Research Abstract |
I examained the establishment process of access right to the English countryside through paper review and field survey. I also examined the similar issues in Japan : coordination problem between fishing right and the right of access to the coastal areas in Inland Sea ; relation of traditional common right and recreational right in Aso region. (1) The establishing process of the public right of access to the countryside can be summarized as a opening process of private land into public open spaces. In this study I examined the historical process where the English countryside has been opened to the public at large. Attention should be paid on a fact that persistent social movements have been checking the land ownership from the public point of view. In particular Open Spaces Society and Ramblers' Association has greatly contributed. Therefore the focus was placed on contributions of both organizations (2) In Japan disputes over the right of access to coastal areas had the similar characteristics with access issues in England. However in Japan, access right to coastal areas has not been established yet. When examining the access issues in Japan, we should examine the characterisetics of land ownership and people's view on the nature. (3) In Aso regions people tries to use commons more efficiently by introducing recreational use. It is required to appropriately coordinate land ownership, common right and public access right.
