In The Great Transformation, of which first-edition was published in the same year as Hayek's The Road to Serfdom (1944), Polanyi's opposition to neoliberal credo comes from his interpretation of the history of industrial society in the nineteenth and early twentieth century, when there occurred great crises and upheaval of market society; the Great Recession, unemployment problems in labor market, instabilities of financial market, crisis of democracy, economic nationalism, fascism, and great wars. This paper deals with controversial points between Polanyi's arguments and neoliberal projects from the view point of 21th century. Neoliberal credo is a term connected with an intellectual movement and new belief or ideology originating in the late 1930s that should be distinguished from the original laissez-faire liberalism. The former was born from the reflections of the dead lock of the latter. Unlike the latter, the former requires a strong state authority that has the capacity to resist "spontaneous" social protection movements in the product, labor, and financial markets. And therefore it can become openly anti-democratic in its defense and implementation of the will of the market. In other words, neoliberal credo orientates various projects of "planning for competitive market system" for creating an environment in which private interests can flourish. Neoliberal credo came to be associated mainly with the ideas of Walter Lippman, and such Austrian economists as Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich Hayek. It grew in oppositions not only to socialism but to the spirits of New Deal and political thinking or public opinions of Welfare States, and spread to the Unites States in the early postwar years. Hereafter 1950s it founds fertile ground initially at the University of Chicago, with Milton Freedman and his associates. The obvious consequences of neoliberal policies since 1970s are the increasing market instabilities reminiscent of the 1930s, as well as a growing loss of democratic control. According to Polanyi, completely unfettered markets lacking social control were destructive for the livelihood of common people and eventually generated social reactions that sought to intervene in market system more securely in the societal space. Polanyi'thesis is that neoliberal projects would be eventually never-ending and failed incomplete with social destructions. Also Polanyi paid strong attention to the survival of neoliberal credo in its deadlock. Without a deep understanding and analysis of neoliberal projects, as Polanyi did in his time, we cannot get over the wall.

20世紀の危機の時代を生きた経済学者,ポランニー,ケインズ,ペヴァリッジ,ラーナー,ミーゼス,ノイラート,ハイエク,ロビンズらにとって,大恐慌やファシズムや世界戦争といった自由主義の危機と資本主義システムの持つ悪弊(通貨の不安定化,緊縮財政,増大する格差,大量失業,不安定な就労形態)の諸問題に正面から向き合う課題は,共通していた。これらの点を踏まえて本稿では,20世紀が経験した平和と自由と民主主義の危機の解釈をめぐって争点となる,ポランニーの「社会的保護」の考え方を明らかにする。そして,市場社会における制約された社会的保護とその可能性に照明を当てることによって,二重運動の思想的次元を問う。最後に1920年代の社会民主党市政下のウィーンに思想的起源があるポランニーの「社会的自由」の概念に立ち返りつつ,『大転換』最終章「複雑な社会における自由」の諸論点を検討し,「福祉国家と自由」の問題圏を考察する。

ライフスタイルの多様化,社会環境の変化に伴ない食行動や生活習慣が変化してきている.今回その中で,青年期における食行動や生活習慣こどのような変化が起こっているかを知るために,給食管理実習で作成した昼食を喫食した学生に対しアンケート調査を実施し,検討を行った.また給食管理実習で作られた昼食が喫食者の食行動や生活習慣にどのような教育効果を与えたのかを検討した.結果は,男女間では,給食管理実習で作成した献立を家で作りたいと思う項目においては男子より女子が高い数値(男子VS女子;平均値2.48 VS 2.89)となり,便通の項目においては女子より男子が高い数値(2.84 VS 2.25)となった.このことは男女の意識や生活スタイルからの違いの表れだと思われる.学年別においては,朝食の欠食や昨日の運動量の項目において,2年次生の方が1年次生より低い数値(1年次生VS 2年次生;平均値3.12 VS 2.81, 2.38 VS 2.12)となった.学科別では,全体的に栄養士コースの学生よりも生活科学科生の平均値が低く,生活科学科生に対する栄養教育のありかたを再検判する必要性を感じた.料理様式別では,全てにおいて和風料理が良い結果を出しており,昨今のヘルシー志向が伺える.女子学生全体の嗜好,生活習慣の質問項目の相関行列では,本学の給食を摂取するようになって食生活が変わったことが伺え,学生に対し給食管理実習の食事を通じて食行動,生活晋直の改善を促すことが出来だのではないかと思われた.このことより給食管理実習における喫食者に対する教育効果があることが示唆された.

Drive video recorders (DRs) have been installed on a plenty number of the taxicabs in large cities in Japan. This paper discusses how to carry out a detailed traffic accidents analysis using drive video recorder data obtained in Tokyo. The sequential motions of the cars concerned before and after the crash are illustrated throughout a process in the case studies of two traffic accidents. The causes of the accidents are discussed as well as measures to prevent the accidents and the DR data requirements for effective analysis based on the motion picture and the log data recorded by the commercial DRs. This newly-developed approach makes those possible to carry out the reproduction of the accident process, the estimation of the causes and the background factors, and the consideration of the preventive safety measures. It is more effective to make such analysis by using not only the DR data but also the Internet resources such as a map, an aerial photograph and other information. The requirements of DR hardware and DR data for the proper analysis of the accidents were also examined.

Henry Clay [1883-1954] was known as a strong advocate of “rationalisation” in the decade of the 1920s. In 1933 he was appointed to an economic adviser of Montague Norman who was the governor of the Bank of England. The purpose of this paper is to examine Clay's ideas regarding the industry, economic organisation, and co-operation that evolved in the period from 1916 to 1929.Clay lectured on economics for the Worker's Educational Association between 1909 and 1917, and published a book entitled Economics: an Introduction for the General Reader [1916]. Clay's intention was to explain the social arrangements which make the business transaction “possible.” For Clay, economics should be the study of business in its social aspect; it is the object of economics to explain such arrangements in detail and to show how the system works, and economists should study what points of contact the economic order has with the political order, and how far the economic order harmonies with the moral order. Criticizing “a survival from the period of orthodox laissez faire, ” Clay suggested that the object of economics was not the advocacy of the present economic system. Focusing on specialisation and the production system's dependence on anticipated demand, Clay treated difficulties such as severe fluctuations, over-production, and the unemployment that accompanied them as “imperfections of co-operation.” Clay closely evaluated the social role of businessmen in organizing and co-ordinating industry both efficiently and morally, because they prevented those difficulties. In addition, Clay insisted that the economic organisation in the past had been moralized by the action of the State quite as much as through the economic actions of individuals; a few examples would be the reform of the early factories, the abolition of infant labour in mines, the regulation of dangerous trades, and the prevention of deleterious adulteration, all of which had needed the intervention of the State.After the First World War, the economic conditions and circumstances dramatically changed. Clay came to consider that the most urgent problem was how to reconstruct the British industry. Immediately following the war, Clay insisted on the need for the imperative leadership of government to reset an industrial order for peace (Clay 1918). However, the government did not take such measures. So Clay blamed the difficulties of the post-war unemployment problem and those of depressed industries on the mismanagement of the government including the return to the gold standard (Clay 1929a, 1929b). The greater comparative depression of the export industries was one of the most striking features of the post-war period. In late 1920s, Clay suggested “rationalisation”: the regeneration of private enterprise or the amalgamation of small businesses by banks. Clay regarded the banks to have the ability to reorganize finance and give strategic knowledge to firms, both of which were necessary for efficient management.

As did his many contemporary thinkers Karl Polanyi (1886-1964), in the last chapter of his The Great Transformation under the title of “Freedom in a Complex Society, ” dealt with the problem of freedom. In the keen distinction from the ordinal interpretation that the tendency “from laissez-faire to state intervention” or “from individualism to collectivism” directly led to Fascism, Polanyi described the institutional or historical origins of that crisis in the light of his “double movement” interpretation of the nineteenth century industrial society.According to him, the problem of freedom in his time arose on two levels: the institutional and the moral or religious. How is the “free society” reorganized? On the institutional level, Polanyi suggested that the improvement of industrial conditions and employment through the support of planning and control were important. On the moral and religious level, a new view of freedom was needed. It was in this regard that Polanyi respected Robert Owen, because Owen not only rejected the identification of freedom with the mere liberation of profit motives or with “individualization”, but favored the reconstruction of humanity and freedom in the form of “society as a whole”.

In order to keep a highly safe and reliable system of car driving, it is important that the system would be considered as a man-machine system including not only the feature of vehicle movement but also human perception, cognition, and motion of a driver. In this paper, it is examined to clarify the relation between feature of eye movements and driving behavior in conventional and unconventional situation by the experiments using the driving simulator and the eye tracking system. The measurements of time histories of eye movements were performed in the situation of different traffic regulation by the simulator. It is recognized in both turns that typical patterns of eye movements in horizontal axis appeared between the start and end of the turns. It is found from the time histories of eye movements by synchronizing that of vehicle data that the appearances of fixations were distributed uniformly on the trajectories of vehicle by trained drivers from the start of turning to the end, while the appearance of fixation by untrained drivers are concentrated in the beginning of turning or the end. These facts mean that the untrained driver did not receive visual information during the operation of turning, therefore the trajectories of vehicle by untrained driver showed the overshooting in the right turn and undershooting in the left turn.

Drive recorders have been used more frequently in Japan on the transportation vehicle such as taxicabs, buses and trucks than before. The drive recorders can record the driving data including motion pictures in the traffic accidents and near-accidents, which are considered as “dangerous data”. Analysis and application of safety education using the “dangerous data” are useful to prevent traffic accidents. The drive recorder, however, can record a large number of “not dangerous data” which are not derived from the accident or near-accident data when the car passes the undulation or bumps on the road. The current useful method to extract the “dangerous data” exactly from all the raw data is the human observation and classification of the data while some automatic methods have been developed, which are not very exact to classify the data. The authors show a new method of automatic classification of the drive recorder data into more than two categories including “accidents”, “near-accidents” and “bound” etc., by using the waveforms of the acceleration data. The method is much more effective and reliable than the current automatic methods and it enables to build an automatic processing system for mass data from drive recorders to be classified exactly.
