes to measuring the transformation of a city. They are (1) city's economy (2) city's infrastructure (3) city's regional structure (4) city's life and consciousness (5) city's administration and political system. Applying these indexes, the paper concludes the modern-day Osaka has five periods and the 1920s and 30s were major transformative periods. "Central management function and population of cities in the Pre-war period" 'S. Itoh) explains the disparity of the rates of population increase between large cities and other cities had been extended under the dual structure of Japanese economy in the inter-war period. And the paper concludes this tendency was caused by the strength of the central management function or agglomeration economy of large cities after the rapid population urb

anization in the First World War period. "Houses in Tokyo at 1930" (K. Imai) explains the housing conditions of about 110 thousands houses in Tokyo at 1930. And the paper concludes the rate of people engaged in commerce determined the differences of the house rent and the land rent between 15 Wards of the city. "The Annexation Policy of the German Cities. 1871-1930 : A Statustucal Survey" (S. Baba) surveys the annexation policy of the German cities from 1871 to 1930. A common reason for the annexation policy was the need for the outward expansion because of the urban policy to resolve the various urban problems. And the annexation was an important prerequisite for the town planning of the central city. The paper also points out that the annexation related closely with the interest of the state besides that of the communities concerned as it was accompnied by the alteration of the administrative division, and after the World War I the state (Land) took the leadership in the process of annexation. "The food policy in Germany in the first half of the First World War period" (S. Kaku) points that the food policy was ad-hoc as the war was expected to be brief. Its object was widened form grain to fish, live-stock products and potatoes, and its priority moved from the price control to the supply control. The paper also explains the food policy caused the change in the inter-governmental relationship between Reich, Land and Geminde. Less
