| Research Abstract |
In today's knowledge-information oriented society, Japan needs to create a new philosophy for national development. The philosophy should stand by the following principles: to utilize science and technology for human society's co-existing with nature, to downsize large-scale developments into human-scale ones, to change policies for the strong and the centralized to those for the disadvantaged and the local-based. It is essential to horizontally network self-sustaining and decentralized smaller cities in order to replace metropolitan functions with their networked ones. It is also crucial for smaller businesses to develop such mindset that accepts smooth business succession by unrelated people and to keep fostering human resources.
