在过去的十年里,东京见证了大规模的建设热潮,尽管自1990年以来,东京经历了长期的经济低迷。自20世纪80年代以来,中央政府颁布了一系列建筑法规的修改,允许建造更大的建筑。本文认为,最近私人投资对高层建筑集约化的浪潮是由建筑法规的这些变化引发的,因此城市重组的形式和过程中赢家和输家的分配都是由中央决定的,这与之前规划权力分散的趋势相反。这种中央/地方政府关系的重组可以理解为对治理权力的创造性重新调整,它打乱了决策和解决冲突的既定民主体制框架。这项研究既强调了土地资产在日本发展资本主义中的中心地位,也强调了发展国家独特的制度遗产在构建日本城市治理结构中的持续重要性。
During the past decade, Tokyo has seen a massive building boom, despite a prolonged economic slump since 1990. Since the 1980s, central government has enacted a steady stream of building code changes that allow much larger buildings. This paper argues that the recent wave of private investment in high-rise intensification has been instigated by these changes to building regulations, so that the form of urban restructuring and the distribution of winners and losers in the process are shaped by the central state, a reverse of the previous trend of decentralisation of planning powers. This restructuring of central/ local government relations can be understood as a creative rescaling of governance power that disrupted established democratic institutional frameworks of decision-making and conflict resolution. This study highlights both the centrality of land assets in Japan’s developmental capitalism and the continuing importance of the distinctive institutional legacies of the developmental state in structuring Japanese urban governance.
