Outline of Final Research Achievements |
First, I searched for documents and materials in several prefectures' archives and secondhand bookseller. These are official documents on staff hiring in Japanese local governments before the enforcement of the Local Public Service Act, staff lists and some essays that allow us to understand the actual work of staff then. Second, using these materials, I examined the actual conditions of staff recruitment and staffing at that time. Simultaneously, conducted an interview survey on present personnel affairs and the relationship between politicians and staff in the local government. I also examined the possibility of historical changes in staff personnel affairs. Thirdly, I examined the formation process of the “Senko (selection)” recruitment system. I researched from a historical perspective about the reason why staff recruitment systems other than competitive exams were enacted with the background of it. And I wrote some paper and made some presentation about this research.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
まず学術的意義としては、先行研究の乏しい自治体職員採用制度の形成過程とその実態に関する資料の発掘とその分析を通じて、「選考」など多様な採用制度の形成過程、自治体人事と自治体政治との関係構造、当時の職員採用状況が採用制度の設計に与えた影響などについて解明を行った点が挙げられる。また、社会的意義としては、上記の研究・分析を踏まえ、現在議論になりつつある競争試験以外の多様な職員採用制度の可能性について、一定の考察を行った点が挙げられる。とりわけ、歴史的な分析と並行して現在の実態調査も行ったことで、今後の制度改革に応用可能な基礎研究として、学術的・社会的に重要な意義を持つと考えられる。
