| Research Abstract |
Why has the locality now come to be talked much about? A number of examples will be given below to clarify the correlation between the management of a private university and locality. Kitanihongakuin University, Oshu University, Honshu University, and Kyushugakuin University are all the universities that have no longer been run under these names. But these universities themselves never ceased to exist. Kitanihongakuin Univ. changed over to Asahikawa Univ., Oshu Univ. over to Fuji Univ., and Honshu Univ. to Nagano Univ. after reorganizing its department of economics into the faculty of industrial sociology. Meanwhile, Kyushugakuin Univ. continues to exist as Daiichi-Kogyo Univ.
Among the reasons why these universities collapsed, as pointed out in the "comparative sociological research concerning the collapse and reproduction of private universities", the lack of "locality" is that common to them all. Needless to say, shortsighted management policies and scarce establishment funds are among the major causes of their collapse. It seems, however, undeniable that a basic "locality-free" concept of management is a more decisive factor.
