项目摘要

In the research project funded by the Grant-in-Aid for Exploratory Research of the fiscal years of 2001-2002, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science and Japanese Ministry of Education, I built up some theoretical models of economic development : a model of growth with duality in sexes, financial institutions, and fixed assets. This time, with the research fund for the fiscal years 2003-2004, I wrote five articles as outcomes of this research project. Two of them are the statistical analyses of the field survey research on asset building by SEWA (Self Employed Women's Association, India) members, which survey was carried out in 2001-2002. Furthermore, related subjects such as the concept of cost, social networks, and population dynamics were investigated, and the resulting papers and notes were published. First, the concept of cost was generalized from the concept for firms to that for the whole society. Thus, we can now calculate the cost of each commodity even for models with joint production. Next, in the study of social network, the concept of connectivity is extended in the context of long-run analysis. The concept of"fragility"of social networks was newly defined, and it was actually computed for a concrete numerical example. Third, for the population dynamics, dynamic stability of Leslie model was proved in an elementary and simple way, using a matrix formulation. Now, it is my next task to incorporate these elements in the models of development under construction.To make SEWA more widely known among researchers and students, who are interested in poverty alleviation of developing countries, I organized seminar talks by the staff of SEWA in three universities.More detailed explanation of each paper is given in Section 2 of my Report on Research Results, and that of SEWA seminar talks is in Section 3 of the Report.

在日本科学促进会和日本文部省2001-2002财政年度探索性研究资助项目中，我建立了一些经济发展的理论模型：性别二元增长模型、金融机构二元增长模型、固定资产二元增长模型。这一次，我利用2003-2004财政年度的研究基金，写了五篇文章作为这个研究项目的成果。其中两个是2001-2002年印度自雇妇女协会（SEWA）成员对资产建设进行的实地调查研究的统计分析。此外，还对成本概念、社会网络和人口动态等相关主题进行了调查，并发表了相关论文和笔记。首先，将成本的概念从企业的概念推广到整个社会的概念。因此，即使是联合生产的模型，我们现在也可以计算每种商品的成本。其次，在社会网络的研究中，将连通性的概念扩展到长期分析的背景下。对社会网络的“脆弱性”概念进行了新定义，并对其进行了具体的数值计算。第三，对于种群动态，利用矩阵公式，对Leslie模型的动态稳定性进行了初等、简单的证明。现在，我的下一个任务是把这些因素纳入正在建设的发展模式。为了让对发展中国家扶贫工作感兴趣的研究人员和学生更广泛地了解SEWA，我在三所大学组织了SEWA工作人员的研讨会。每一篇论文更详细的解释在我的Report on Research Results的第2节，SEWA的seminar talks在Report的第3节。
