项目摘要

This research has three purposes: 1. the analysis of the reorganization of regional political structure caused by the change of electoral system; 2. examining how problems in the former system changed in the new system; 3. clarifying the meaning of political regions by tracing back the changes of electoral systems to Meiji era(in Chapter 1 in the Report). The research results are shown as follows. 1. Voting returns of the 41st general election in 1996 was studied geographically in relation to seven types of constituencies(Chapter 4 in the Report). And local political systems and local communities experienced few changes after the electoral system changed(Chapter 5 in the Report). 2. The relations between single member constituencies and the former prulal member constituencies were considered(Chapter 3 in the Report).3. I followed the changes of electoral systems in the House of Representatives in Japan, then analyzed temporal changes of population balances among constituencies. The result was that before the malapportionment was went to a suit for the first time in 1963, population were apportioned strictly among prefectures although population balances among constituencies were malapportioned. The reason was that municipal districts were never divided and constituencies which included island were independent ones. That means municipal districts were considered important rather than population balances.

本研究有三个目的：1、分析选举制度变迁引发的地区政治格局重组； 2.检查旧系统中的问题在新系统中有何变化； 3.通过追溯明治时代的选举制度变迁，明确政治区域的含义（报告书第一章）。研究结果如下。 1. 对1996年第41届大选的投票结果进行了地理研究，涉及七类选区（报告书第4章）。选举制度改变后，地方政治制度和地方社区变化不大（报告第五章）。 2. 考虑单一议员选区与前独立议员选区之间的关系（报告第3章）。 3．我跟踪了日本众议院选举制度的变化，分析了选区人口平衡的时间变化。其结果是，在1963年第一次分配不均问题提起诉讼之前，虽然各选区之间的人口平衡存在分配不均问题，但人口分配还是严格地在都道府县之间进行的。原因是市辖区从未划分，包括岛屿在内的选区都是独立的。这意味着市辖区被认为比人口平衡更重要。
