Cities under Contemporary Japanese Capitalism

Ken-ichi Miyamoto

Japanese Economy, 1987, vol. 16, issue 1, 3-33

Abstract: The character of cities in contemporary Japan is, first of all, represented by the three metropolitan regions. During the 1970s the populations of the principal regional cities grew rapidly, but their characteristics are approaching those of the metropolitan cities of Tokyo, Osaka, and Nagoya. Furthermore, while the character of contemporary Japanese capitalism is seen in the character of the metropolitan regions that are the centers of the economy, the formation of the metropolitan regions can be said to have been achieved through the rapid growth of contemporary Japanese capitalism. In this vein, I wish to proceed with a discussion focused on the metropolitan regions.
