Research Abstract

This study aims at analyzing the process of the formation and development of sustainable forest management from the Meiji-era to the Taisho-era relate to the process of modernizing the land tenure system and the socio-economic structural reform and changes in mountainous areas. Central to this issue is the clarification of the historical and regional situation of the process of modernizing the land tenure system especially both on land tax reform in mountainous areas and on the project of dividing forestlands into government and private-ownership.
This study focused on the process of the project of dividing forestlands into government and private-ownership especially both on the Kamiji-yama and the Shimaji-yama national forests and this study clarified following facts. The Mie prefectural government had adopted a policy on disposing national forests reflecting the contemporary situation of the utilization of forestlands, and there were old cocuments of making requests on disposing the n … More ational forest (third-class) of Sugashima village and on privatizing the Osugidani national forest (first-class) left. After the land tax reform office given an official notice of Otsu No.11 on Noveber in 1875, on the occasion of carrying out the division into annual coupes on forestry, prefectural government still adopted a stance of attaching importance to a history and a traditional practice, just like Uji-Toshiyori committee ruled both mountains and villager's utilized them in pre-modern times. Moreover, provinial government strongly objected to transfer both mountains under the ministry of the interior's direct management and stuck her viewpoint that they were once under the rule of Odoshiyori. These the Mie prefectural gobernment's attitudes toward forestlands through the process of land tax reform also show the process of establishing the historical conditions on forming large-scale private forest management from the Meiji-era to the Taisho-era.
And also we made the catalog on the old documents belonging to the Horiuchi family in Iitaka, Mie prefecture. Less
