太平洋战争后，日本发起了一项全国性的努力，在100多个城市重建战争破坏地区。一个独特的例子是，广岛在原子弹爆炸后得到重建，尽管整个城市遭到破坏，但它作为一个和平纪念城市得到复兴。虽然广岛能够恢复其一度被夷为平地的市中心的活力，但最近的重建案例，特别是新自由主义的重建案例，却未能做到这一点。因此，本研究通过对规划和历史文献的分析，阐明了战前参与广岛本通商业街重建的店主和地方规划当局的作用，并强调了他们对恢复商业街活力的贡献。本研究利用实地调查和档案调查，追踪了原子弹爆炸后广岛本通商业街商店的改造和重建情况。在此基础上，战后的规划保持了本通的功能和结构，战前的店主通过参加规划审议会议和组织自己来鼓励企业和游客返回，为重建做出了贡献。这项研究的结果突出了重建规划和当地公民的倡议在恢复受战争破坏地区的生计方面的作用。
In the aftermath of the Pacific War, Japan launched a national effort to rebuild war-damaged areas in over a hundred cities. One unique example is the reconstruction of Hiroshima after the atomic bombing and its revival as a peace memorial city despite the city-wide destruction. While Hiroshima was able to restore vitality to its once-razed city centre, more recent reconstruction cases, especially neoliberal ones, have failed to do so. Therefore, this study analyses planning and historical documents to clarify the roles of pre-war shop owners and local planning authorities which were involved in the reconstruction of Hiroshima Hondōri Commercial Street and highlights their contributions to the revival of the street’s vitality. The study utilised field and archival surveys to trace the post-transformation and rebuilding of shops in Hiroshima Hondōri Commercial Street after the atomic bombing. Based on that, the post-war planning maintained Hondōri’s function and structure, shop owners from pre-war time have contributed to the reconstruction by joining planning deliberation meetings and organising themselves to encourage the return of businesses and visitors. The findings of this study highlight the role of reconstruction planning and local citizens’ initiatives in restoring livelihood to war-torn areas.
