Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research analyzed, from the legal aspect, how the relationship between "market and government" is developing under the current international economic relations. For that purpose, the research explored four issues: (i) progress of government procurement disciplines, (ii) international development of the concept of "public services", (iii) government intervention to digital industries, and (iv) strategies for infrastructure development. During the research period, partly due to the COVID-19 outbreak and the advancement of strategic economic statecraft, we found that there are gradual expansion of intervention to markets by governments. In the case of government procurement, for instance, there were some movements to strengthen subsidy regulations in certain situations. However, those regulations were with unilateral nature, and it is questionable whether those unilateral actions would be accepted by the international society in general.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究では、国際的な経済情勢の変化は、政府が市場に介入する機会を拡大する形で構造変化をもたらしているが、多くの国が単独で独善的な行動を進めており、今までのような国際的に規律を発展させる機運が弱まっている危険な状態であることを指摘してきた。我が国においても、他国の動向に合わせた経済政策が必要があることは論を俟たないが、過度な一方的な行動を抑制することにも注力する必要があることを明確にすることを試みた。このように、多数国間枠組と一方主義が併存する時代において、自由貿易協定などの小規模な枠組みを活用しつつ、多数国的枠組につなげる方策を模索したことに学術的・社会的意義があると思われる。
