| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this research was to make fresh estimates of pre-Meiji Japan’s GDP per capita and to conduct a comparative analysis on the basis of the new evidence. Based on new estimates for population in 1600 and a new estimation methodology, we have set out a new series of GDP per capita and its sectoral breakdowns for the period between 1600 and 1874, which will replace the estimates by A. Maddison. Our estimates in 1990 international dollars for 1600, 1721 and 1874 are $659, $669 and $1,013. They are 27%, 17% and 34% larger than Maddison’s respectively. While Maddison’s tended to show that Tokugawa-period growth was monotonic, our estimates are more articulated: the 1600-1721 period saw no increase but the 1721-1874 period exhibited a little stronger growth, while structural change was more pronounced in the first than in the second period. In an international perspective, Japan’s early modern performance was modest and steady but remained so even in the late 19th century.
