Outline of Final Research Achievements |
After creating and analyzing a database of 3,939 Edo merchants, we found that their situation was very different from the prevailing view: namely, an extremely intense entry and exit with a mean continuance of 15.7 years, and an exchange of trade rights (“stocks”) not through blood relationships but through money. Additionally, based on an analysis of business types and shop locations, we found a bipolarized structure, with shops trading in daily necessities such as charcoal and rice having expanded widely throughout all of Edo, while shops trading in luxury goods such as dry goods and medicines were concentrated in the vicinity of Nihonbashi.
