| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a method to analyze interregional disparity based on multiple attributes and applied it to the regional disparity in Japan. For this purpose, we proposed a simple procedure for analyzing the social welfare with different demographics. In addition, developing an analytical framework in which individual utility depends on income, education, health and safety, we investigated the distribution of regional welfare in Japan from 1980 to 2010 . As a result, we have shown that not only income but also other attributes such as safety and education should be considered in order to improve the social welfare.
