特集 : 韓国経済発展の歴史的条件 : 1960年代日本との比較を中心に1965年の日韓条約締結以後, 韓国は日本, 米国等から資本を導入し, 輸出増進と重化学工業化により高度経済成長を遂げ, 発展途上国段階から中進国段階を経て, 2000年代には先進国段階に移行した。こうした段階変化のなかで日本は経済協力, 民間資本輸出, 貿易等を通じて韓国に大きな影響を与えてきたが, 韓国の対日依存度は徐々に低下し, 日韓関係は垂直的関係から水平的関係に移行していった。しかし, 一方通行の資本輸出, 貿易不均衡の継続等の点で, 日韓関係には依然として非対称的性格が残されている。After the conclusion of the Japan-Korea Basic Treaty in 1965, the Republic of Korea (ROK) achieved high economic growth through the introduction of foreign capital from Japan, the U.S., among others ; an increase in exports; and industrialization of their heavy equipment and chemical firms. ROK transitioned from being a developing country through the stage of a semi-industrialized country to becoming a developed country. Through ODA, capital exports, and trade, Japan had significant influence on this stage-wise transition of ROK. Subsequently, ROK's dependency on Japan gradually decreased. However, asymmetry in the relation between Japan and Korea still remains in terms of one-way capital exports, continuity of trade imbalance, and other economic inequities.

This article attempts to analyze monetary expansion of Japanese imperialism into Manchuria in the period from the Russo-Japanese War up to the First World War. After the Russo-Japanese War, Japanese imperialism began to invade Manchuria, but was unable to maintain its military presence there because of the check by British and American imperialism and Chinese nationalism, and thus chose instead to proceed with economic invasion. The two most important vehicles for this program were the South Manchuria Railway Company, which controlled railway traffic, and the Yokohama Specie Bank, which was in charge of monetary system. This paper aims to clarify the role played by the Yokohama Specie Bank. The bank with many offices in Manchuria was assigned the role of the central bank in the colony-i.e., the role to unify the money system of Manchuria as an integral part of the Japanese money system. The Specie Bank virtually controlled financing for trade of Japanese cotton fabric and Manchurian soy-bean, which were the two major trade items. But due to the complex distribution system within Manchuria, it fell short of penetrating deep into village communities. As for the supply of public loans for the sake of control over public finance of Manchuria-another important means of colonial administration--the Specie Bank, and for that matter Japanese imperialism, was unable to accomplish much due to the lack of capital fund at its disposal. Besides these, there were two additional factors that decisively prevented the Bank from accomplishing its desired money policy. First, on the Japanese side, there was a conflict between the South Manchuria Railway and the Specie Bank over the choice between the gold and the silver standards. The South Manchuria Railway, as an importer of capital fund from the European money market which was on the gold standard, preferred the gold to the silver standard. Japanese traders were also in favor of the gold standard as they wanted to avoid losses caused by fluctuations of the exchange rate between gold and silver. The Specie Bank, on the other hand, found the silver standard more convenient for its planned penetration into the Manchurian silver money market. The second factor was the establishment of a new bank system in Manchuria-e.g., the Mukden Provincial Bank-which issued silver bank notes and obstructed Japan's monetary expansion. After all, Japanese traders preferred gold standard-bank notes issued by the Bank of Japan, whereas Chinese traders used silver standard bank notes issued by provincial banks, with the result that the Yokohama Specie Bank's silver bank notes failed to hold sway over the Manchurian economy as they were expected. Japan was far from successful in unifying the Manchurian money system. It added new kinds of currency to the pre-existing system, only to throw it into a greater confusion.

本共同研究では、制度設計と市場経済の関係性の観点から、20世紀の日本経済を概観し、高度成長期の特徴を捉えた。このため、世界経済およびアジア経済の枠組み、日本の産業構造、産業組織、経済政策、企業間関係、労働市場、消費動向、消費者意識の変化について分析した。その結果、戦後世界の安定化と日本と対アジア関係の再構築、産業政策と産業調整、企業間取引、消費構造の高度化など1950年代から60年代に現れた制度設計と市場経済の安定的で特徴的な様相を明らかにした。
