| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study examines the background, process, and impact of the revised Money Lending Business Act (hereinafter "the Act") enacted in 2006, focusing on the interrelationships among six sectors involved: the support practitioners, legislative, administrative, economic, academic, and media sectors. Particularly, the study elucidates how the support practitioners, credited as pivotal in the enactment of the law, were formed under what logic and dynamics, and how they subsequently changed, based on publicly available and unpublished materials and testimonies from those involved. The impact of the Act extends beyond Japan to other Asian societies. By examining how the Japanese experience was received in South Korea and Taiwan, this study provided arguments, concepts, and perspectives for exploring the historical conditions of the Japanese experience as well as its applicability to other Asian societies.
