After graduating from the Graduate School of Economics at the University of Tokyo in 1980, KAMII Yoshihiko got tenure as lecturer of labor economics at Saitama University, a national university near Tokyo. He was promoted to associate professor in 1983, and to professor in 1994. He was elected to dean of Faculty of Economics in 2002, serving six years. In 2008 he was elected to President of Saitama University and served six years until March 2014.Judging from his career, his life seems to be a typical academic success story, but in reality, it is a long story of severe setback and dramatic comeback. In this essay I examine what his career means to Japan's labor studies and evaluate his contributions to labor research.

This study is reviewing the business strategy of Hitachi which is leveraging its leadership in the packaged-based infrastructure export business in the global railway market. The study is also trying to identify the best way for all Japanese companies seeking success in the field. The advantage for companies in the railway market is that it requires total solutions and thus a comprehensive range of expertise from heavy electrical machinery to parts. However, as far as hardware and software are concerned, only qualified companies can enter the market. Japanese companies already have technological capabilities but still lack sufficient total solution experiences and field records required in the global railway business, including planning, financing, EPC, O&M, and management. For the companies to be successful in the business and to enjoy a global share, they should learn from the European Big 3 and cooperate with global companies to form a team to achieve positive results as a strategic alliance.

さいたま市の見沼田んぼ地域では,公有地化推進事業が実施されている。農地の管理を委託された市民団体が,水田や畑を耕作し,緑地保全のための市民活動が盛んである。本稿では,見沼田んぼの公有地化推進事業の導入に至った歴史的な経緯を考察するとともに,現在の公有地の管理と利用の実態を明らかにする。市民団体などに委託された土地では,市民が共同して無農薬,有機農業を実践し,自然環境保全がはかられている事例を報告する。さらに2012年からは公有地の賃貸制度も導入され,公有地化推進事業に新たな展開も見られていることが注目される。
