Professor Oka published a textbook on environmental economics in 2006, which criticized the energy analysis by Georgescu-Roegen based on the entropy law. However, Oka approves the significance of the entropy law and attempts to construct environmental macroeconomics. This paper will prove that Oka misinterpreted Georgescu-Roegen's analysis and will suggest a direction for constructing environmental macroeconomics based on the entropy law.

There is a similarity in argument between Adam Smith's posthumous essay 'Of the External Senses' and Thomas Reid's Inquiry into the Human Mind. George Berkeley's New Theory of Vision was their common source of thought. The unique argument for 'instinctive perception' which Smith presents at the end of his essay, however, finds its echoes in the opening paragrath on 'Prudence' in his final edtion of The Theory of the Moral Sentiments.

This is based on the paper read at the Economics Seminar, School of Economics, Kwansei Gakuin University on 5 November, 1997 on the occasion of retirement under the age limit of the writer. It traces his studies and teachings in the history of economic thought at Kwansei Gakuin University for about 45 years from 1953. His speciality in the history of economics is widely divided into three fields : (1) Classical political economy including British Mercantilism, (2) Marginal Revolution and the development of modern economics, and (3) the history of American economic thought. In the first field, it focuses on his studies on the economic and social thoughts of Bernard Mandeville, David Hume, Adam Smith, the Scottish Enlightenment, and the Classical economics in general. In the second field, it centers on Marginal Revolution and the formation and development of modern economics, especially on W. S. Jevons, Carl Menger, Leon Walras, Alfred Marshall, John Bates Clark, Irving Fisher, and the lecture of modern economics. In the third field, history of American economic thought, American Neoclassical economics, especially J. B. Clark and I. Fisher, and the American Institutional economics : Thorstein Veblen, W. C. Mitchell, J. R. Commons, John Maurice Clark in particular, and the lecture of history of American economic thought are treated.

In a non-cooperative game of an international environmental technology transfer program, it is quite plausible that the transfer contribution of a donor country and the accommodating effort of a recipient country are "strategic complements" to each other. In this note, we first derive the conditions under which such strategic complementarity arises within a fairly general setup. We then discuss several economic consequences to which this strategic complementarity can lead. In contrast to the case of strategic substitutes, a Stackelberg leadership always leads to Pareto improvement from the Cournot-Nash equilibrium in the case of strategic complements. Moreover, even a unilateral environmental action by either country could result in Pareto improvement in the presence of strategic complementarity.

Metropolitan areas of Japan have recently experienced significant structual changes. The population change exerts a big influence on the growth and decline of the city. In addition, urban deterioration leads to a migration of individuals to the suburbs. This paper inspects the population changes in the Tokyo and Osaka metropolitan areas and explains the close relationship btween urban amenities and migration. It finds that a decentralized urban public policy is necessary to stop cumulative city deterioration.

There are three conflicting views about the relationship between the level of specialization (or diversification) of industrial structure and its growth, namely, MAR externalities, Jacobs' externalities, and Porter's "Industrial cluster". This paper investigates which theory is most applicable to Japanese regional industries by using manufacturing industries' data. In the general machinery industry, which provides common technology to other industries, diversified agglomeration structure positively affects growth (supporting Jacobs' externalities.) However, specialized structure positively affects the growth in the other processing/assembling industries, especially electronics (supporting MAR externalities). Judging from the empirical results, it depends on the character of each industry which theory is applicable. Or, if we see spatial agglomeration of basic processing industries (like general machinery) with the growing industries as an "industrial cluster", the third view advocated by Porter is most applicable.
