研究実績の概要 |
The main purpose of this study is to elucidate the regional capability development of Japanese regions through studying export structures, in order to provide directions for effective and efficient regional industrial development. The first year's work was focused on the literature review and data collection, along with a basic analysis. I was able to conduct sufficient literature review from the fields of regional economics, evolutionary economics, and economic geography. In regards to the data collection, I was able to collect a longer period of dataset (planned as 1988 to 2020, actual collection from 1988 to 2022) so that the analysis would be able to reflect a more recent trends of structural change under COVID-19. All 125 customs across Japanese prefectures have been covered, and simple analyses have been tested with the Kyushu area's dataset. I found that the Kyushu area's dataset supported the hypotheses, but will continue to test the hypotheses with the full dataset. The abstract has been submitted to the 19th EAEA (International Convention of the East Asian Economic Association) Conference, to be held in November 2024 in Bangkok, Thailand, and the results will be presented in international conferences not limited to EAEA, in 2024.

理由
Literature review: The researcher was able to conduct the literature review on regional development and export structure development during 2nd and 3rd Quarters of 2023. Even though I expect to continue the literature review in the next year, a major part of the review was completed to support the hypotheses.
Data collection: The applicant was able to collect the regional level trade data, and currently being cleaned-up for analysis. Basic regressions for a part of the dataset has been conducted.
Overall, the project is progressing smoothly, and I expect to finish the analysis and start writing in the next quarter.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
Based on the collected data, I will continue the statistical and econometric analyses in the 2024 2Q. From 2024 2Q, I will also start manuscript writing, and spend a significant time in from 2024 4Q for manuscript editing for publication in an international journal. The abstract has been submitted to the 19th EAEA (International Convention of the East Asian Economic Association) Conference, to be held in November 2024 in Bangkok, Thailand. I am also looking for other conference opportunities, and considering VSGE (Vietnam Symposium in Global Economic Issues) in October 2024. The finished manuscript will be submitted to international journals on regional economies (e.g. Regional Studies, The Japanese Economic Review, Journal of Asian Economies) in the 2025 1Q.

次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
Travel expenses (for conference presentations) and miscellaneous expenses (e.g. editing services) will be spent in the second fiscal year. Also, personnel expenditure and remuneration has not been spent as the data collection process was able to use the university research funding. I am planning to use the personnel expenditure and remuneration for the policy research in the second year, for region/industry-specific industrial/innovation policies, such as policy supports for semiconductor industry in Kumamoto.
