Problems of Overpopulation and Depopulation

Tsuneo Unno

Japanese Economy, 1975, vol. 3, issue 3, 59-87

Abstract: The biggest task in regional development administration in Japan today is said to be the elimination of overpopulation and depopulation. When was it that these problems of overpopulation and depopulation began to appear on the scene as issues in regional development policy? My personal experience tells me that these two problems did not arise simultaneously; rather, rural depopulation appeared as a policy issue a few years after urban overcrowding was taken up as a serious problem.
