全球化是当前一个热门话题，而连接现代工业化和全球化社会的最重要手段之一就是航空运输。自20世纪50年代末以来，日本一直在扩大其全国各地的机场基础设施。然而，机场系统目前的特点不能仅仅归因于自然和区域经济特征。一个特别有趣和具有启发性的问题涉及日本机场政策的参与者及其战略和利益。因此，本文将重点关注构成日本所谓“铁三角”的政治家、部长级官僚和商人。我们将着眼于机场政策，以期深入了解这些行为者之间的关系网络、他们的权力结构以及这些网络和结构在最近的政治改革条件下的稳定程度。
Globalization is currently a hotly discussed topic, and one of the most important means of linking modern industrialized and globalized societies is air transport. Since the late 1950s Japan has been expanding its airport infrastructure all over the country. The current peculiarities of the airport system cannot be attributed solely to natural and regional economic features, however. A particularly interesting and revealing question relates to the actors involved in Japanese airport policies and their strategies and interests. This paper will therefore focus on the politicians, ministerial bureaucrats and businessmen who form Japan's so-called “iron triangle”. We will look at airport policies in hopes of gaining insights into the networks of relationships between these actors, their power structures and how stable these networks and structures are under the conditions resulting from the recent political reforms.
