Unipolar Concentration in Tokyo: Causes and Measures

Tatsuo Hatta and Takatoshi Tabuchi

Japanese Economy, 1995, vol. 23, issue 3, 74-104

Abstract: Unipolar concentration in Tokyo has significantly benefited the entire Japanese economy. At the same time, however, it has also produced negative effects, such as traffic congestion and widening inequality in the distribution of wealth due to rising land prices. In this paper, we consider how to augment the benefits of unipolar concentration while minimizing its negative impact.
