Outline of Final Research Achievements

What kind of influence does the Okinawa Development Promotion Block Grant have on processes of Okinawan politics and public administration?
We have discovered that this grant system does not have positive impacts on “management by objectives” for assembly members and top public officials within the prefectural government and its municipalities. As regards, negative impacts of the grant system on Okinawan autonomy, we have found that the central government uses the grant system to leverage political control within local governments. As a result of this influence, the Okinawa Development Promotion Block Grant has very little impact on improving the actual ethical management of local governments, but, instead, serves a way to legitimize the Central government’s compensation politics that seeks either to maintain the existing military base structure or, in the case of Henoko, to expand it.
