2006年，北海道前煤矿小镇Yūbari宣布财务崩溃。本文探讨了崩溃的原因，重点分析了三个因素：矿山关闭后人口减少，以旅游业为基础的复兴战略的失败，以及21世纪初的权力下放政策。它考虑了在日本个人和地区财富差距日益扩大的时代，人口减少和经济衰退对日本“不断缩小的地区”的影响。
In 2006, the former coalmining town of Yūbari in Hokkaido declared financial collapse. This paper explores the reasons for the collapse with a focus on three factors: depopulation following the closure of the mines, the failings of a regeneration strategy based on tourism and decentralisation policy in the early 2000s. It considers the implications of depopulation and economic decline in Japan's ‘shrinking regions’ in an era of increasing wealth divisions in Japan on both personal and regional levels.
