Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Since the 1990s, Japan’s national land development policy has shifted from balanced development to a policy of “selection and concentration.” This study aims to examine the social and spatial impact of this policy change on metropolises, with a primary focus on Tokyo. Japanese large cities in various stages of urbanization have experienced a population resurgence in their urban core areas at almost the same time. The policy of “selection and concentration” into large cities, especially, Tokyo’s urban core areas, has induced redevelopment, thus resurgence of urban cores. Central Tokyo has expanded its role as the permanent dwelling place of people working in the Tokyo metropolitan area, rather than a temporary residence for young migrants from surrounding areas. The social class of new residents in central Tokyo is considerably higher than that of previous residents. Relative to Tokyo, other large cities such as Nagoya have experienced more moderate change.
