| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nanbei Takusyoku Co. Ltd. was founded by Sanji Muto (1867-1934) in 1928．Muto was the former President of Kanegafuchi Spinning Co. Ltd. (commonly known as Kanebo). In 1929, Nanbei Takusyoku was involved in businesses related to settling Japanese immigrants in Para Tome-Acu in the Brazilian Amazon River Basin. Presently, agroforestry, which is done in Tome-Acu by Japanese and Japanese descendants, is attracting worldwide attention as it has created benefits in terms of both agricultural income and environmental conservation.
The purpose of this study is to analyze the case of Japanese and Japanese companies in Brazil as it relates to foreign capital, immigrants, and eco-friendly technology. A special emphasis is given to examining the relationship between Muto's Kanebo management system and his immigration program.
