Economic Theory for Urban Reform and Provincial Autonomy

这篇摘要报道了我们的部分研究成果。由于空间的限制，很多都被砍掉了。许多学者对这个项目做出了贡献，并报告了他们的结果。大多数直接结果在单独的封面上给出，作为贡献者的论文集合。有了这个项目，我们可以参加国际会议，展示我们的成果。此外，该项目对在韩国和台湾等海外举办会议也很有帮助。我们还在国内召开会议，向神户和冲绳的一些国内学者讨论和展示我们的成果。城市改革是目前日本政府的首要任务之一，我们的项目也受到了很多人的关注。我们希望通过扩大我们的团队，继续我们的研究工作，为城市改革的真正需要做出贡献。

This abstract reports a part of our research achievement. Many had to be cut because of the space constraint. Many scholars contributed to this project and reported their results. The most of the immediate results are given in the separate cover as collection of papers by the contributors.With this project, we could attend international conferences to present the results. Also the project was very helpful to conduct conferences overseas, such as Korea and Taiwan. We also had domestic conferences to discuss and present our results to some domestic scholars in Kobe and Okinawa.Urban reform is on top of the present Japanese government priority list and our project collected a lot of attention from various people. We hope to continue our research effort by expanding the group we have and contribute for the real need of urban reform.
