| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study explores the uneven geographical development of area-based communities and the mechanism of this development through recent policies that emphasize the initiative taken by the area-based communities. In particular, the study focuses on the policies of devolution of power to local communities; a questionnaire survey of all local governments (n = 1,741) and field surveys of five local governments in Japan were conducted. According to the survey results, devolution of power to local communities can function well in area-based communities that were already strong before the transference of power . Therefore, it seems that these policies promote the uneven development of area-based communities.
