In this paper, the author investigates the philosophical development of Dr. Seijji Tsutsumi's theory of distribution industry and criticism of consumer society. Dr. Tsutsumi was a president of Seibu Department Store and was a founder of the huge Seibu Distribution Group (later renamed as Saison Group), which consisted of approximately 200 companies in numerous industries. He also wrote many economic articles and books on the Distribution Revolution in Japan, in addition to poems and novels. He had a rare distinction of having a high reputation as a practitioner and also as a writer and novelist. This study illustrates his business background as a leader in the retail sector in Japan, dating back to the mid-1950s. Further, the author analyses his writings, including Tsutsumi (1963, 1976, 1977, 1979a, 1979b, 1985, and 1996) and interprets the significant elements of his unique theory of distribution industry. As a conclusion, the author discusses that the Muij business, which is one of the businesses created by Dr. Tsutsumi, has inherited the core concept of his theory and philosophy based on ‘logic of humanity’.

預金取扱金融機関の国内有人店舗数の推移を過去半世紀にわたって振り返ると,およそ期央にピークがあった。店舗数は下り坂に入って四半世紀が経ち,近年では減少ペースを強めている。金融機関の店舗配置行動に影響する要因は複数あるが,かつては銀行店舗行政が強力なコントロールを発揮していた。しかし店舗通達が撤廃された頃には,金融機関の出店意欲は停滞しており,店舗規制緩和が出店を喚起した示唆は過去データ分析からは得られなかった。他方,金融機関合併が店舗数減少に影響していた有意な示唆が得られた。これは近年,地域金融機関の再編と店舗削減が同時並行的に進んでいる事実と整合的な結果であった。1.研究目的と先行研究2.金融機関数と国内有人店舗数の長期推移3.店舗行政と規制緩和4.国内有人店舗数の変化の要因5.業態別の店舗配置行動6.店舗増減数に影響を及ぼす要因分析7.まとめ The aim of this paper is to review the changes in the number of domestic bank branches in the past half century and to study the factors that influenced the number of bank branches. The number of bank branches was formerly controlled by bank regulations, but by the time the regulations were completely abolished, the activity by Japanese banks in opening new branches had already stagnated. Historical long-term data suggested the significant effect that the merger of banks affects the reduction in the number of bank branches. These are consistent with the fact that regional banks have been reorganized and the number of bank branches has been reduced in recent years.

小泉政権当時の2005 年に、無党派層に代わる、新たな概念として筆者が措定した「そのつど支持」は、その後、日本人の政治意識として広く定着した。「そのつど支持」とは、「特定の支持政党を持たず、(選挙のたびに)そのつど政党を選択する」態度を意味する。2009 年の民主党への政権交代以降は、とりわけ、中高年層の「そのつど支持」化が顕著であった。いわゆる無党派層や浮動票とは、若年層の政治意識や投票行動を表象する概念として用いられてきた。こうした意識や態度は、むしろ、中高年層の特性へと転化している。 有権者の「そのつど支持」化は、また、「選挙ばなれ」と表裏の関係にあった。2012 年に自民党が再び政権に復帰してからは、地方選挙で先行してみられた「選挙ばなれ」が国政選挙にも波及してきた。投票率の低落には、政治不信や政党不信と通称される一票のリアリティの消失に加え、社会の無縁化に起因する地域社会の変容も介在している。 本小論の論述スタイルは、仮説-検証の演繹的手法は採用せず、各種の調査結果や統計データの単純比較を通じた経験的解釈に終始する。諸兄のご批判を請いたい。 The term “sonotsudo-shiji” (new independent voter) that I defined at the time of the snap general election in 2005, now seems to have become widely generalized as the political mindset of the general Japanese population. The “sonotsudo-shiji” tendency is significant, especially among middle-aged and elderly voters. The term “independent voter” or “swing voter” has been used to describe the political attitude and voting behavior of young people. However, it is now better used to describe the middle-aged and elderly voter. Their tendency of being “sonotsudo-shiji” is inextricably associated with apathy toward elections. The general election in 2012 showed us that disinterest in local political elections has now spread into the national elections. The decrease in voting turnout in the 2012 general election was caused by a lack of involvement with the local society, and the feeling that a single vote did not count. This is reflected in a distrust of politics and political parties, born out of indifference toward other people. In this report, I present data in support of this hypothesis. I would like to thank you in advance for your comments on this report.

本論文は,近年の中国金融政策を簡潔に概観したうえで,テイラー・ルールによる検証と政策反応関数の推定を行う。テイラー・ルールによって試算された政策金利と実際のコールレートの当てはまり具合は良くないものの,2003年以降,両者の動きがほぼ同調していることが確認できた。政策反応関数の推計では,コールレートはインフレ率と産出量ギャップに有意に反応しているが,為替レートには有意に反応していないという結果が得られた。インフレ率と産出量ギャップの係数はともに1より小さいが,産出量ギャップの方がより高い。これは,中国の金融政策の運営において,物価より景気の方に高いウェートを付けている可能性があることを示していると思われる。

This study analyses the major approaches to frameworks for understanding money. These approaches include those taken by the Marxian, post-Keynesian, and neo-classical schools, and sociologists. The theory of money and credit involves deeply controversial issues. Since the 1970s, financial speculation has been spreading more deeply within global capitalism. The sub-prime mortgage loan problem in the United States was one consequence of this phenomenon. The situation demands an inquiry into the basic question, ‘What is money’ ? In the 2000s, the journal Economy & Society presented an interdisciplinary exchange of opinions and criticism with respect to the traditional understanding of money in mainstream economics, that is, money as the medium of exchange. From a sociological viewpoint, Zelizer(2000) emphasises that money has ‘special’ implications when viewed with regard to different situations, thus it cannot be encapsulated by any single concept. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of post-Keynesian economics, Ingham(2001, 2004) insists that money is the social relation between debts and credits as represented by the money of account. However, from a Marxist viewpoint, Lapavitsas(2005b) understands money as the ‘monopolization of the ability to buy’. Thus, the concept of money has been interpreted in various ways by researchers in different disciplines. Nevertheless, these researchers all conclude that ‘fiat money’ is one of the conditions of money. However, some Japanese Marxian political economists have developed an alternative view which states that pure ‘fiat money’ cannot be explained in principle and does not exist in practice. On the basis of these Japanese studies, we analyse the relationship among these views and attempt to unravel the basic question, ‘What is money’ ?

This research examines the relationship between target costing and profit management. Target costing is very closely linked with a company’s long-term profit and product planning. Target costing is a comprehensive strategic profit management system. To accomplish this research, we chose to analyze the case of Fanuc. Target costing is introduced as a technique that aims to manage product costs throughout the design stage. Since a large portion of costs are incurred in the design stage, manufacturers are advised to focus on the design process to lower the costs. When manufacturers need to focus on the profitability of products, ROS(Return on Sales) provides a better measure. The desired profit is determined on the basis of the company’ s desired ROS. ROS includes break-even point ratio. Therefore, we divide total costs into variable costs and fixed costs. In Fanuc,“Weniger Teile”(which means to reduce component parts) is a tool for reducing variable costs. The ratio of variable costs is 50% and the ratio of fixed costs is 15%. Fanuc sets 35% for ROS and 30% as its break-even point ratio. Thus, the second set of ratios should be realized if one to accomplish the first set. Fanuc succeeds in combining target costing with profit management.

This paper examines the attitudes of the Minseito Party towards issues concerning the emperor and the imperial household at the time of the TANAKA Giichi Cabinet when the party was an opposition party. The paper takes this theme as part of the study of party politics during the period of party cabinets, and intends to rebalance the evaluation of the Seiyukai Party and the Minseito Party.At the beginning of the TANAKA Cabinet, the Minseito Party advocated the parliamentary government and the party cabinet, and it maintained that the emperor should not take practical part in politics. The party also criticized the political influence of the house of peers and the privy council.Later, the Minseito Party took issues concerning the emperor and the imperial household to attack the TANAKA Cabinet. The basic logic used by the party coincided with the attitude of the party at the beginning, though the manner of arguments was rather restrained. The party also sided with the house of peers and the privy council when they blamed the cabinet with issues concerning the emperor and the imperial household.

日本では, 強盗・脅迫・不法侵入のような街頭犯罪は賞賛すべき低い率にあるが, ホワイト・カラー犯罪は高い率にある。日本文化の諸特徴が日本社会に見られる違法行為の水準を説明してくれると期待している者達は, 二つの犯罪率の食い違いによって試されている。本稿は, 日本社会の上層にいる者達の犯罪に関するエピソードを概観し, 街頭犯罪を抑制している共同体主義のエートスがこの国の商業や政治の領域にまでは及んでいないことを示す。The discrepancy in Japan between the admirably low rate of street crimes, such as robbery, assault, and burglary, and the elevated rate of white-collar offenses challenges those who look to the characteristics of Japanese culture to explain the levels of law-breaking in the society. The article reviews episodes of upperworld crime in Japan and suggests that the communitarian ethos that inhibits street offenses does not carry over into the country's commercial and political realms.

After the Second World War, the Kiryu textile production region developed as a production center and exporter of textiles. Kiryu then underwent great changes caused by various events including the Textile Industry Problem between Japan and the United States and the Nixon Shock. It is known that during the same period, the neighboring regions of Isesaki, Ota, Tatebayashi, Ashikaga, and Sano were quick to attract automotive and electrical industrial factories. However, Kiryu was able to undergo only a small degree of industrial development. This difference was due to geographical constraints of Kiryu, and the influences of the formerly powerful fiber production industry. This historical difference is the cause of the modern challenges to Kiryu City’s industrial development. These points will be further researched to present the current condition of Kiryu City’s industry and challenges for future industrial development. This paper will analyze the current condition of industry in Kiryu City and determine analytical perspectives for future research.

While over the past several decades the Okun's law has been applied to the Japanese economy in various ways, a few attempts had been made to create time series of potential output and GDP gap by utilizing the Okun's law. One reason behind this may be a seeming instability of the Okun's law coefficient in Japan. Furthermore there are many economics professors and researchers who regard the Okun's law as too volatile to get reliable evidence for analyzing important topics like GDP gap, potential output, and unemployment. However, the seeming instability of the Okun's coefficient can be removed by appropriately taking into account a change in potential growth and important structural changes during the estimation period. This paper aims at showing the usefulness of the Okun's law in the Japanese economy for analyzing price development and considering ways to overcome deflation by demonstrating how accurately can Okun's-lawbased GDP gap follow inflation/deflation development in the past 30 years.
