Research Abstract

This Project have explored the sociological meanings of the urban renewal projects in the Japanese Mega-Cities.
(1) We have gathered the actual informations and analyzed the changing face of the inner-city communities in Central Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe, Hiroshima from the viewpoints of the following title : the decline and revitalization of the inner-city communities in contemporary Japan.
(2) The specific innercity communities, IKEBUKURO,NIPPORI (TOKYO), IKUNO-KU (OSAKA) have experienced the living together of the New Asian foreigners from overseas countries, China, Taiwan, Koreas and Others.
(3) There was intense debate about fieldwork methodology for elucidating Asian newcomers'actual living conditions in the Central Tokyo districts, although the research data, gathered from in-depth intervien over an extended period, vividly highlighted the newcomers'inarticulate voices.
(4) In response to the tremendous changes in Japan's urban and Commonity life, we have to become concerned with many of the broader changes occuring in post-industrial society including the effects of cross-national migration.
As a result, there is a great interest in comparative perspectives, especially of overseas Asian ethnic enclaves.
As it to confirm that that the city is now seen as a global society, the final project (1994) highlighted this theme.
