东京位于世界上最大的集合城市的中心，这个城市在整个世纪的后半叶继续发展。它仍然是日本的政治，企业，教育和文化中心。在这篇文章中，作者根据其日益明显地融入世界资本流动和公司控制体系的情况来考察这个大都市，这反映在20世纪80年代后半期土地价格的异常上涨，随后是同样严重的衰退。在试图解释为什么这种冲击可以在没有更大程度的社会混乱的情况下发生时，作者将东京与对企业利益和资本流动全球化影响其他城市的变化的解释区分开来。然后，作者讨论了城市空间公司化的增加对城市居民的影响，特别是对市中心地区的影响。最后，作者考察了通常与资本全球化相关的社会趋势及其对城市动态的影响--如贵族化和绅士化趋势--并提出了这些趋势在东京不如其他世界城市明显的一些原因。
Tokyo stands at the center of the largest conurbation in the world, one that has continued to grow throughout the second half of the century. It remains the political, corporate, educational, and cultural heart of Japan. In this article, the author examines the conurbation in light of its evermore pronounced insertion into world systems of capital flow and corporate control, reflected in an exceptional rise in land prices in the second half of the 1980s, followed by an equally severe slump. In seeking to explain why this buffeting could occur without a greater degree of social dislocation, the author sets Tokyo apart from interpretations of changes that have affected other cities as a result of the globalization of corporate interests and capital flows. The author then discusses ways in which the increased corporatization of urban space has affected the city's inhabitants, with a particular focus on inner-city areas. Finally, the author examines social trends normally linked to the globalization of capital and its effects on urban dynamics—trends such as pauperization and gentrification—and suggests some reasons why these trends have not been as apparent in Tokyo as in other world cities.
