Research Abstract |
This research project investigates the parts of the provincial cities in the urbanization and industrialization of modern Japan. Primary data of the project are the documents about Yasukawa Keiichiro, owned by Kitakyushu Museum of Natural History & Human History. By making full use of Yasukawa documents, we expect not only to reveal the business activity of Yasukawa zaibatsu which is regarded as a representative provincial zaibatsu, but also to throw light on activities of actors, for example, enterprises, parties, local goverments, social movements, who played parts in urbanization of modern Japan. Inspecting their activities and mutual relationship is supposed to shed new light on the studies of provincial urbanization in modern Japan. Yasukawa documents consist of his diaries, documents of corporate management, letters, and drafts. By analizing them, we can make many subjects clear. Analysis of books points out that Yasukawa who gained porfits by coal boom in Sino-Japanese War era invested in expansion of mining areas and rail-way stocks, and so he could carry out business diversification. Inspection of diaries, letters and drafts with another documents, for example Matono Hansuke documents, Nagae Junichi documents, and newspapaers, we have revealed that Yasukawa campaigned for general election in Fukuoka city Where he could gain support both from the Gen'yousha and the Seiyukai. Yasukawa had personal relationship in central political world, and intended to make the third force which could check both the Rikken-doshikai and the Seiyukai in the Okuma Cabinet era, with the intention of stabilizing the relationship between Japan and China to invest capital in China.
