Research Abstract |
This project focuses on urban shrinkage, an issue prevailing among contemporary industrial countries, to search its political and policy implications. Many cities are concerned on the shrinking of population entailed by aging society with a falling birth rate and globalization of the world economy. However, shrinking is not a one-way street to decline. Rather, it offers new opportunities to political actors and policy advocates for finding new ways of urban restructurings through their creative reactions. We tried to specify "what makes policy responses to urban shrinkage divergent among cities", by researching 8 harbor cities in America, France, Germany, and Japan. Consequently we find out that institutional factors as follow matter in making urban policies differentiate: electoral systems, governmental structures-particularly relationship between executive and legislative branches, inter-governmental relations-, and the degree of geographical-functional segmentation.
